Jay-Z and Justin Timberlake are two people who are very, very good at performing in front of vast crowds, and they’re both present on Timberlake’s new “Suit & Tie” single. And it just makes sense that both guys are about to link up and spend their summer playing shows at vast football and baseball stadiums across North America. Jay did something like this with Eminem a few years ago, but there they only played Detroit and New York. (He’s also done co-headlining tours with DMX, R. Kelly, Mary J. Blige, Kanye West, and probably some other people I’m forgetting, but those were in piddling little arenas.) This one represents a greatly increased scope, and it could be pretty incredible.

Timberlake’s new album The 20/20 Experience is out 3/19 on RCA, and maybe it’s not a coincidence that I’m getting an ominous Jay-Z Kingdom Come vibe from all the songs I’ve heard from it.
