Jay-Z And Black Eyed Peas Unharmed by Concert Ticket Sales

    Concert ticket sales are feeling the full effect of the volatile state of the economy. Pollstar.com recently announced that key concert industry indicators show a 15% drop in sales – a noticeable decline from sales of years past. Yet while the industry at large is burdened with this shortcoming in sales, a few key artists are still able to bring in the bucks.

    Although this summer’s 100 most profitable North American tours prominently feature rock and country acts, both Jay-Z and the Black Eyed Peas rank in the top 20 tours on the list. The B.E.P. are holding steady at number 6 with 464,201 tickets sold, while Hova barely missed the top ten at spot number 12 with 269,564 tickets sold.

    12. Read Carfully……

      In Houston, 50 cent did a show in a little arena and did not sell out one bit. His tickets sales was so bad, the owner confess he took a major loss from 50. But i do remember T.I. did the same arena and COMPLETELY SOLD OUT. JAY-Z sold out the Toyota Center this pass year and New Orleans arena.

      Jay is at the point he has to move his concerts to stadiums. A good tour for Hov is join with Diddy, Dirty Money, Rick Ross, Nikki Minaj and Drake. Thats a billion dollar tour.

    14. Well of course Hov and the Peas are selling out arenas. regardless of if you like their music or not, they’re hot commodities. 50 not selling out isn’t a big surprise since his career is in a flux. he kinda screwed himself with the “50 is an island” thing he had going. But where this is really going to hurt is the up and coming artists that don’t have multi-million dollar camps behind them even though they say they did it overnight and all by their onsies (yes Drake, I mean you. Still luv ya though kid). Indie artists are going to find it hard to get people to pay to hear them perform.

    15. With so many fish in the sea, finding Mr. or Mrs. Right can be tricky. However, I happen to find this great place for all white and black people meet and go online da-ting at
      ____B l a c k w h i t e C u p i d // C o m____.
      Lots of my friends found their lovers through the service.

    16. Yehh obviously thier not going to be harmed, as they both pushing th same agenda, same accult. Thier both pushing the illuminati, thier money is safe, in return 4 thier souls, but all u people chose 2 b blind to the fact that they do it. evil artists!!!

      1. before you try to save the word from the occult and whatnot, maybe you should learn how to spell the words THEIR, OCCULT, BE, TO, etc.

    17. this third eye garbage is nothing but old rhetoric that’s been spit since humans evolved to being supreme (in brain power). there is no occult, no heaven, no hell.. there is no spook in the sky or no demon in the eye.. the world would be much better off if we realized that peace was up to us and that you have one life, nothing after, we’d make the most of each day and celebrate every chance we got.. but then WORK would become less valuable and industry would suffer. cultures knew what they were doing when THEY created religion. Belief is the most powerful tool a human being possesses. if we don’t believe it, we don’t do it. knowledge is not enough. knowledge is programming, whether it be the church, or other institutions. once programs, robots can be influenced and often controlled. the illumanti or any other gang is just that, a collective effort to gain dominance. history’s evidence is clear, we kill each other to survive.. think about how long we’d survive if we didn’t kill each other over senseless beliefs, twisted by the powers that be.. “everybody can tell you how to do it, they never did it.” funny how someone can tell you about death and they never died, funny how they can tell you how glorious heaven is and never visited. “Ithica does not exist, only the journey to Ithica.”

    19. it’s interesting to see bon jovi is number 1 but yet rappers say you shouldnt be performing at such an old age

      1. great point.. we still got a long way to go in hip hop to push the genre to places where people have life long careers.. al green just did an album 2 years ago.. i hope the best keep putting out work and take us to places we’ve never seen in hiphop culture.. “i’m thinking longevity until i’m seventy, felony after felony, what homie, you broke, what the flip you gon’ tell me… “

    20. Dam Metallica is like 50 on the list but they only did a handful of shows and grossed a shit load of money.
