Jay Z and the Blue Print part 3


Some people simply don't know when to quit (The word Prime is not in their vocabulary). And then there's people who disappear reluctantly into cult obscurity.
Few are the ones that actually know when to quit (while you're ON TOP for the rest of you who don't know). And some people just try to quit, telling themselves that this is, indeed, going to be the last time. For Sure. They PROOOOMISE.
Jay Z my friends belongs to the last category. The husband, record executive, and at some point, legendary rapper, swore he was quiting "the game" when The Black Album (2003) was released.
Well it's been about 5 years and instead of growing admiration and gracefully assuming his role behind the scenes, we have seen the demise of a legend.
And there is much more to come apparently!.
According to Billboard.com Jay Z confirmed rumours that he is recording an 11th (4th post retirement)and final album that will be released via Def Jam Called The Blueprint 3.
Seriously Jay, for the sake of Hip-Hop, just stop recording, I mean you discovered Rhianna for god's sake.
There is absolutely no street cred in discovering the Umbrella-ella-ella girl man.
