Denver, CO (PRWEB) May 02, 2014 -- She’s won 16 Grammys, he has 17. Forbes recently ranked her as one of the top five most powerful celebs on the planet, while rating his net worth at over $500 million. He brings 50 million albums sold to the picture. She’s sold over 88 million, making her one of the best selling artists of all time.
We’re talking, of course, about power couple Beyoncé and Jay Z who wed in 2008 and now have a daughter Blue Ivy Carter. Years ago, in October 2002, amid intense speculation that they were dating, the pop/R&B star and hip-hop artist/rapper teamed to release their first collaboration, the lead single from Jay Z's album, "The Blueprint 2: The Gift & The Curse."
Seven months after the release of that album, Beyoncé featured Jay Z on her debut solo single from her 2003 album Dangerously in Love. The song stayed at Number One on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for eight consecutive weeks. And, it was critically acclaimed for its infectious go-go drums and horns, in addition to the music video that introduced Beyoncé's famous "oh, oh, oh" booty dance and catwalk.
“Beyoncé and Jay Z tickets are trending at the top of sales traffic nationwide," said Marta Ault at online ticket marketplace BuyAnySeat.com. “The couple’s 16-date On the Run tour opens on June 25 at the Sun Life Stadium in Miami and wraps on August 5, 2014 at AT&T Park in San Francisco.
“Stops along the way include Cincinnati, Foxborough, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Toronto, East Rutherford, Atlanta, Houston, New Orleans, Arlington, Chicago, Winnipeg, Seattle and Pasadena.
“That’s why we’re proud to be able to offer fans the most comprehensive and continuously updated selection of concert tickets available, with a worry-free guarantee to protect their purchase,” added Ault.

Beyoncé hit the mainstream in the 1990s as the lead singer of Destiny's Child, one of the world's best-selling girl groups in history. Since then, the star has had a very successful solo career and has been named one of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time by VH1.
By all appearances, the pop superstar has mastered the art of perfection. Both critics and her faithful “BeyHive” of fans applaud her poise, polish and her precise performances – complete with numerous designer-inspired costume changes. In addition, she was named one of Forbes most powerful celebrities for 2013 after Oprah, Lady Gaga, and Steven Spielberg.
Jay Z has helped define the rap music genre since 1995. Considered one of the greatest rappers in music, he was ranked Number One by MTV in their list of The Greatest MCs of All-Time in 2006. Three of his albums, Reasonable Doubt (1996), The Blueprint (2001), and The Black Album (2003), are also thought to be landmarks in the genre, and all are featured in Rolling Stone's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
Jay Z is also one of the most financially successful hip-hop artists and entrepreneurs in America. In its November 2012 issue, Forbes Magazine estimated Jay Z’s net worth at nearly $500 million.
Currently, the artist co-owns the 40/40 Club, has a minority stake in NBA's Brooklyn Nets and is also co-creator of the clothing line Rocawear. He is also the co-founder of Roc-A-Fella Records and former CEO of Def Jam Recordings. Plus, he is the founder of Roc Nation and the sports agency Roc Nation Sports – and a certified NBA and MLB sports agent.
