DJ Jay-Z wants to party with you

Hold onto your decks. He may already be a multi-million dollar recording artist but Jay-Z knows where his true calling lies: in party DJing.

The rapper has decided to get his DJ Hero on and will be available to play at your private function, for a fee of course. The 39-year-old explained, "I've got a whole plan. I'm gonna get me a little Serato set, some DJ software. I'm gonna work on that for six months, then I'm gonna find out which DJ makes the most and charge double and tour, do bar mitzvahs, weddings."

But it won't just be Jay-Z spinning tunes; the rapper is determined to give parties more bang for their buck. "I'm gonna have video behind me and dancers. I'm gonna have people just go out and pour champagne when I get to a certain song. I'm going to make a whole show of this thing. If you want to book me, book me early, because the prices will be a little better because when I get good, I'm really going to go for it."
