The scene unfolded at Hov’s JAYZ30 pop-up in NYC. Blue Ivy and Jay-Z posed together in matching “cool” energy. both throwing up the Roc sign while standing in front of the Apple Music backdrop. Jay-Z kept things simple in a plain white tee and dark shades, with his afro out. Blue Ivy matched the vibe in a gray NYC shirt and glasses, wearing a long, slicked-back braid and gold earrings.
