Jay-Z
is known for doing things big, but nothing says baller status like sharing
breakfast with two billionaires, which is just what the Jiggaman did Wednesday
morning in New York.
The MC and
minority owner of the New Jersey Nets noshed on bagels with media mogul/ Mayor
of New York City Michael Bloomberg and the new majority Nets owner, Mikhail
Prokhorov, at Gracie Mansion (traditionally the mayor's official residence
though Bloomberg doesn't live there). Prokhorov spent the rest of the day on a
tour of the city, which included a stop in Jay-Z’s native Brooklyn, where the Nets
plan to move in two years.
While the
Russian tycoon has made his multibillion dollar fortune in the banking and
mining industries, Prokhorov clearly has his ear to the streets and revealed
his respect for Jigga. According to the New York Daily News Prokhorov gushed
about his fellow Nets owner: "We are soul mates." Soul mates
huh? Guess it is because they are both
Illuminated.
And there may be
more power breakfasts in store for them as the billionaire added, "I'm
looking forward to hanging out with him." While Prokhorov was aware that
he and Jay-Z make something of an odd pairing, he insisted the connection
between the two moguls is deeper than rap. Yes, I am so sure it is. (Free Mason’s,
Illuminati, and New World Order)
"Despite
the fact that I am very far from the rap music, we have a lot in common,"
Prokhorov said, according to the New York Post.
People….Please wake up!
There'a something rotten in Denmark!
Well, That's the Way I C It
The Way I C IT...
New York City is jam packed with out of towners, pedestrians and bystanders. The streets are always crowded, there is no way the shooter could have been taken down without some civilian casualty.
NYPD Gunfire In Empire State Building Shooting Wounded All Nine Bystanders
New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said all nine bystanders wounded in Friday's Empire State Building shooting had been hit with police gunfire, CNN reported Saturday morning.
According to Kelly, of the nine wounded, three suffered gunshot wounds and six were hit by fragments.
Gunfire broke out shortly after 9 a.m. on Friday when a gunman identified as 58-year old Jeffrey Johnson shot and killed former coworker Steve Ercolino near the Empire State Building.
Johnson attempted to flee the scene, but was thwarted after a construction worker who followed him tipped off police officers.
Police approached Johnson who aimed his gun at the officers before police opened fire, killing him on the spot.
The NYPD said officers fired 16 rounds with one officer shooting nine and another seven.
During a press conference held on Friday, Mayor Bloomberg had said some individuals may have been shot at by NYPD.
Less than two weeks prior to Friday's shooting, NYPD shot and killed a knife-wielding man in Times Square. The bizarre incident caused many to question if the NYPD had overreacted.
Since the chaotic incident, details have emerged describing a hostile relationship between Johnson and Ercolino, who both worked at Hazan Imports together until Johnson was laid off nearly two years ago.
