He might have been dumped out of the X Factor USA earlier this week but 15-year-old rapper Astro, real name Brian Bradley, appears to have landed on his feet,with it being heavily rumoured he's already been scooped up by Jay-Z's Roc Nation imprint.

 Jay is said to have been highly impressed by Astro's level of performance on the talent show, despite him being cut from the final seven last night, pointing to his confidence and lyrics. And there's more – according to reports, Hov already has the Brooklyn rapper lined up for a duet with Willow Smith on her new album!

What do you think, does Jay have a future star on his hands?
