Jay-Z with his Global Leadership Award

When you put Jay-Z‘s career into perspective, it’s hard not to be in awe of the man who went from “Marcy to Madison Square” and who continues to inspire hip-hop fans with his achievements.

The Rocawear founder attended the 2008 Global Leadership Awards in New York City yesterday and was honored with the “Champions of the Millennium Goals Award” for his “Water For Life” initiative and partnership with the United Nations.

Does Jay inspire you and if so, why?
