Beyoncé might be the world’s biggest star, but Jay-Z is no slouch. His high energy and enthusiasm kept the stadium dancing and moving for the whole show. The rapper’s skilled wordplay is truly something to behold.

And of course, Beyoncé. Her acclaimed performance at this year’s Coachella music festival sparked discussion of whether she might be the greatest entertainer alive. Her spirit this tour proves it. Her singing and dancing were perfect and she comes across as genuine in a way few artists can.

“On the Run II” is an unforgettable experience, and the Carters have truly enjoyed their spot in the pantheon of great artists.
