Press, Associated. "Jay-Z: Bringing Nets to Brooklyn an American dream." Sports illustrated. 9 27 2012: 1. Web. 1 Oct. 2012.

Jay-Z has accomplished a lot in his career, but his latest feat has him feeling that like he's living the American dream. "Yeah I think I'm the American dream,'' "That whole thing that you could come here and pull yourself up by the bootstraps, like that whole thing what America has always put up to the world that we represent. I feel that. Yes, I've lived that.'' Says Artists/Part Owner of Brooklyn Nets/Game Producer/ Owner of New York knicks Sean Carter (Jay-Z).

           

Although Jay Z has accomplished so much throughout his years, he still seems to keep toping each accomplishment. His latest accomplishment involved him moving the New Jersey Nets to Brooklyn his hometown. Brooklyn was where Jay Z was born and raised throughout his childhood. Now, he has grown up and become rich. He still gives back to the “Hood”. His way of doing this was moving the New Jersey Nets to Brooklyn. My Opinion is that Jay Z is indeed living the American Dream. Through all he has done over his 42 years of living and what he’s still working on doing is the American Dream.
