Jay-Z Signs Geno Smith To Roc Nation Sports

jay-z-brooklyn-geno-smith

Hovito is back at it again. Steadily building his clientele within the Roc Nations Sports Agency, Geno Smith becomes the newest NY athlete to ink a deal with our city’s ambassador.

Smith says:

I think it’s just his agency. When you talk about being in New York from a standpoint of what they can do in the city, the connections that they have, I think it’s a good move. My mother and my family is comfortable with it, I’m comfortable with it. I’m just going to move on from there, not let it be a big deal, remain humble and keep focusing on football.

the-great-gatsby

Written, produced, & directed by Baz Luhrmann – Jay-Z was tapped to executive producer the soundtrack for the Leonardo DiCaprio starred film hitting theaters on May 10th. The Great Gatsby already looks like a must see, but the project will absolutely be a must listen to as well with new music coming from Hov himself, Queen Bey, Andre 3K, my baby Lana Del Ray, Emeli Sande & more. Check in down below to see the official trailer to the movie, and complete tracklist for the soundtrack.

Jay-Z:

“The Great Gatsby is that classic American story of one’s introduction to extravagance, decadence and illusion. It’s ripe for experimentation and ready to be interpreted with a modern twist. The imagination Baz brought to ‘Moulin Rouge!’ made it a masterpiece, and ‘Romeo + Juliet’s’ score wasn’t just in the background; the music became a character. This film’s vision and direction has all the makings of an epic experience”
