Background on the Anniversary Tour

The announcement follows Jay-Z’s performance at the Roots Picnic. It also comes before three upcoming shows at Yankee Stadium.

Those Yankee Stadium shows will focus on the anniversaries of Reasonable Doubt and The Blueprint. His Philadelphia concert already offered a wider career retrospective.

The Philadelphia show featured The Roots and guest artists. These included Jazmine Sullivan, Bilal, Freeway, and Beanie Sigel.

Critical Reception

Variety’s Steven J. Horowitz praised the Philadelphia performance. He wrote:

“Twenty-five years later, [Jay and the Roots’] creative synergy has only strengthened. The show was muscular, a one-off that brought them back together for a tour of Jay-Z’s catalogue with the Roots’ ability to make precision look spontaneous. That much was hidden in the details, the interweaving of ‘I Just Wanna Love U (Give It 2 Me)’ and ‘Big Pimpin’,’ for instance, or the sudden switch from ‘Dirt Off Your Shoulder’ into ‘I Know’ and was clearly a labour of love. Jay-Z himself acknowledged this at the end of the set: ‘We worked really hard to put this together.’”
