This is not news to some people, but definitely for me. I knew Jay-Z was from Brooklyn New York, but didn’t know how he got his stage name. During my trip to New York I took the subway to Brooklyn and saw this sign. It was as clear as day…JZ.

I looked it up on Wikipedia (because everything on there is true) and confirmed that it was an inspiration for him.

Creativity is everywhere. It’s a matter of us to see it.
