I didn't know that. I always thought he was laying down the tracks. Thanks for the clarification.

**Hof**

his producers are widely ranged

the usual suspects are pharrell, timbo, jus blaze, swizz, and kanye

**Young Ef**

you forgot 9th wonder he gets busy for jay sometimes too he also has blessed primo beats as well as heavy D

that gunz and roses is fire

**Hof**

i said usual suspects...9th wonder has like one beat in jay-z's entire discography

**Justin**

Timbaland does the same shit. Just because he is slated to "produce" the entire album does not mean that he is going to personally create every track that Jay laces some vocals on.

I'm sure that Danja will work on the album and I wouldn't be surprised if Timbaland does some work with Just Blaze and Kanye West.

danja and him had a falling out

yeah, back when hip hop was just hip hop..now hip hop has beats that could could be considered/sample techno songs, pop, rnb, country songs etc. hip hop is different now.

Jay-Z To Work With Kanye West, Timbaland On Next Album

Jay-Z is set to work with Kanye West as well as Timbaland on sessions for his new album.

It had been reported to be produced solely by Timbaland, but Jay-Z has revealed that sessions are more of a musical competition between his collaborators.

Speaking to Rolling Stone, Jay-Z said: "I'm a person that works off music. If Timbaland makes 10 great tracks then he produces the album, if Kanye West makes 10 great tracks then he produces the album; if he makes three, I'll take three. I let the music dictate the direction.

"You know I love Timbaland, he is like a brother to me, but until the music is done it's premature."
