Manly Tumblrs: 99 Problems

Jay-Z is a man of many talents, and a man of fine tastes. That said, it’s not all peaches and Beyonce when you’re at the top. The man famously stated that he had 99 Problems and you know what one of them isn’t. Luckily, this tumblr just popped up and it details Hova’s many many problems in hilarious illustrations. 

Jay-Z Takes the Subway to an Arena He Owns and Sits Next to the Only Person in New York Who Doesn’t Know Who Jay-Z is

Sean “Jay-Z” Carter is the most famous and successful rapper in history. Ellen Grossman is a 67-year-old artist from Brooklyn who apparently has no idea what her borough’s most famous son looks like. When Jay (and a dozen security guards) decided to take the R train to the last of his eight sold-out shows at the Barclays Center, he just so happened to sit next to Ms. Grossman, the only person in New York or the civilised world who doesn’t know who Jay-Z is. The ensuing conversation is one of the more heartwarming things we’ve seen this year. #BWAM doesn’t mean we don’t have hearts. See the entire exchange on Gawker.
