He is also putting on his annual Made In America festival in Philadelphia Sept. 2 and headlines Meadows Music And Arts Festival in New York Sept. 15. Jay also appears at Austin City Limits Music Festival Oct. 6 and 13.
The 4:44 album set the hip hop world ablaze with its personal lyrics and social commentary. It reportedly went platinum after just one week of being available, though it is reportedly not charting as expected because of the download method used, according to XXL.
