Jay-Z: concert showed

WENN

Jay-Z has said that his pairing with Kelly Clarkson and Third Eye Blind at a concert on Thursday at the University of Arizona showed racial unity.

On a blog post for Rap Radar, the rapper confessed that he thought the bill was "the oddest pairing ever" before the event. However, ultimately he enjoyed the concert's diversity.

"[I] realised it's what I've always professed. There's no such thing as black music or white music only good or bad music," Jay-Z wrote.

He added that he would like to see diverse shows more often, citing New York's Zootopia concert as an example.

"I'm putting that into the universe. Next up, a concert with Taylor Swift and Uncle Murda," he said.
