"Sometimes you need perspective. You've been right in front of greatness so often that you need to step back and see it again for the first time. This is the dressing room rehearsal for 'American Idol.' NO MICROPHONE. No effects." -- Jay-Z

Jay-Z admits he has been spoiled by wife Beyonce's supreme talent and powerful presence. Jay was humbled by Honey B's greatness as she warmed up for her performance on the May 25 season finale of 'American Idol.' The hip-hop mogul posted a clip of the backstage footage to his LifeandTimes website and gushed in the above accompanying message.
