JAY-Z Brings Out Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and Too $hort at Final JAŸ-Z30 Show

Jay-Z concluded his "JAY-Z30 Tour" with a West Coast-centric finale on Saturday night at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. The rapper opened the October 24th show with "The Watcher 2" before swiftly summoning Too $hort for "Blow the Whistle." Throughout his career-spanning set, Jay-Z performed hits like "Izzo (H.O.V.A.)," "Run This Town," "Dead Presidents," "99 Problems," and "Dirt Off Your Shoulder."

As the night progressed, he handed the reins to Los Angeles rap legends Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. Snoop Dogg took center stage for "Murder Was the Case," followed by Dr. Dre's performance of "The Next Episode," "California Love," "Nothin' but a 'G' Thang," and "Still D.R.E." Throughout the evening, Jay-Z honored the late Nipsey Hussle by weaving elements of "Hussle & Motivate" into "Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)" and using the instrumental from "Last Time I Checc’d" during "On to the Next One."

The rapper wrapped up the night, and his limited anniversary run, with "Empire State of Mind," "Big Pimpin’," "Public Service Announcement," and "Encore." The two-night SoFi Stadium stand was a follow-up to JAY-Z's anniversary shows in New York, London, and Paris, commemorating 30 years since Reasonable Doubt and 25 years since The Blueprint.

The first night at SoFi featured guest appearances from Blue Ivy Carter, Scarface, John Legend, and DJ Khaled.
