Last year was a 12-month long victory lap for Jay Z, as the cultural icon effortlessly floated through 2013 by establishing #NewRules in the music industry, adding “sports agent” to his resume, and growing as an entrepreneur by building his net worth with more million dollar business endeavors and celebrity endorsements.

However, the MCHG rapper did catch one L in 2013 with news revealing Hov lost his annual "GUTS" fantasy football league despite drafting assistance from ESPN’s Matthew Berry. Not only does the league's champion Steve Stoute have eternal bragging rights for beating Jay Z and well-known fierce celebrity competitors like Chris Paul, he also gets to take home a "GFL" championship ring.

Congratulations Steve Stoute–but given Jay Z's track record, we don't expect a repeat end result next year.
