MSNBC's censors had a dubious task tonight, trying to keep up with swearing during Jay Z and Beyonce's performances at the Global Citizen Festival in Central Park. Even though Hov self-censored his crude opening to "Big Pimpin'" you can clearly hear the crowd rapping, "Thug em', fuck 'em, love 'em, leave em'" in the video above. And in his other songs the censors totally missed him dropping "fuck" and "shit." 

When Jay brought out his wife the two performed "Forever Young" and "Holy Grail," both of which you can see below. 

Make sure you also check out Jay performing "99 Problems," "Tom Ford," and "Empire State of Mind" below.
