Featured Review

I attended my first Jay-Z concert in Columbus, OH, on Oct 28, 2009. I enjoyed all the opening acts, but Jay-Z came out and gave one of the best shows I have EVER attended. The concert started on time and each performer gave 100%.

I will never forget that night as long as I live. Thank you to all of the opening acts and thank you to Jay-Z for coming to Columbus, OH.

From start to finish the show was amazing! His stage presence, the lighting, the Roc Boys (The Band), the black on black, the jewelry, the shades, the swag, and the energy were all official! He set the standard for what I expect to see at any hip hop/rap show so high that I'm afraid it will be hard for me to be impressed by any other artist I see live. If you're a fan of Jay-Z, his live show is a must see experience! I'm lookin' forward to seeing his show again in February!

This was a great show. It started on time. There were not long breaks in between performances. Great price for the quality. I have never paid this little for a concert featuring such a popular headliner. Would definitely recommend to a friend, Jay-Z fans, or anyone straggling the fence. Nothing like live music! Jay-Z was great, inspiring, and empowering to young, college students.

Jay-Z puts on an incredible show. The acoustics inside Memorial are absolutely terrible. I really wish that this even could have been held in a different venue. I won't attend another concert at this location.

Jay-Z is the icon of Hip Hop. He is the poster artist for the genre, and he represents so well. But at the same time he is just bigger than hip hop. Definitely one of the better concerts ive been too. It was historical

Though the sound was not excellent becasue Memorial Gym is not built for a concert-it was top 2 concerts I have seen all time. I am planning to go again when he is in Indy in March.

It was nice to hear Nashville refered to as, " the best show of the whole tour!" So many powerful songs. It was like seeing an atrist that has fully matured.

In the Memorial gym, it was like being at a concert back in the day. More intimate than a "arena" show. So glad that we went. Never know if he will come here again!

The concert was good but we couldnt hear very well at all. We could hear the beat and knew what he was saying but only because we know the words to all the songs. When Jay Z was talking the sound quality was very poor. Other than that it was good to see him in person.

I'm not the biggest Jay-Z fan in the world so this review is completely unbiased...his concert was amazing, hands down. I'm completely ok with buyin my own copy of the blueprint 3 after hearin several great songs from it. His lyrics are the business, yes, but the graphics and live band were great too. I love when artist bring in live music and not all the synthesized crap...i can listen to your music online for that! He seemed very real and genuine about everything that he said and did, so big ups to Jay!
