FOXBOROUGH, MA –
JAY-Z returned to the stage to deliver a rare performance at Tom Brady’s induction into the New England Patriots’ Hall of Fame.
At the ceremony, which was held at the Gillette Stadium on Wednesday (June 12), Jigga made a surprise appearance by performing his 2003 track “Public Service Announcement,” which Brady used to use as his walkout music during his time with the Patriots.
During the performance, Jay said: “Foxborough, make some noise! Put one hand in the air for the G.O.A.T., Mr. Tom Brady, tonight!”
Brady then walked onto the stage to a euphoric reception in New England, where he played between 2000 and 2020, winning six Super Bowls.

Alongside billionaire Michael Rubin, the pair sat down for a breakfast meeting with rookies such as number one draft pick Caleb Williams, Patriots quarterback Drake Maye and wide receiver Malik Nabers.
Alongside pictures of the all-star summit on Instagram, Rubin wrote: “Breakfast with Jay and Tom & $500k but seriously awesome morning with @tombrady @jayz and our @fanatics NFL rookies discussing sports and business!
“Tommy and Jay thank you so much for the invaluable advice and knowledge you shared – this was such an incredible opportunity for these rooks before they take their first snap. Big things ahead for this group – can’t wait to watch you all crush it on and off the field!”
Meek Mill, who is friends and business partners with both Rubin and Hov, commented: “I had that million dollar convo with Jigga in that same house i pray it works lol.”
Rubin later posted videos from the meeting which featured soundbites of advice from JAY-Z and Brady.
“Your talent gets you there; your work ethic and discipline take you to where you want to be,” the Roc Nation mogul told the rookies.
He also said: “You gotta know who you are ’cause those moments are gonna come. You’re gonna be down 28-0 and you gotta say, ‘Aright, I know who I am. I’ma go get it.’”
“You’re gonna evolve or you’re not. You’re gonna keep evolving or you’re not. And if you’re not, the world still spins. If you’re forever curious, you’ll always keep getting better,” he added.
