It was totally boring. Even the players weren't into it.
First?
…bitch can sing!
“I made the Yankee hat more famous than a Yankee can”…how (more) delusional can he be / get? (for the record, it’s NOT! “just” a line). Let’s count the ways..shall we: babe ruth, joe dimaggio, lou gherig, roger maris, mickey mantle, yogi berra, reggie jackson and the list goes on and on…so Hova, ya ain’t cuttin it, son.
that song will never die out…loves it
Yeah baby 1-1!! Go Yankees!!! I love Jeter and Joba bobbing their heads to the beat. Even the Phillies are digging it.
Lame.
I love that song, I love those too and I love the city of New York….and the yankees…cause they're cute…well some of them are.
GREAT!!!
Okay! Gotta give Hova some credit here! They did kill Yankee Stadium BUT he was performing there at 7:30 and made it to London, ON, Canada by 10 to do his show here! He ripped it up and that's some dedication! The crowd was lovin' it! GO JAY-Z!
Where was lil mama at?????????? lol
This was the DUMBEST thing i have ever seen before a baseball game!! And No slumdog_ the Phils were not into it they were laughing at how ridiculous it is!!! Good song…horrible place to play it.
Re: LittleMouse – Might sound boring to you, but being in the stadium while this song plays must be an amazing experience. LOVE the song!
The only thing they killed was my ear drums!
I loved it. I was there and it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the look on Derek Jeters face, like big deal this is a baseball game not a concert!
I hate the Yankees, but if you live in NY you gotta love this song
And I do. They killed it.
Go Yankees!!!! love the song…………….
i am a phillies fan and was digging it. my kids woke up singing it. song going to #1.
Whatever Jay Z does is Golden!
I don't know what game some of you were watching but everyone loved it. The players were boppin their heads along, some had cameras out videotaping the whole thing. The place was rocking. Thats they're song this year, they've been rockin it in the clubhouse and they play it when Derek Jeter comes out to bat. The chorus is perfect for this event! I think Jay-Z and Alicia did a great job. Wish I was there to see it cause sadly, it didn't sound too good on TV with the whole echo thing. That was annoying. LET'S GO YANKEES!!!!!!!
let's go yankeesss.
Empire State of Mind, is not a hit. It's not even in the top 10. I can be like Jay-Z too. I'll just write poems about how amazing I am, and how rich I am, how many women I sleep with, how many dead homies I have from my drug dealing days and how succesfull i've been until I've sucked my own dick enough to be a famous rapper. Then I'll just talk them over mostly sampled music someone else wrote and put a few keyboard drum beats to it… Seriously though I'm sick of these "artists" all rapping about the same shit. It's meaningless and it's making America dumber.
KILLED IT!!
HELLS YEA!!! GOOOOOOOO Yankees!
Re: LittleMouse – Really boring? I was there with great seats and I can tell you Jeter, Rodriguez and Cano were enjoying it not to mention the Phillie's also. They pumped up the stadium, which was good. Maybe your boring.
Hate the Yankee's but love Jay-Z
Well if they would of performed in GAME 1 YANKEES would have won!!!!!!!!!
Lil Mama could not afford tickets to the game so she did not be a groupie that day
LOVE THEM!
Whatever it's all about Philly now.I have a feeling that my boys will win all 3 games at home & they won't have to go back to NY. The Yankees have to face tje craziest fans tomorrow.Can't wait.
Yo, y was everyone not feeling it especially the Yankee players, jeter did not look like he was enjoying the stadium. Performances at stadiums are never that great because you get like an echo during the performance. But lol no one looked like they were feeling the game, maybe they were too nervous?
Hova and AK brought New York to New York…holla
GO PHILLIES
the*
Jz it looks like that shit u did 13 yrs ago will soon be exposed and I couldn't b more thrilled. I know beyowulf will b trying to divorce ur ass for sure also it looks like they are looking into the payola u have been paying for for years now. Poor poor jz on top of the world one day…in the dumps a lifetime
Re: BlogKingNyc – right….Jay Z has magical powers when he preforms live and would have thus made Cliff Lee blow it. Your delusional, not any line up could have hit off Lee. He was the star that night & any Yankees fan I have talked to agrees Cliff Lee is the truth!
