Mary J. Blige and\u00a0Jay-Z will perform together in Phoenix at the US Airways Center as\u00a0part of a 25-date, nation-wide tour. As one of the biggest rappers of\u00a0all time, concert material will center around his two albums produced since his\u00a02004 tour: American Gangster and Kingdom Come. Both Blige and Jay-Z are hot commodities at this point in their careers, as Blige won two Grammy\u2019s on Feb\u00a010, and Jay-Z went home with one. The concert is not until April 15, but act quickly, because this show\u00a0is sure to\u00a0sell-out.
