It seems the retired Jay-Z is still making albums, becoming the hip hop equivalent of a Florida pensioner still working at the local diner. Although with his last album American Gangster being his strongest in years it’s easy to see the logic and hard to complain. When you add Timbaland, the somewhat oily it appears mastermind behind a massive array of pop, R & B & hip hop hits to the mix talk of another album becomes all the more intriguing. Of the album Timbaland states;

“He wants me to do the whole thing this time around,” Timbaland told MTV. “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].”

The duo previously worked on the smash Big Pimpin together so the chemistry and track record is there. If it happens look for mid 90s sales figures on a chart near you.
