Earlier we caught wind of Jay Z covering the next edition of Vanity Fair Magazine and we now know why. The Hip Hop and Business Mogul has been paired up with his also amazingly successful wife, Beyonce’, to top the Vanity Fair ‘Powers That Be’ list. We are already highly aware of the power of the ‘King and Queen’ of the country, but being atop this presitgious list says quite a bit about the couple’s success.
Says Vanity Fair:
STAGE OF GLOBAL CONQUEST: The music business may be reeling from the digital revolution, but this power couple is only getting stronger. Jay Z managed to take his latest album, Magna Carta Holy Grail, platinum even before putting it on sale, thanks to a pre-order deal with Samsung. (For more on Jay Z, see our cover story, on page 156.) Meanwhile, Beyoncé delivered a scintillating Super Bowl halftime performance, released an HBO documentary, and then promptly sold out her world tour, the Mrs. Carter Show. BIG MOVE: Jay Z’s entertainment company, Roc Nation, is now shaking up the sports world, making a play to represent athletes, including Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
