Jay-Z And Beyonce Dance To Her Unreleased Music
Jay-Z has been all about "new rules," but even Hov finds comfort in going back to tried-and-true methods. On Tuesday (July 9), Jigga dropped his Magna Carta ... Holy Grail at retail, hoisted an RIAA-certified platinum plaque (Beyonce congratulated him on her official website) and visited his old friend Angie Martinez, touching on a wide range of topics at the New York radio personality's Hot 97 .
Hov talked about his new album of, course, but he also addressed Monday's Twitter spree, daughter Blue Ivy and wifey Beyoncé (and her wealth of unreleased material).
"Right now, Bey has 100,000 amazing songs, just playing 'em," Jay revealed of the singer's much-anticipated album. To which an astonished Martinez asked, "And what do you guys do, just listen to it in the speaker for yourself?" Jay laughed saying, "Yeah, dance to it in our socks!"
While Jay does touch on his fears of fatherhood on MCHG's "Jay Z Blue," he told Martinez that he'd like to have more kids. "Absolutely, God willing," he said, cracking a joke about the number of children he'd like to have and his new role as a sports agent : "Get this little basketball team going. ... It's all part of the elaborate plan."
The rapper and business mogul was charming throughout the interview. He shot down the notion that he and Bey would ever do a Best of Both Worlds-style duet album and praised his pal Kanye West for his work on Yeezus. "I love it," he said of West's experimental LP. "It's polarizing because it's art. That's what art is; it forces you to have an opinion."
