Answer The Call Concert Performance Highlights

Beyonce "Diva"

Jay-Z, Rihanna, & Kanye West "Run This Town"

Jay-Z & Mary J. Blige "Can't Knock The Hustle"

In support of his new album The Blueprint 3, Jay-Z hosted Answer The Call, a 9/11 charity concert at Madison Square Garden. Among the many guests, his wife Beyonce turned out a sizzling performance of "Diva." That's what I've been waiting to see! Also, Rihanna made her first post-Chris Beatdown stage appearance alongside Jay & Kanye West for their new single "Run This Town." If both Jay (I don't how Beyonce puts up with him...) & that song didn't irk the crap outta me, I would've enjoyed their performance more. RiRi did seem to be enjoying herself though! Mary J. Blige was there as well & rocked out hard up there next to Jay as well as during her own performance of "The One," which gets cut off at the end of that video, which makes me sad. (What's with all these videos being cut short lately? Especially with MJB?!) All-in-all, it was a nice gesture on behalf of New Yorker Jay-Z ... I would just like to have seen him do it without an album dropping the same week.
