The full introduction to US rapper's Jay-Z's performance at the Glastonbury Festival last Saturday (June 28th) has been published on the internet.
The film, which satirises comments made by Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher in the build up to the festival, was not broadcast to TV viewers due to copyright infringement.
Jay-Z introduction
As previously reported on Gigwise, following the video introduction, Jay-Z walked on stage and performed a cover of Oasis's 1995 hit 'Wonderwall'.

The introduction video starts and finishes with Noel Gallagher saying it is “wrong” for a hip-hop act to be headlining Glastonbury.
In between the guitarist's comments the film features cut up speeches from a number of political figures, including presidential hopeful Barack Obama and the UK's Prime Minister, Gordon Brown.
