According to reports, Jay and Ye moved to another luxury Manhattan spot.
Kanye West and Jay-Z have moved on from their studio at the Mercer Hotel
to the Tribeca Grand Hotel to record their upcoming album, “Watch the Throne.” The duo was laying down tracks Wednesday night until 7 a.m. Thursday in a studio that had been specially set up in the hotel. The artists went downstairs for a short break with Universal honcho Barry Weiss, Kid Cudi and staff from the label. “They were laying down tons of tracks,” a witness said. “It was intense — no Beyoncé and no booze.” (New York Post)
Jay recently revealed his intent to get West more focused on completing the long-awaited LP.
“Ye is just in an extraordinarily creative place–so much so I need to get him to focus so we can finish this,” Jay says. “But music is his refugee right now.” (Sky)
Earlier this week, producer Bangladesh revealed his involvementon their album.
“I was requested to come out there and just give a little insight on the album, give them a beat or two and add and create with ‘Ye, which was a big honor,” he said. “I been a fan of ‘Ye since the first song he ever dropped…It’s never a guarantee until that time comes, but the track I left [Kanye] with, he was very satisfied with…He really expressed that he loved the beat and he’s ready to buy it. That’s a good sign, but you never know at the end of the day. I don’t really talk about stuff until it’s signed, sealed and delivered.” (MTV)
While details are still emerging, pop stars Beyonce and Bruno Mars will likely appear on the project.
If you thought “H.A.M” sucked and thought that Watch The Throne thing wasn’t happening anymore, think again. Kanye West and Jay-Z
