Jay-Z: Bringing Nets to Brooklyn an American dream
Jay-Z has accomplished a lot in his career, but his latest feat has him feeling that like he’s living the American dream.
The 42-year-old music mogul and entrepreneur says when he was a poor kid in the New York City borough of Brooklyn, he never imagined that he’d someday own a basketball team. Now Jay is part owner of the Brooklyn Nets and instrumental in moving the franchise from New Jersey.
He feels his rags-to-riches story embodies all that is possible in America.
