Jay-Z on his marriage:

Jay-Z talks about working on the new album and producer’s ego’s (Timbaland). He says its not about the producer its about the best product and thats his concern not peoples personal feelings.

Jay-Z speaking about the Blueprint 3:
He says that Timbaland was premature in telling people he would be producing his whole album.
Jay-Z on the Blueprint and Timbaland

I don’t know about y’all but Timbaland really makes me sick. He acts cocky but tries to act like he’s not cocky. Did you see him on 106 and Park the other day wearing them tight ass hip hugger boot cut jeans. He hated on people that come on the show and said they talk about money but followed it up with saying “I got money, I got real money.” Then he started saying he had video games and ring tone partnerships etc. but he don’t talk about it cause he don’t brag.
I digress…..anyway he speaks about Jay’s album to MTV:
“He wants me to do the whole thing this time around,” yeah right like Pharrell won’t appear on the album. Jay says that to all the producers big booty Timbo. “I’mma make it a classic too. You better believe it. It’ll be a monster! I always say this: You get a first single from me, I’mma get you up to gold. And it’s hard to get you up to gold in this day [and age].” Jay gets himself to gold big booty Timbo. Didn’t Timbaland say the same thing about American Gangsta and he didn’t make the album. He acted like the records he produced were straight bangers, he said he did the single and turns out, he didn’t even make the final cut!
