Jay-Z was so pissed over his Yankee Stadium show being delayed, he wouldn't talk to a soul backstage. Memphis Bleek says Jay turned into a stone-faced killer after fans broke through security. The concert started over four hours late at 12:20 am. Memphis thought the event might get shut down if Jay didn't take the stage by midnight. Once on stage though, Jay-Z brought the house down as he always does.

One hour after Jay-Z was supposed to be onstage Sunday night, almost half the Yankee Stadium crowd was still stuck outside the venue creating chaos. A few hundred people without tickets bum-rushed an entrance, prompting security to shut down all gates. At 10:15 PM, twenty thousand fans were lined up outside, and even A-listers like A$AP Rocky, Tyler the Creator, and Usher were locked out. Jay decided to wait rather than start late, not wanting to abandon fans still outside. Finally at midnight, they started the show, ending around 3 AM with fireworks.
