Since his gold debut in '96 (the independently released Reasonable Doubt), Jay Z (a.k.a. Sean Carter) has performed on just about every stage in the continental U.S., released the #1 rap single "Who U Wit" and guested on a half dozen gold and platinum recordings by Foxy Brown, Puff Daddy, the Notorious BIG and others. Jay Z's super strong street credibility and crossover appeal has crowned him "Player of the Year"; now, he's back with a new album. 1st single/video, "Sunshine," featuring Foxy Brown.
