Rumors have surfaced that Jay-Z would perform with Justin Timberlake at the 2018 Super Bowl, but it appears that Jay-Z has said no to the premise.

According to rumors and unconfirmed sources, Jay-Z turned down the chance to perform with his good friend Justin Timberlake at the 2018 Super Bowl. Lady Gaga’s performance drew a world-wide audience of 117 million people, and perhaps Justin and Jay-Z together could have rivaled that total

There are conflicting reports as to why Jay-Z allegedly turned down the offer, but one could speculate that solidarity with Colin Kaepernick would be one of the reasons. So it appears that you wont be hearing any 4:44 tracks being performed before the fourth quarter at next year’s Super Bowl.
