Jay-Z was inducted into the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame Saturday. Both Barack Obama and Dave Chappelle gave induction intros for Jay. Obama said, “Jay-Z is one of the most renowned artists in history and an embodiment of the American dream, a dream he has helped make real for other young people like him.” Before Jay’s speech, a video montage featuring Beyoncé, Rihanna, Diddy, Pharrell, Chris Rock, LeBron James, Blue Ivy, and David Letterman played. As he began, Jay said, “That’s a lot. Trying to make me cry.” The 36th Annual Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will be available to watch Saturday November 20, 2021 on HBO and HBO Max.
