Jay-Z - Road To Perdition (2016)

On 27 October 27 2005 Jay-Z headlined New York's Power 105.1 annual concert, Powerhouse, calling the concert "I Declare War", and the theme was Jay-Z's position as president and CEO of Def Jam, complete with an on-stage mock-up of the Oval Office. In November 2006 he released his come-back album, 'Kingdom Come', and the single 'Show Me What You Got' was leaked on the Internet in early October 2006, scheduled to be released later on that month, and first week sales of the album were 680,000, enough to be his "biggest sales week ever" as Billboard reported. He followed this in November 2007 with his tenth album entitled 'American Gangster', reportedly inspired after he viewed the Ridley Scott film of the same name, where he wanted to create a new concept album that depicted his experiences as a street-hustler. On 1 January 2008, Jay-Z resigned as president of Def Jam. In winter 2008 it was announced that he would become the first major hip hop artist to headline Britain's Glastonbury Festival, and despite negative comments from Noel Gallagher, tickets sold out quickly, and he also headlined many other summer festivals in 2008, including Roskilde Festival in Denmark, Hove Festival in Norway, and O2 Wireless Festival in London. In May  2009 he announced he would be parting ways with Def Jam, and had struck a multi-million-dollar deal to sign with Live Nation, with whom he would start his Roc Nation imprint which would serve as a record label, talent/management agency, and music publishing company. He released his eleventh album 'The Blueprint 3' in September 2009, and it was his eleventh album to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200. In 2011 he collaborated with Kanye West to record their joint album 'Watch The Throne', following this two years later with his own 'Magna Carta... Holy Grail' in 2013. This final collection of out-takes and rarities covers the years 2005 to 2016, and so might not be as cohesive an album as some of the previous posts, but all of the tracks are worth hearing if you are fan of his work.
