Viper says on 6/Jul/08
So hes not even 6-1 barefoot. Brad says on 5/Jul/08
Saw him again in Vegas. 6' 1" plus big footwear. His bodyguards are buildings so he looks smaller than you'd realize. Nice guy but his club is getting bad vibes.
amber says on 2/Jul/08
he dont look 6'2 people say he looks mad tall idk and idc cause i aint never c him in real life. Scott says on 1/Jul/08
Hey Rob - an upgrade is required here.
Jay Z is 100% taller than Ross. Ross is in dress shoes and Zee is in sneakers:
Click Here
Ross readily, clumsily and slightly embarrassingly notes Jay Z is taller than he is. Ross is 6'1.5 therefore Jay Z is 6'2 MINIMUM.
In my humble opinion ;)
Hopefully the youtube clip is pretty conclusive. Viper says on 1/Jul/08
He doesnt look anymore than 6-1 to me. Sid says on 28/Jun/08
Jonathan Ross said last night (not in exact quotes) 'wow i thoought a little guy was gonna come out, you bigger than me your a good six footer, six two something like that' he did have easy 0.5 in on ross. Bruce says on 27/Jun/08
i will definately give jay-z a strong 6'1.75" nearly 6'2" because he is very tall. No wonder he claims 6'2" Rhonda says on 27/Jun/08
he was on the johnathan ross show tonight and he was the same height as ross glenn says on 20/Jun/08
durst is 5-9. Alex says on 18/Jun/08
Eminem could be 5'8 too. No more than that though. If Eminem is 5'7 than Fred Durst is no more than that too. Viper says on 19/May/08
Eminem is 5-7. mimi says on 1/May/08
he is 6'2,but he look damn tall in diz pix,as if he wear high heels kev says on 6/Apr/08
lebron is listed at 6-8! Jake Is Back says on 6/Apr/08
Looks 6'1" max next to 6'7.25" Lebron James in pictures. In some he is struggling w/ 6'. ENY MIKE says on 3/Apr/08
I have a pic with me and jay n we both the same ht so JAY IS 6'1 barefoot if he's wearin timbs he's a good almost 6'3 with airforce 1's or any other footwear he 6'2 Ramsay Fan #420 says on 2/Apr/08
I'm 6ft and have met Jay-Z a few times, he was MAYBE an inch taller. camaco 9 says on 30/Mar/08
i alwaya figured he was around 6 3 or so but years ago will smith presented him with an american music award and he was taller than jay and he is around 6 2 glenn says on 22/Feb/08
like dj 5 star says below,in the 90s the man looked 6-3 to me.lately looking 6ft.5.strange. Alex says on 22/Feb/08
I went to a Linkin Park concert last night and I was on the floor and pretty close to the stage when Jay-Z made a special appearance and I tell you he didn't look 6'1 but I could be wrong since I was on the ground and he was on stage. He looked more 5'11 to me to be honest. I was suprised because he looks 6'1 on tv and in pictures. DJ 5 Star says on 15/Jan/08
Let me end the rumors. Jay is about 6'2". I stand at the same height and have DJed at clubs that he has been in. He looks to be almost 6'3", but he's right at it. glenn says on 18/Dec/07
maybe.but i think i grew around 1994. glenn says on 10/Dec/07
he does look slighty under 6-1 lately.6-3 in the 90s. Marc says on 10/Dec/07
I saw Jay Z at Paris airport last saturday december 8th. He walks beside me wiht Beyonce and 2 bodyguards.First I tought it was Usher! Because he is definitly shorter than 6'3. I really think that Jay Z is 6' or 6'1. No way he is taller that that! Viper says on 14/Nov/07
You couldnt be more wrong about this. 6-0 for 50 cent actually seems more tall for him. And Jay Z isnt over 6-1 1/2. J says on 13/Nov/07
Jay-z seems to be 6-2 to 6-4 range. Next to lebron james he only seemed to be 3 to 4 inches shorter and i think Lebron is 6'8. I read 50 cent being 6'0 which seems short for him. Al says on 9/Oct/07
