Jay Z Named One Of The Art World’s Most Powerful People

JayZ-ArtWorld

If Jay Z cared at all about becoming hip-hop’s first billionaire–which was a very real possibility, given the early success of his latest venture, Roc Nation Sports–his mood most likely worsened significantly in the past couple hours, after news of Dr. Dre & Jimmy Iovine‘s likely 3.2 billion dollar payout surfaced on the net.

So here’s a silver lining.

Despite taking criticism from several people–including Drake–about his interest in art being more about keeping up pop culture trends than an actual interest and appreciation for the art world, The Guardian named Jay Z one of the most powerful people in the art world today, as they prepare for New York’s Frieze art fair.
