Jay-Z Slams Noel Gallagher as "Ignorant"

Jay-Z has slammed Noel Gallagher for criticizing his appearance at the Glastonbury festival. The Oasis rocker had previously said:

“I’m not having hip-hop at Glastonbury. It’s wrong. Jay-Z’s got no chance.”

However, Jay-Z reportedly wowed tens of thousands of fans with his performance on Saturday, June 28, 2008.

Before the show, Jay-Z said:

“You know that sometimes remarks are made out of ignorance. If Noel Gallagher had seen me perform and said that then I’d understand it. That is a personal opinion and I have no bearing on how he feels. You know - it’s just not your taste. But he has never seen me perform. I’m sure, or else he wouldn’t say that. We will see what happens.”

I guess Jay-Z proved everyone wrong. I still wouldn’t have wanted to see him perform because I’ve seen bits on award shows and YouTube and that’s plenty. Perhaps the times have changed and the fans attending Glastonbury want more of a variety of music now though.

Okay, and then next Hip Hop concert let’s open with Oasis! It was egotistical of J-Z in the extreme. His act did not fit the venue.