in 2003 when the lakers lost to the nets in blowout fashion in NJ i was there. at the time i was a freshman in highschool but i was 6ft tall. i know this because i had recently joined the football team where the physician took our height and weight. and i met Jay at the game and got his autograph. all my friends and i kept sayin was that we never new jay-z was that short he was 5'10" EZ.jay-z lied, and the guy in the picture is just tryin to compensate for some reason Kate says on 17/Sep/07
Met Jay Z at the MTV premier at UN last year. He is 6'2" to 6'3". He is not massive as someone wrote below. He is actually quite slim. sofia says on 1/Sep/07
AAAA says on 15/Aug/07
He looks close to 6'2 in this pic and he isn't even standing straight AAAA says on 15/Aug/07
He looks close to 6'2 in this pic and he isn't even standing straight Anthony says on 13/Aug/07
Jay-Z is 38. Ben says on 12/Aug/07
Just to give Leonardi a heads up, he's over 40 dude. glenn says on 5/Aug/07
jay z did appear shorter than i remembered him,and i said plenty of times how i know healthy people in their 40s that give the illusion of being shorter than what they were.jay seemed a hair over 6ft,as opposed to the 6-3 i thought i remembered him at.he did have a hell of a slouch going of course. leonari says on 5/Aug/07
Matthew: Such bull****. Really. You are...Jay isn't even 40 !!! At that age when you are healthy you don't lose any height. How old are you 10? Check your facts before posting stupidities. Matthew says on 4/Aug/07
Urr, Jay-z Is definately not 6'3 now, he wouldnt undercut his own height..although, i guess it is possible for him to have lost an inch since his "prime"...lets not forget, the man is nearly 40 now, and btw, Timms give you 2 inches, not 3-4. I assume he is 6'1/ 6'1 1/2 bare foot, which in timms, would bring him to 6'3...i can't see him being 6'2, that would mean in footwear (timms, airmax etc..) he would be 6'4 ...which he has never looked, so i give him 6'1 barefoot, 6'2 in shoes/trainers, 6'3 in timms maybe. d says on 28/Jul/07
jay looks taller than rob bourdon, drummer of linkin park, who's about 6'2-3 ..he should be about 6'4. Viper says on 20/Jul/07
jay is really no more than 6-1 in most pics. Marc says on 19/Jul/07
I believe 6´2 or even taller ..
If jay would pull his shoulders back and the head up he could nearly lay his chin on Glenns head!
I saw him live and he seems massive! dmeyer says on 2/Jul/07
if straight about 6'2 balla says on 1/Jul/07
Glenn is standing straight up, and Jay-Z is leaning a little, but look, Jay-Z's eyes are even with the top of Glenn's head (5'8") and his forehead cannot be any taller than 4 inches, making him 6 foot even. I will say 6'1 even because he is leaning a little. Gwen says on 23/May/07
I believe if the man say he is 6'2 he's 6'2 i really don't care i love him with his fine ass Brad says on 20/Apr/07
I pulled his NYPD arrest jacket. He's 6' 1". Anthony says on 10/Apr/07
I saw pics where Denzel was taller than Jay-Z, believe it or not. I do think he's around 6'1, though. footballed28 says on 9/Apr/07
I can see an easy 6 -7 inch difference between the two...so I dont see how he can be less than 6'2...so even if Glenn is not a full 5'8 I will still give Jay Z 6'2 Erik says on 17/Mar/07
Me friends met Jay-z and Beanie Segal at a basketball game a while back. I was 5'10" at the time and he towerd over me. i also saw a picture of him with snoop dogg and snoop had him by a little bit. not much. plus air force ones actually give u almost a inch Viper says on 11/Mar/07
