Jay-z covers GQ

So will the God MC be changing diapers?

Drake On The Cover Of Complex

“Everybody wants to poke and jab at Drake because they don’t feel like he will throw back,” says Chubbs, who met Drake nearly four years ago. “But nobody around here is going to let something happen to him at any time, especially me. I’m not ever going to let nothing happen to him. If it’s going to happen it’s going to happen to me first.”

DJ Clark Kent Recalls Introducing Jay-Z & The Notorious B.I.G., Recording “Brooklyn’s Finest”

“B.I.G. wanted the beat, but I said it was Jay’s. He was like, ‘Nah Clark, I want that record, that beat is for me! You give everything to this nigga!’ That was his favorite words. But I’m like, ‘He’s my artist. What do you want me to do? You’re not my artist, you’re Puff’s artist.”

Knowing that Big was in the lobby of the studio, Kent went and got him and introduced the two, putting them to work on what would become “Brooklyn’s Finest.

“Jay goes in the booth and does all of his verses differently. Some new, some different, but he left the spaces. Imagine him going in there going, ‘This is where I’m going to stop, and this is where I’ll pick it up.’ And B.I.G. is there while he’s doing this. And he comes out of the booth and goes to B.I.G., ‘Are you ready?’ And B.I.G.’s like, ‘What? No, I’m not ready. I need to take that home.’”
