Jay Z, The Clock
Jay Z, one of rap’s most innovative and trailblazing stars, was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on October 30th, 2021
“We were told that hip-hop was a fad and much like punk rock, they gave us this ‘anti-culture’ and this sub-genre, and there were heroes in it. When I was thinking of what I was gonna say tonight, these heroes just came to mind: Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, KRS-One, and Chuck D. And, of course...LL Cool J.” ~ Jay Z [Induction Speech]
Arty-Fact: When asked about his favourite person to photograph and why, Markus replied: "I am lucky because I shoot so many interesting people. Always the last one I shoot is my favourite, because of the adrenaline rush. The list is wondrous. I have top favourites, of course – Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Mary J. Blige, Christina Aguilera, Kim Kardashian, Kanye, and Jay Z. They are all among my very favourites.?It’s not just because they were shot in the 2000s, it’s because I really love them and had a wonderful time working with them."
