Watch Jay Z Get Embarrassed By His First Television Performance

"The haircut, the shirt ... I mean, everything."

Jay Z might be one of the greatest rappers ever, but that doesn't spare him a past full of embarrassing moments like the rest of us.

The rapper appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" Tuesday night before performing at his TIDAL X concert in Brooklyn and talked about the first time he ever rapped onstage at a concert. Calling it "the worst show ever," the rapper said he said he forgot the lyrics to his own song.

Host Jimmy Kimmel further reminded Jay Z of his humble beginnings by showing a clip of the rapper's first television performance -- possibly ever.

Watch Jay Z get super embarrassed in the funny clip below:

Jay Z later went on to have an awesome concert in Brooklyn, and we don't think he forgot any of the lyrics this time around.
