Yea Hov!! Jay Z covers the November issue of Vanity Fair and the article on him is amazing.  It gives such a great insight into Jiggaman’s life.  If your a Hov fan, I would suggest reading the entire article (He talks Blue Ivy, Beyonce and more).  But since I cover sports — that’s the angle I’m sharing with you. Check out what he had to say about his past teaching him a lot for the future. #TeamRocNation

…Jay’s recent venture into the world of sports agency:

Jay’s checkered past taught him a few things that he says will come in handy in his new role as a sports agent: “I know about budgets. I was a drug dealer,” he tells Robinson. “To be in a drug deal, you need to know what you can spend, what you need to re-up. Or if you want to start some sort of barbershop or car wash—those were the businesses back then. Things you can get in easily to get out of [that] life. At some point, you have to have an exit strategy, because your window is very small; you’re going to get locked up or you’re going to die.”
