NBA Investigating Jay-Z

Per Billboard.com

An NBA spokesman confirms that the league is investigating Jay-Z's presence in Kentucky's locker room after the Wildcats clinched a Final Four berth.

The rapper visited the players after their victory over North Carolina on Sunday at the Prudential Center in Newark, N.J, home of the Nets. Jay-Z is a part-owner of the team and attended the Nets' 120-116 loss at New York on Wednesday.

NBA rules prohibit team personnel from having contact with players who are not yet draft eligible, and spokesman Tim Frank told the Associated Press the league is looking into it.

The investigation was first reported by CBSSports.com.

Jay-Z Goes to ‘The Moon and the Sky’ on Sade Remix

Jay-Z’s wish has finally been granted. Sade has called upon the Roc Nation superstar for a remix to one of her songs.


The British songstress, who has avoided collaborating with rappers in the past, gets some help from Jay on the remix to “The Moon and the Sky,” a track included on last year’s platinum-selling Soldier of Love. The remix, along with two other never-before-heard recordings, will appear on Sade’s double-disc set The Ultimate Collection. The 28-track offering also features classic Sade songs and will arrive May 3.

A nervous Sade previously revealed that she turned down Jay-Z and others’ requests for a collaboration. “I’m too scared,” she told the Los Angeles Times. “They’ll find me out. It’s like The Wizard of Oz.They’ll find out there’s nothing there. As for collaborations, I’mcollaborating with the band and do what we do. I see myself as a memberof this band who does thesesongs that we write.”

In addition, the band has announced new dates for their North American summer tour, kicking off June 16 in Baltimore, Maryland, with supporting act John Legend.
