On January 19, 2014, Jay-Z played a sold out show at Nassau Coliseum on Long Island during his Magna Carta world tour. "The last time I was in this building I brought Michael Jackson to the stage", he said. "I know that show will be a hard one to top, but we're going to try tonight". Jay looked at home while he took the audience on a 27 song journey of his musical career covering almost all of his studio 12 albums. He also had a four piece band which included Dj/producer Timbaland.
The Magna Carter tour was Jay's first headlining tour in almost four years. Initially Jay was supposed to go on tour with Justin Timberlake in support of Timberlake's come back to music and new album The 20/20 Experience. However, on July 24th 2013 Jay-Z released his twelfth studio album Magna Carter Holy Grail and on July 26th 2013 the tour was announced. The tour started in Europe, but due to its overwhelming success, a second leg of the tour was announced on September 13th 2013 to take place in North America. Based on Pollstar reports, the tour earned $48.9 million from 52 shows from 2013 to 2014.
