A 12-year-old boy's dream came true when rapper Jay Z invited him on the stage to rap at his concert in North Carolina.
The kid, Justin, got the opportunity after Jay Z spotted him in the crowd holding up a sign that read, "Can I rap for you?" at the 'Marga Carter' tour to Greensboro, North Carolina, reported Ace Showbiz.
Jay-Z then asked Justin to join him and handed him the microphone. The boy was visibly nervous before he rapped Jay Z's 'Clique'.
The 44-year-old rapper even mentored him in front of the crowd-packed stadium in another of his songs, telling him to skip the "the drug dealing part" of the track.
