Jay-Z paused his concert last night to deliver a powerful feminist message to a young fan standing in the crowd.
Speaking to the nine-year-old girl in the audience the rap mogul said: “You can be anything you want to be in this world. At this very moment America is way more sexist than they are racist, but you young lady, you got the potential to be the next president of the United States, you believe that.”
The moving moment from the Cleveland show was caught on camera. Watch below via Twitter.