A good chance he wears lifts. glenn says on 10/Mar/07
yeah,jay looked 6-3 to me in the late 90s.i was shocked last month to see what you saw.6ft. Clash says on 9/Mar/07
saw Jay Z yesterday on the street as he came out of an Art Gallery. I am 6'2" he is definitely shorter. I'd say around 6' even. It was cold so maybe he was slouching. J. says on 23/Feb/07
Jay-Z and "The King": Click Here
He's defintely in the 6'1" range. And still hideously ugly after all these years. Viper says on 11/Feb/07
Glenn, these pictures show A-rod is 6-2 at his absolute best, though I think hes more 6-1 1/2 exactly. He looks between 6-1 and 6-2 in most pics. Click Here Glenn says on 12/Jan/07
Oh.really? there both listed at 6-3 though,correct? Viper says on 12/Jan/07
No, Jeter has close to an inch on A-rod. Glenn says on 12/Jan/07
I dont know about that one Viper.I thought Alex and Derek Jeter were of similiar height. Viper says on 10/Jan/07
The funny thing is Alex Rodriguez is more 6-1 1/2, not 6-3. He looked the exact same height as 6-1 Barry Bonds in pictures similar to those. Ive seen a couple of pictures where Jay Z looks tqaller than A-rod actually. Glenn says on 7/Jan/07
I always saw 6-3 as well. Top Cat says on 7/Jan/07
I know Jay-Z. Ran into him so many times he thought I was a b list star or something. He's 6.3, I'm 6.1, he was atleast 2 inch taller than me. Brad says on 8/Dec/06
Depends on his footwear. He goes from low cut sneakers to dress shoes to big a$$ boots. The guy was 6' 3" with me shaking his hand in boots. I'll give him around 6' 1" plus the added. His bodyguard was gigantic...not Snoop bodyguard large...but in shape 6' 7". Glenn says on 23/Nov/06
I have witnesses with Denzel. and it wasnt me that spotted it.look at my Denzel pic.he is 6ft tops.with a slouch that makes him shorter. Viper652 says on 22/Nov/06
Whats funny is Glenn says hes seen Denzel at only 5-10 once, and 6-3 for Jay-Z. Lil D says on 21/Nov/06
I saw an episode of TRL with Jay-Z and Denzel Washington. Well Denzel looked about 2 inches or maybe even 3 inches taller than Jay-Z. Now Denzel had on a suit and most likely dress shoes while Jay-Z had on street clothes and tennis shoes so that might have gave him an advantage...but he really looked way shorter. Also Denzel was standing up very straight while Jay-Z had his usual slouch. Glenn says on 19/Nov/06
Some kid I know was showing me his picture of him and Jay z.Jay z was an inch taller than this 6-1 kid.I used to misjudge Jay at 6-3. Alex says on 19/Nov/06
He's at least 6'1, maybe 6'1.5 like he's listed here. Timberland boots really give you 1.5 inches of height, not 2-3. Well at least the ones I got give just 1.5 inches. Glenn says on 4/Nov/06
He always looked 6-3 to me. Viper652 says on 3/Nov/06
He and R Kelly look about the same height in pictures, and Kelly is 6-1. Brad says on 3/Nov/06
Yeah, he wore those Timberland boots. I'll go to 6' 1" now. Those things add 2-3 inches. Emily says on 18/Oct/06
i thought he was taller...hmm guess he just looks tall. Glenn says on 17/Oct/06
Yes.1.5. D. Ray Morton says on 17/Oct/06
Timberlands have about 1.5" in sole height. 3" would be the special KISS model (they recently changed their costumes to fit more of a Village People theme, lord knows why). Viper652 says on 17/Oct/06
Yeah, I dont think Timberlands have 2-3 inches naturally. The real question is does he have lifts built inside them. Jason says on 16/Oct/06
He wears Timberland boots all the time, my brother has those boots they add at least 2-3 inches
[Padraig: Nonsense. 2-3 inches, you throw that out there showing you have no idea how much. 3 inches is a f***ing heel height :=)
