Jay-Z Speaks The Con Edison Power Plant Explosion Into Existence

Photo Courtesy of Instagram/@RavieB Jay-Z wasn’t lying on his track Heaven when he said he was a prophet. After a Con Edison power plant in New York City exploded on Dec. 27, Hov fans made a shocking discovery. The lyrics to his 2010 song “Light Up” with Drake, make a clear reference to a similar situation! “Con Edison flowin’, I’m connected to a higher power//Bright lights will make your whole city light up//A trillion-watt light bulb when I’m in the night club,” he raps on the track. Fans of the rapper completely lost their sh*t after catching wind of the prophecy. “ConEd plant in Astoria had a transformer explosion tonight in NYC, making the entire night sky blue. Jay-Z finally hit that triple entendre,” one fan wrote on Twitter. “So Jay-Z really predicted them lights in NY last night. The Goat!!,” another said. “To add to your conspiracy, Jay-z is said to have predicted this alien shit years ago,” a third fan tweeted. Yep, Jay is basically a prophet. The bizarre power plant explosion, which lit up the entire NYC skyline, occurred on Dec. 27, in the Queens borough of the city. While NYC residents initially worried the glowing sky was a result of an alien invasion of some sort, it turns out it was just a possible transformer explosion at Astoria East & North Queens Con Ed power plant, according to the NYPD.
