December 4th, which is Jay-Z's birthday, may become "Jay-Z Day" in New York City in the very near future. 

City Council member Farah Louis is the person that first introduced the legislation. The proposal will go before the council starting on January 3rd.

Louis said -

“Both his career and success have spanned decades. The accolades for Mr. Carter are filling museums, magazines, and libraries. TV shows and radio programs clamor to provide content dedicated to his masterful work that has inspired many. December 4th, as Jay-Z Day, announces to the world how this Brooklyn son can be all things including loved by his community.”

If this proposal is approved it would be the 2nd day in NYC dedicated to legends of hip hop. Earlier this year, NYC proclaimed November 9th as "Wu-Tang Day" to honor the group and also the release of their 1st album "Enter The Wu Tang (36 Chambers).

If I had any say in this then I say let's do it. Pass this proposal and make December 4th "Jay-Z Day"!
