Tickets go on sale in select markets beginning Friday at LiveNation.com.

The fall tour is the follow-up to the “Mary J. Blige & Jay-Z: Heart of the City” tour, which was seen by more than 600,000 fans. The 28-date trek grossed more than $35 million.

Prior to the upcoming tour kickoff, Jay-Z will headline a charity concert at New York’s Madison Square Garden Friday in support of the New York Police & Fire Widows and Children’s Benefit Fund. All proceeds from tickets sales and concert merchandise are to go directly to the charity, Live Nation said.

The Game says Fuck Jay Z

Monday, July 6th, 2009

The Game has sparked controversy in rap circles, after a performance in Bordeaux, France, last night, where he called out Jay-Z.
The rapper, flanked by two members of his entourage, stormed onto the stage during his performance at the Le 4 Sans, where he immediately took aim at Jay-Z, one of rap’s biggest stars.

“I’ma tell you like this. I don’t care what a n***a say. This is how I am coming out today. F**k Jay-Z. Straight up. And if you don’t like that, I am pretty sure you can find an exit some where. This is a Blackwall Street party. We sayin’ f**k Jay-Z.”

The rapper and the crowd repeated the explicative six times in unison, before The Game labeled the Roc-A-Fella founder an “old ass n***a.”

As the crowd began to chant, Game launched into an impromptu freestyle over Jay-Z’s “Death of Autotune” instrumental.

The Game’s scathing diss to Jay-Z comes just days after the Brooklyn-bred emcee dropped a freestyle at The Palms in Las Vegas concert last Friday (July 3), which name checked The Game, Jim Jones, Damon Dash and Jaz-O.

“I ain’t talkin’ about gossip, I ain’t talkin’ ’bout Game/I ain’t talkin’ about Jimmy, I ain’t talkin’ about Dame/,” Jay-Z rapped.

The Game is currently touring across Europe until August 15, with confirmed dates in Spain, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, Australia and other countries.

He is also working on a new movie titled House Arrest starring Stacey Dash, the cousin of former Roc-A-Fella CEO, Damon Dash.
