One Of The Monsters Of Hip Hop Considers Justin A Great

Posted July 20, 2009, at 9:27 am

In a recent interview, Jay-Z laments on his forthcoming album, The Blueprint 3, it’s process and his climb to the top of the hip hop genre. During the interview, he comments on the great artists of our time, including JT among the modern versions of artists such as Marvin Gaye and Frank Sinatra.

Now all of Jay-Z’s ventures are coming into alignment. He will release “The Blueprint 3″ September 11, eight years to the day from the debut of the original “Blueprint.”

“This being the end of the trilogy, I wanted to bring it full circle,” he says. “The first ‘Blueprint’ was based on soul samples and more of a place where I came from and the records I listened to growing up with my mom and pop. This ‘Blueprint,’ I liken it to a new classic, simply because we — Usher, Justin Timberlake, Beyonce, myself — are becoming the people that we looked up to musically growing up, like Marvin Gaye and Frank Sinatra.”

Thanks Maxie for the heads up!

That’s pretty awesome, since Jay-Z is like one of the greatest rappers ever.

Anywho I heard that JT is going to be working with Drake(my absolute favorite rapper…*daydreams of drake begin*)on his debut.

But before I get my hopes up, has anyone esle heard about this?
