Jay-Z Joins Group Hoping to Renovate Nassau Coliseum

Known for his heavy involvement in the opening of Barclays Center in Brooklyn and the launch of Roc Nation Sports, rapper and all-around icon Jay-Z is delving into another sporting endeavor — this time assisting in the redevelopment of Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Jay-Z recently took part in a meeting with other members of the media, presenting four renovation proposals for the Uniondale, New York arena. Situated outside of New York City, Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum is home to the New York Islanders, although the team will be heading to Brooklyn in 2015.  While submersing himself in various projects, Jay-Z still finds time to release music. Last month he released “Open Letter,” a Swizz-Beatz produced anthem, while fans were treated last week to “100$ Bill” off of The Great Gatsby soundtrack. Stay tuned for more on the renovation.
