Heart of 
Orange County

Mary J. Blige and Jay-Z

By KATE CARRAWAY

Despite his bad luck with shared stages (his 2004 Best of Both Worlds tour with R. Kelly went down in legal flames), Jay-Z is teaming up with another R&B sensei for a series of stadium dates (except this one isn't, well, crazy). The Mary J. Blige & Jay-Z: Heart of the City tour brings together the newlywed, definitely not retired Jigga and drama-free diva Mary J., erstwhile collaborators who are both way past owning their respective games. This level and kind of talent tends not to wane with age, and reports from recent dates assure Jay and Mary are in top form.
