Jay-Z may have 99 problems, but streaming his concerts through YouTube sure ain't one.

The rapper will live-stream the finale of his eight-performance concert series at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. on Saturday at 9:30 p.m. ET, from his new YouTube channel, Life and Times.

The channel is part of a YouTube initiative to bring more original programming to the site. As of now, the page has more than 116,000 subscribers. Featured video playlists already up include "Leisure," "Decoded" and "Roc Nation Artists," among others.

The Barclays Center is the new home of the Brooklyn Nets (formerly of New Jersey), of which Jay-Z has minority ownership.
