Jay-Z learnt to perform live by watching Bono

November 3rd, 2009 - 2:13 pm ICT by ANI Tell a Friend -

Washington, Nov 3 (ANI): Hip-hop artist Jay-Z has revealed that he became adept at performing live only after watching Irish singer Bono’s stage performance.

Jay-Z, 39, admits that he used to be a “horrible performer”, and that it was only after hours of studying footage of Bono in concert for tips that he improved his own stage shows.

“These days, I’m the s**t, but I used to be a horrible performer. I was terrible,” Contactmusic quoted him as saying.

“I’m not really an animated guy so I had to figure out a way how to convey my message and talk to people in compact movements, all the while, being entertaining. There is a very thin line between not moving and being boring.

“Bono knows how to exaggerate his movements and he knows how to have that conversation, without moving around much. He’s a dynamic performer,” he added. (ANI)
