Rap-Up.com || Jay-Z and Rihanna ‘Run’ Hackney Weekend

The Roc was in the building at BBC Radio 1 Hackney Weekend 2012. After wrapping the “Watch the Throne” tour the prior night, Jay-Z returned to the stage, headlining Day 1 of the festival in London. The hip-hop mogul surprised concertgoers by bringing out Kanye West, M.I.A., and Rihanna. The pop princess, who will headline Sunday’s festival, performed “Run This Town” with her mentor as Beyoncé, Rita Ora, and Solange looked on.

@LAURYN, I bet this tramp probably screwed Jay-Z over the weekend. Riri is a tramp. I wouldn’t trust her around my dog for 5 mins, she’d probably try to screw him too. Bey is crazy to trust Riri around her man.

@MinajRules2012, Do you know Rihanna personally? No? Just whatever MediaFakeout says about her right?

Well consider this, if Jay has been smashing Rih since she was 15-16 what does that make Jay?

You don’t say sh*t when guys like Drake, Chris Brown or Meek Mill behave in the same “slutty” manner. Trust Rihanna list of lovers is probably average number wise.

Rih catches shit for ALLEGEDLLY sleeping with Jay while nobody says sh!t about Chris Brown piping his 40 year old manager since he was 15-16 with the same amount of “proof” people have that Rih’s sleeping Jay. I could go on.

I hate Anerica’s sexual double standards.

It was an ok performance.

@MinajRules2012, If Nicki Minaj wore those you’d be going crazy! Let’s see if you can afford those “pajamas”.

“You only know what you see, you don’t understand what it takes to be.”

Rihanna is up there, because somebody enabled her to do so… She would be crazy not to take that chance, so she is not the one y’all should be mad at. That is all I have to say about that.
