Jay-Z headlined a concert in his native New York city for the first time in three years last night with a 90-minute set at the Meadow Music and Arts Festival at Citi Field. During the set, Jay-Z dedicated "The Story of O.J.", a song from his new album "4:44", to controversial NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick.

Kaepernick sparked impassioned debate when he started kneeling during the national anthem during last season. A number of NFL players expressed their support for Kaepernick, and many have also decided to protest during the national anthem.

"I want to dedicate this song to Colin Kaepernick tonight," Jay Z said, per ESPN.
