The crowd at V Fest was in for a surprise when rapper Jay Z paid tribute to his late pal Chester Bennington during his performance on Saturday.
The 47-year-old rapper concluded his headline set at Weston Park, Staffordshire with a performance of ?Numb/Encore?, the only single from the album ?Collision Course? which the rapper collaborated with Bennington and his band ?Linkin Park? back in 2004.
According to Mirror, the rapper was cheering for the late singer in the crowds saying, ?Can I get some love for Chester tonight?" before asking them to "make some noise so he can hear you in heaven".
Earlier this month, the rapper?s close friend and ?Coldplay? frontman Chris Martin also paid tribute to the late singer at a concert in New Jersey with a solo rendition of piano version of ?Crawling?- Linkin Park?s 2000 hit.
Bennington, 41, tragically took his own life at his home at his home in Palos Verdes, California, last month due to extensive battle with depression.
The late ?Linkin Park? star was laid to rest earlier this month in a private ceremony with his close family and friends.