They were horrible. The game was great, but they were horrible.
by the way Yankees fans when you all watch game 3 you will see how passionate the fans are here. We wouldn't leave in the 6th inning because our team was down. There was an article by fox sports even saying "where is the passion in these fans" even when you guys won last night? I'll admit the "Whose your Daddy" chant was funny as hell but thankfully the Yanks didnt embarrass him on the mound, he pitch well. All we needed to do was split. I'm gonna stick with Rollins Phils in 5
Uhm…audience looks really bored
Alicia killed it!
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOV THIS SONG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that was amazing they killed it and i am so happy my boys won game 2 last night GO YANKS!
Love that song!! Theres no place like Ny! New Yorkers are the best!!
love it!
NY SUCKS SO DO THEY
I love that song. That song made me like Alicia Keys as a singer. It makes me want to go to New York!!
THAT WAS HOOOOOOTTTTTT! THEY SLAMMED IT OUTTA THE PARK… EVEN THE PHILLIES WERE LOVIN IT!
FIERCE! Mariano Rivera was like, "Who is this guy? He's kinda good."
Re: Meedee72 – Jeter said after the game that he loved it.
I don't watch baseball often, if at all but who is the guy the camera kept going to with the grey hooded sweatshirt?
Re: YUCK –
What are you referring to with the 13yr old drama? What was so bad that it would even matter so much to bring up now?
LOL THEY DIDN'T KILL IT! THIS WAS BORING AND STUPID, AND WHOLLY FUCK BALLS, JAY-Z LOOKS SUPER FAT & OLD, WHAT THE HELL DOES BEYONCEE SEE IN HIM? HE LOOKED LIKE ALICIA KEY'S GRANDPA!!!!
i like the philly version better. maybe it's just cause i'm from there…but whatever.
Um, I'm pretty sure Jeter enjoyed the performance since he steps up to the plate to that song.
the look on jeter's face was priceless.
i really can't stand performances at sports events.
Re: Ms.KeKe – they were trying to drown out the heat that pedro was getting. the commentators clearly stated that.
wow flashbacks to 1998 i;ve got to quit…
GO Phillies
they are gonna beat the crap out of the yankees starting with Cole Hamels pitching on Halloween.
the Yankees are going down.
alicia is a fine piece of ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love you girl, your beautiful and freaking talented!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sooooo good! love them!! mariano looks so cute
GO YANKS!!!!!
Re: ashiiiex – I sure as heck hope you're right
oh my god can she SING!
I USED to LOOOOOVE that song….will resume playing it after my Philllies win the series.
luv it!
those guys in the background didnt even play the instruments! the crowd wasnt even into it …
Re: lolacita1258 – I was at his concert in London Ontario Canada right after this and it was one of the BEST shows I have seen. There were Rumors he was bringing Alicia with him but he didn't.
Say what you want about this performance but Hova is definitely one of THE best live performers around right now.
Alicia Keys is soooo tacky!!!! she cant dress 4 shit!!!! and this song suxxxxxx!!!!
such a great game, and I agree it's kinda awakrd when theres a perforamce during games. Espically since it's very rare to see one during a BASEBALL game, but Jeter's face it priceless. So adorable, GO YANKEES! AND GO NEW YORK!
Meh…I'm not a hater of either of them, but the song was, meh. Maybe it was the sound in the stadium. However, the players didn't look like they were that into it…
could alicia keys be any more beautiful?? and to top it off she can actually sing…and sing damn good.
Re: pinky8 – TV wise it came across terribly. Glad you enjoyed it live though!
Re: Cakes18 – On tv it did not look as if they were feeling it. They were rolling their eyes. If you didn't live in New York you would find the song boring too. lol
What absolute CRAP ! No wonder the masses are asses ! Wake up people
Must be a homosexual thing, the admiration for what these two did the other night! That reporter in Fox News, Shep, said the same thing! I saw the video he showed, listened, listened, waiting for…something, and the best I can say about it is that Alicia Keyes' voice projects nicely. How did this JayZee guy make all his millions?!!? He is a…well. I can't write here what I'm thinking.
P.S. And when they had a sweep at the players while the performers were on stage, it was OBVIOUS Jeters (sp?) was MAKING FUN of them! The look on his face said it all! What a JOKE.
Who's the sexy guy in the grey hoodie?
ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS REALLY GOOD PERFORMANCE!!
