Jay-Z, Questlove Expand Restaurant Holdings With Dueling Chicken Joints
Two of New York’s preeminent hip-hop artists are making
moves in the city’s casual restaurant scene this week.
Buffalo Boss, the organic and hormone-free wing shack that counts Jay-Z as an investor, signed a 10-year, 600-square-foot lease at, fittingly, 400 Jay Street in Downtown Brooklyn. Buffalo Boss, notes Crain’s, is owned by Hova’s cousin, Jamar White, and has another Brooklyn location at 554 Fulton Street. It also cooks up the “official wings” of the Brooklyn Nets, the hoops team that Jay-Z had a minority stake in until cashing out his roughly .02 percent holding so as to legally begin a career as a sports agent.
Adam Stupak of Task Real Estate represented Buffalo Boss in the lease.
