JAY-Z hasn’t let the lack of a Roc Nation Brunch this year get him down.
TMZ is reporting that Hova threw a star-studded fete in Los Angeles, CA, on Friday (February 2). Attendees at the luxurious Bird Streets Club on Sunset Blvd. in West Hollywood included Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Odell Beckham Jr., Karrueche Tran, and Corey Gamble.
Hip Hop stars also put in an obligatory appearance, including Quavo and Lil Uzi Vert.
It wasn’t confirmed, however, if Hova’s wife Beyoncé was in the building.
The party seemed to be held in the place of the infamous Roc Nation Brunch, which is reportedly off the table this year.
A source close to the Hip Hop billionaire confirmed the cancelation to Page Six on Friday (February 2), The Roc Nation Brunch kicked off in 2011, taking two years off in 2021 and 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and returned in 2023.
No further details have been given about the cancelation, which has led to speculation that Hova’s wife, Beyoncé, will be performing at the Grammys on Sunday (February 4).
While that has not been confirmed or denied, a source close to the couple did confirm that the pair will be appearing at Clive Davis’s Grammy party on Saturday (February 3) instead.
Last year’s Roc Nation Brunch, however, was one for the books.
The power couple were joined by a bevy of friends, family, colleagues, and proteges at a private residence in the hills above Los Angeles after Roc Nation invited industry insiders to “join us for a celebration of the highest elevation of self.”
As fans walked up to the venue, they were welcomed by a small orchestra positioned along a pathway leading up to an uncovered rotunda area. The walls of the roofless foyer were decorated with photos from previous Roc Nation Brunches, including a portrait of Lauren London and Nipsey Hussle captured weeks before Hussle died in 2019.
Just like previous iterations of the exclusive affair, guests seem to have been encouraged to keep to specific colors when it came to their outfits, with shades of pink, white, green, and gray seen on most of the guests. Beyoncé donned a futuristic white outfit reminiscent of the style aesthetic she’s used to promote her seventh studio album Renaissance.
