His clothing label's been in existence for more than 15 years, but Jay-Z's commercial was the company's first one! His voiceover in the commercial implies that Rome wasn't built in a day and that success takes time to evolve and grow.
He stated, "My goal was to have one gold album and that was it. And then it became; I want to show that an artist can ascend to the executive ranks."
