Before the New England Patriots took on the Green Bay Packers in a preseason game last year, Tom Brady jogged onto the Gillette Stadium field with "Public Service Announcement" by Jay Z blaring over the speakers.
Brady's choice of song may have been in response to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's decision to uphold Brady's four-game suspension over the whole DeflateGate scandal. However, the Patriots star quarterback is not only a genuine fan of the rapper, but he uses the track to get into the zone. “That’s been my choice for a long time,” Brady said, according to NESN. “I’m a big fan of his.” And Brady isn't the only one in the Patriots organization who is a fan of Hov. Patriots owner Robert Kraft has even hung out with Jay in the past.
As if we needed to tell you, but the song, "Public Service Announcement" comes off Jay Z's The Black Album. So, when he wanted to get the word out on his newest black-on-black "TB12" hat, Brady used a weird Photoshopped image where his face replaced Hov's.
While we're not sure Brady was the one who sat in front of the computer and got his Photoshop on, we do have one minor criticism: Why did were Jay's hands kept in the image? Four weeks away from the game of football, and Brady couldn't improve his Photoshop game? How else was he utilizing his time? Oh, okay.
