Jay-Z & Kanye West Perform "Ni**as In Paris" SEVEN TIMES in Detroit [VIDEO]

Watch The Throne's "Ni**as In Paris" has undoubtedly proven itself to be the hottest track of the year.  I don't know one person who doesn't get amped up as soon as he/she hears "Ball so hard mothaf**kas wanna fine me."

I've heard that Jay-Z and Kanye West have performed the anthem usually 3 times in a row during their shows, but they pulled out all the stops during their Detroit show and performed it 7 TIMES!!! It seems like the crowd loved every moment of it.  Watch the 6th and 7th performances below, and let me know what you think about "Ni**as In Paris." Has it been overdone?
