Over the past few days it looks like Jay-Z has finally decided to come out of hibernation as the iconic rapper made a surprise appearance at Tom Brady's Hall Of Fame ceremony just last week and last night once again shocked an unsuspecting audience when he joined Alicia Keys at the 77th Annual Tony Awards.
With their classic song “Empire State of Mind” recently hitting 1 billion streams, Alicia Keys decided it was only fitting to celebrate the milestone by bringing Jay-Z along while she and the cast hit Broadway. Hell's Kitchen they did their job on stage. Stepping out in baggy jeans, Timbs and a durag, Jay-Z channeled his 2009 self and took everyone on a trip down memory lane as Alicia Keys belted out the classic chorus after he finished spitting his verse.
Are baggy jeans officially back in style? We need confirmation from stylists and fashionistas out there so we can dust off the old-school Girbaud jeans we have in storage. I am just saying'.
Now that they're back on stage, are Alicia Keys and Jay-Z up to something in the studio? We don't know for sure, but Alicia Keys definitely teased that something was up as she took to her official Instagram page to post a video of herself hanging out with the Hip-Hop Gawd. The caption read: “1 Dream. 1 Song. 1 billion streams 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank you! We love you. What's next….👀🤫”
Whatever Alicia Keys and Jay-Z are working on, you already know it's going to be produced by Alicia Keys' famous husband, Swizz Beatz.
