\n\tAfter fans waited more than three hours for the finale in Jay-Z\u2018s three-night stand at Yankee Stadium on Sunday, the rapper addressed the extensive delay early in the show, telling those in the crowd there were thousands of people outside and that the show was pushed back to back to avoid crowd safety issues.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLet me explain the delay to you guys,\u201d Jay said after finally kicking off the show after midnight eastern Monday. \u201cIt was like 10,000 people outside, and we closed all the doors, and somebody rushed the door. They closed the door for you guys\u2019 safety and everyone\u2019s safety outside. There\u2019s 10,000 people outside; I don\u2019t want to start the music and people get trampled. I\u2019m really sorry for the inconvenience, but I had to make sure everyone was OK. I appreciate your patience.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe delay marked a rocky start for what had been the most hotly-anticipated of Jay-Z\u2019s historic three-night hometown stand at Yankee Stadium. Fans had been anxiously awaiting what the hip-hop icon had in store after already bringing out Beyonc\u00e9, Nas and Alicia Keys during night one and Eminem for night two.<\/p>\n

\n\tConcerts have been a bit of a rarity for Jay-Z since wrapping his 4:44 Tour back in 2017. The Yankee Stadium shows are a full-circle moment for him, a celebration of the 30th anniversary of his seminal album Reasonable Doubt <\/em>and the 25th anniversary of The Blueprint. <\/em>This third night\u2019s show, which he\u2019s calling the Extra Innings Show, has already featured Teyana Taylor and Usher. <\/p>\n

\n\tWhile the Yankee Stadium concerts have extra meaning taking place in his hometown, Jay will also be performing in London, Paris and Los Angeles in the months ahead. He\u2019s also the subject of a Rick Rubin-directed docuseries set to hit HBO this fall. <\/p>\n
