Jay-Z, rap’s billion-dollar baby and husband of singer-actress Beyonce Knowles, makes his Seattle debut in concert Saturday night at KeyArena.

The superstar rapper comes to town following the release of “The Blueprint 3,” his 11th album. You can listen to song samples on Myspace.

Born Shawn Corey Carter in 1969, Jay-Z is as much a businessman as he is a rap and hip-hop artist. Among the most successful entertainers in America, he has a net worth of more than $150 million, has sold more than 30 million albums in the United States and has received multiple Grammy Awards.

Tickets: $35-$125 at Ticketmaster.