No offence Jason, but 1.5 inches might be more realistic. Sorry if I come across harsh.] Anonymous says on 12/Oct/06
He's said himself that he's 6'2 and I think he looks like it. On differnt photos he doesn't look bigger. Viper652 says on 29/Sep/06
Does Jay Z wear lifts? He looks well over 6-3 in a couple of dodgy pictures with Alex Rodriguez who I peg at 186-187. Click Here Glenn says on 12/Sep/06
I had 6-1.5 friends I thought were 6-3. Viper652 says on 12/Sep/06
Some 6-1 guys can pass off being 6-3. Beleive me, Ive overestimated 6-1 guys as well. Glenn says on 11/Sep/06
I agree.I always thought he was 6-3.yeah, Brad.thank you. Anonymous says on 11/Sep/06
looks 6 ft2 in piceven sloushing
David says on 23/Aug/06
I met jay-z at trl last year when he brought NE-yo in and 50 cent was also there promoting his movie, i can say that i shook hands with jay-z as he passed right by me towards the end of the shot. im 5"11 and have always wondered how tall Jay was, i can tell u that he is 6"1-6"1/2. tops!!! trust me on this 6"1 is the most accurate you can get without measuring him in person lol Brad says on 6/Aug/06
Solid 6' 3" when I ran into him. I had him beat by 2". He likes to play black jack at The Bellagio. Nice guy. Jeff says on 2/Aug/06
Definitly on the dot. I met him in my restaurant @ Morimoto and he is 6'1". He was wearing white uptowns so at would give him a extra inch. Viper652 says on 22/Apr/06
I bet hes calling his height in shoes. He look exactly the same height as 6-1 R Kelly whenever they were together. young t says on 20/Apr/06
in his latest internets chat on rocafella.com he says he is 6'2
[Editor Rob: why thank you for pointing this out young t!!!
JAY Z - "I'm really short. LOL. That was a joke. I'm not really short. My attempt at humor. I'm 6'2"
]
~Nate~ says on 6/Apr/06
I remember when I almost met Jay Z a few years back at the Beverly Center. He walked right past me, if thats what a 6'1 man is suppose to look like that makes no sense what so ever. He was a good 3 inches if not more taller then me. This kid is tall, and I was wearing my Aldo boots when I met him which made me a little taller prolly like 6'1. So If I was 6'1 in those boots theres no way Jay was 6'1, he was wearing sneakers and like I said was still at least 3 inches taller then me, this 6'1 stuff is BS.
[Editor Rob: well, technically we're giving him 187cm ;-)
but, is this guy the same height as say Terrell Owens who is measured just about 6ft 3
maybe he is?] Eddd says on 25/Mar/06
No WAY. I know him even more personally, I'm his home boy. And he's no less than 7'4" ComeON says on 14/Mar/06
Jay-Z 6'3,I know him personally and he is defintely a solid 6'3....Get it right people. Jake says on 5/Mar/06
Jay Z is not 6'3", or even 6'2", he is 6'1.5" and is making a stupid face in the pic w/ Glenn. dmeyer says on 25/Feb/06
6'2" seems right Glenn says on 24/Feb/06
I always thought he looked 6-3. CoolJ says on 23/Feb/06
Willz: are we supposed to take the opinion of someone who says "shyt" seriously?
Hamilton easily has 4" on him.. maybe more. 6'1.5 looks good to me. CBlack says on 19/Feb/06
Jay can't be more than 6'1", 6'1.5" at the most. I stood right next to him at the 40/40 club. I'm 5'6" or 5'9" with heels and my fiance is 6'2" and Jay-Z was a little shorter than him. Ujane, Moscow says on 14/Feb/06
2 Viper652:
I`ma 6ft 1.5/2 and I play basketball 4 2.5 yrs! What kind of sport do your prefer to spend time to? Ujane, Moscow says on 12/Feb/06
I wanna 2 say just three words: H-E I-S T-A-L-L-E-R! That`s it!))) |
