You would never have known it was a bad week for Jay-Z. There he was, two days after the election, at P.

He and Kelly had planned a fall tour together, but Jay-Z blamed Kelly for showing up late, canceled shows and finally kicked him off the bill. Kelly, in turn, accused the rapper's posse of sabotaging his equipment and dousing him with pepper spray. (See you in court.) Oh, yes, and Kelly wants $75 million for wrongful termination of his contract.
