Hard to believe that it was just a month ago that Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington passed away and his loss continues to be felt by fans worldwide and artists in the music industry.

Over the weekend while headlining V Festival in the UK, JAY-Z decided to pay tribute to Chester by closing out his set with a performance of “Numb/Encore’ – off his 2004 collaborative album with Linkin Park, Collision Course.

 

 

“Can you guys light it up for Chester from Linkin Park one time tonight…Please make some noise so he can hear you all the way in heaven tonight” Jay told the crowd.

Chester tragically committed suicide late last month.
