Jay-Z likes fan involvement

By Alex Young on February 14th, 2008

Jay-Z is looking for some fan involvement when it comes to choosing setlists for his “Heart of the City” upcoming tour with Mary J. Blige.

For the first time ever Jay-Z will involve fans in the set-list selection process; creating a rare opportunity for devotees to have a direct impact on the songs played during the performance.

To make a song selection fans must purchase their tickets through the exclusive fan pre-sale via www.rocafella.com. After making the purchase fans will be prompted to input their selection of any song from Jay-Z’s 10 platinum records.

Once the pre-sale has ended the most requested song will be added to the song list to perform on a per-show basis.
