Deets inside...

The performances will be on February 6 and 7th. With tix on sale privately December 12th and limited public tickets January 30th.
He was spotted hopping in his Maybach before heading uptown for the announcement this morning:
And thanks to our homies at Rap Radar, here's some footage of what Mr. Carter had to say about it all:
He commented:
“It’s every artists dream to play a venue as legendary as Carnegie Hall. The fact that I can use the arts and my talent to benefit the education of the next generation of artists, entrepreneurs, and great thinkers makes for a legendary night. I’m proud to be a part of the continuing work of United Way of New York City and expanding the Shawn Carter Scholarship Foundation.”
Nice!
