Supposedly released next week! ;o

Didn't expect it so soon.

 

Not sure which 'GOOD Friday' tracks will appear on it, if any. I'm assuming 'That's My Bitch' (feat. Elly Jackson) will be included though.

I think that is the cover for the first single from the album. Think I read somewhere it is being released/premiered tomorrow...no idea what 'H.A.M.' stands for!

Looks like it was just a rumour about the album being released this week. I guess it's coming soon though.

that cover is amazing. you all don't GET it sometimes.

Really excited for this along with Eminem, Kanye & Jay-Z are the two best rappers of our generation.

Jay-Z and Kanye West's joint project is nearly complete.

 

The rappers have been working on their collaboration LP Watch The Throne over the last year.

 

Producer Guru has revealed that most of the recording is complete and just needs finishing touches become it can be released.

 

"Right now, I'm really trying to get Jay and Kanye to hurry up and finish this Watch The Throne album because the world needs to hear it," Guru told Vibe.

 

"It just needs little tweaks and things like that, but the core of the album is finished. Kanye takes what contributing producers do and adds onto it and I think that's his genius."

 

The first single to be taken from the album is titled 'H.A.M.' and was released back in January.

 

"I think the most unexpected part is kind of out the way with 'H.A.M.' - that was probably the last kind of track I was expecting to hear from Jay and Kanye," explained fellow rapper Talib Kweli. "But they definitely have some tricks up their sleeves."

 

"And they have some types of songs that you would think they might have. They really did a good job at covering all aspects, from the songs I've heard."

 

It was recently reported that Jay-Z is to collaborate with wife Beyoncé on Dr. Dre's comeback album, while Kanye West is remixing tracks from his My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy LP.

 

I NEED THIS.

Kanye said he's releasing a new album in the summer, but I don't know if he was talking about this album or not.

 

It will definitely be out in the next 9 months though, unless they cancel it, or pull a Detox. :lol:

In an interview with Delta Sky magazine, Jay-Z explains the creative delays between himself and Kanye, and why people think he's in some secret society.

 

Kanye West and Jay-Z announced back in January that they would release their collaborative Watch The Throne album within the month. Over four months later, the duo is still rumored to be putting the finishing touches on the project. In a recent interview with Delta Sky magazine, Jay gave a brief explanation for some of the delays.

 

“Before success, there weren’t interviews or photo shoots,” Jay recounted. “Now it’s a big thing to get in the studio. It’s like a process just to get there. And once I'm there, I have to dial into an emotion.”

 

Jay added that at times, it’s been hard for Kanye West to finish, saying that his protégé-turned-peer is “in an extraordinarily creative place,” which is making it difficult for him to focus.

 

When Watch The Throne finally does land on shelves, Jay-Z and Kanye detractors may begin another round of Illuminati rumors. But Jay dismissed such accusations, and he had his own line of reasoning for why people think he may be in some mythical secret society.

 

“I just think people can’t handle when somebody is successful,” Jay explained. “Something has gotta be wrong; you gotta be down with some higher power. And I guess when someone else is successful; it makes you feel like maybe you’re a failure. So it can't be you, it has to be some other force.”

 

JUST HURRY THE HELL UP PLEASE.

Yeah. I'm quite excited to hear these songs! :D

 

Although, to be fair, Dr. Dre has taken like 8 years (and counting)to make his upcoming album, so this doesn't seem that bad! :lol:

The next potential single is "Lift Off", featuring Beyoncé and Bruno Mars. Hopefully it'll be amazing! :D
