Kanye West x Jay-Z are two of the most profound artists to come through the rap game in our lifetime, and it’s no surprise that their popularity continues on to more generations to come. The duo kicked off their collaborative tour the other night (Friday October 28) in Atlanta, Georgia to give fans something like they have never seen before.

The entire two hour set featured only the two rappers, with solo sets and a collaborative portion to the show for fans of their latest works. Beyoncé was even spotted with her sidekick Julius sitting front and center to support her hubby and Daddy to be, rocking a black ensemble and curled hair. It looks as though her nephew’s father is standing alongside her in the crowd.

The usual things happened. Kanye pushed the envelope fashion wise in a leather kilt and got super emotional when he belted out “Runaway,” while Jay-Z had fans throw up the “roc” diamonds and sing along to “Empire State of Mind.” Check out the pair’s kick off to one of the most widely anticipated tours yet.
