Rapper and business mogul Jay-Z has announced that he will give an exclusive performance of his American Gangster album during New Year’s Eve weekend at The Palms Casino in Las Vegas.

On December 29, Jay-Z will perform selections from the critically acclaimed album American Gangster inside The Pearl, one of Las Vegas’ best known concert theaters, which can accommodate up to 2,500 ticket holders.

“The evening is going to be a throw back to 1960’s style Las Vegas,” Jay-Z told AllHipHop.com. “This is definitely going to be the place to be for New Year’s weekend.”

The performance will highlight a banner year for the current President of Def Jam, who helped the Island Def Jam Music Group earn a total of 29 Grammy nods this year, 26 of them attributed to Def Jam artists.

Tickets to see Jay-Z at The Pearl go on sale Saturday (December 15) at noon.

Prices range from $128.00 – $228.00 dollars.

Fans can purchase tickets at any Ticketmaster location or at The Pearl Box Office.

Doors open at 7:00 PM.
