Rapper Jay Z continues to make smart business moves to fatten his financial portfolio. The 42-year-old NBA minority owner held a press conference this morning to announce the team’s name change from New Jersey Nets to Brooklyn Nets. He also announced he will be performing 8 concerts to welcome the newly renamed team to its new home at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
In an effort to draw the big corporate money to Brooklyn, the team also announced it’s selling “all-access” passes to the team’s VIP lounge. The VIP passes, which can be yours for only $15,400 a pop — will also give you backstage access to Jay Z’s 8 concerts. Not bad for $15K.
maybe they’ll start winning?

What do they have to lose?
Brooklyn Nets…lol I Guess. But I wouldn’t pay no 15k. He’s not that serious.
which can be yours for only $15,400 a pop….. Sweet baby jesus!!
I gotta give it to Jay…that ninja is making all the right moves to keep that billi in his pockets! Good gracious…He need to write a book so we can learn the bitness!
Somebody else who can help the US schools
*sits, waits for stars that care about society*
Here he goes again…let’s wait and see how this works out…
i agree, that’s steep as fugg. if they subract 15k from that price he could be on to something..
I like how he threw the 8 concerts in there.
As someone who was oppose to this mess, and still cringe seeing that structure being built….i hope they suck for many years
@Yall
I’m with you, I wish more of these folks would put their money into something outside sports, alcohol, clothing etc. Shoot, they could probably wipe out a couple thousand student loan debts and seriously stimulate the economy. IJS…
Thats whats up!!

He tryna make paying 15,400 sound good….. he’s not worth that much! Only a selected few can afford that much!
15k huh
*goes to join Yall*
get it Jay Z , make that money, Dude I aint mad at’cha
Brooklyn Nets doesnt even sound right! How many teams does NY need anyway?…

Let the church say AMEN!!!
Once the deal is complete to erect (

fired“bought out” of his ownership stake.The next successful business deal he arranges will be his first.

I would go see Jay-Z at a free concert…let alone drop 15 stacks so I can go see him perform and watch a team that’s like 0-48…

@FeFe Like fa real!
I feel sorry for people who have to drive in this area once this is complete. New York is not a place to have stadiums.

~~~~~
Will & Jada have their own Scienctology School, isn’t that a start? LOL.
More people will probably attend those 8 concerts than people attending the next 8 seasons worth of Nets basketball games.
I can’t tell someone how to spend their money. If I had big money, I would help kids go to school, but my main focus would be making my money work for me and not the other way around. Clothing, liquor, etc sells itself. I still see hoodboogers walking around in Apple Bottoms.
@ MAN – At least I would have called him a pawn, lol. But I agree with everything you said.

________________________________________________________________________
I guess his celebrity friends and idiotic rich kids with money to waste will be the only ones attending. No one wants to see him perform that bad… Unless he’ll be giving out rent checks and car note payments for the stunters that stopped a few payments just to buy a ticket..:shrugs:

This buffoon doesn’t even realize when he is being used. They (they = the REAL Nets ownership) ALSO thought they could use Jigga-boo to get LeBron to sign with them. Then they thought they could get Carmello…
They wound up with Derron Williams whose prolly goin leave them after next season.
Jigga making major moves! Love him! ….but Brooklyn Nets doesn’t sound right
I don’t tell people how to spend their money so he can do as he pleases with it. And many stars do give back to the community and its schools but no one ever covers that because it’s not controversial or news worthy.
Go Jay

With the way things are going in the NBA, a name change might not even matter.
@mamacita agreed!
I just noticed that Eb was :banned:!
is goin’ on’round here??
Umm no Anna, it’s not a start

TATTEDDDD! Runs into your arms!
Shhhhhh @Tatted

@Tatted
I noticed that too…I have vowed from here on out to not comment in the Tiny, T.I., or Monica posts unless it’s completely off topic…
#lurkingissafe
Heeey XYZ….how are you??
Good for you mamacita
@ HTown & Fe – Me either. I DID see the comment & Brown & I both warned her….but dayum! Auntie don’t play!
@Man, I am just saying that the lockout does not look to have an end in sight. I just hope that the players have been saving their coins.

CREAMY
EB said Tiny looked like…..

Goes to find a New Jersey Americans/New York Nets ABA jersey touite de suite….
Hell, if Chi hasn’t been banned then I don’t see why Eb was.
I guess…
*Orders my Free EB t-shirt*
I get called all sorts of names tho…
Maybe there is something else that I need to do to be a “member of the blog” besides registering and commenting.
@Creamy…SR has “The Rules” posted somewhere but Ive learned dont comment on a TI, Tiny or Monica post to play it safe
MAMA
apprently Sandra missed all of Chi’s comments about Tiny
MAN
you have to be a “valued” member
WAYAAAAMENT…Eb gone?
@ Luscious LOL @ “valued”
*throws Nikke the matching FREE EB boyshorts*
Make sure you wear your stilletos…
that 15k is the same 15k u would pay at madison square its for any event at the stadium not just the concerts.
I stay out of all Monica, TI and Tiny posts. I know my mouth.

I like Jay but I could do so much more with 15k than seeing his ass on or backstage.

I absolutely agree that these entertainers should be givng money to schools, but by the same token, how many of us are doing the same? What’s a $500 scholarship to your highschool? A pair of boots..1/2 of the newest LV? Let’s be real..EVERYONE can do something. #whataboutu
@VERO
NO they don’t have no dayum red bottoms! They are really nice shoes and yo’ ol man prolly can’t even afford them!
KDub – Is she a member of the blog?
H, check your box.

@Yall

Not red bottoms.
BLUE bottoms. To match the blue balls he has after one of his hos sees him take off his heels and laughs herself back out the door. 
@Yall
I’m envisioning him limping after you while you play keep away
What chall tawkin bout, Man’s kitten heels?????
Friends of the blog and members of “valued celebrity members” of this blog can not be picked on. Beyonce, however, is always up for grabs.
@VERO
Nonsense. I don’t even have it in me to be mean.

“but by the same token, how many of us are doing the same? What’s a $500 scholarship to your highschool? A pair of boots..1/2 of the newest LV? Let’s be real..EVERYONE can do something. #whataboutu”
Excellent question!!! That’s why I always say that celebs are damned if they do or don’t when it comes to their money. #idomypart
Hey. It’s getting chilly round here so I would like a FREE EB hoodie with matching Uggs and scully. Please and thanks.

I don’t have any “short comings” (I don’t know if you sayin I’m short or if I can’t last while flucking but either way… yeah) !!!! I’m AVERAGE height! I only wear “Executive Height Adjusters” because they are good for posture and blood flow! They are NOT heels!
Women tell me ALL the time that I am “uniquely handsome” and “exotic looking” and ask about my heredity and what my parents look like!

YES IT IS! That’s how women do! They don’t ever compliment a man on his physical body because they don’t want to seem “eager” or “hoe-ish!”
So they do chit in a “round-about” way! Talkin bout a nigga smell good or they smart or some chit like that!
I KNOW when buy my coworker lunch she always talk bout how “smart” I am and how much I make her laugh that what she REALLY means is that she wanna ride the “Bologna Pony” I got in my pants for her.
MAN
on second thought, I’ll pass on the dinner!
I dont think I want a free meal that bad
