Watch the Throne mini documentary

[Tebo]

Jay-Z reminisces about Kanye's growth from a little-known producer to a superstar.

As Jay-Z and Kanye West ready their highly-anticipated collaborative album Watch The Throne, the duo has released a mini-documentary featuring interviews and behind-the-scenes footage of their creative process.

In the documentary, Jay-Z looked back at Kanye's development over the past decade.

"Kanye, I've seen him, he's really like a brother to me," says Hov. "I've seen him from the beginning to where he is now and to see him as a producer and how he's grown as a producer and an artist, for me, on another level, it's enjoyable. I'm watching the guy I pretty much mentored become his own guy with his own opinion, it's fantastic."

The documentary also shows a young Kanye West predicting his future success in 2002, telling Rap fans to get ready for his takeover. "My album, y'all gonna see, I'm gonna take it to the next level," he warned.

I am so not sure what you are saying.


But I'm saying I've seen a few joints where they show Jay working and coming up with a verse and he'll like think of the song go into the booth lay it down and then he'll listen then go back in and tighten it up and like ½ the stuff he says first time around is changed slightly or replaced.

They changed the beat too so who knows. But I seen his switch it up more than once. like the working verses they show are just that him thinking and rewriting the verses in his head and changing his flow up to match the beat in places.
