I want to work with Jay-Z.

There's Jay-Z, who morphs a certain street hustler's cool and indifference into CEO extravagance. But for all his prominence, Jay-Z hasn't written a lot of crossover hits.

I always felt that Jay Z, if he had a different upbringing, could be on Wall Street or in politics. If you really listen to Jay Z talk, he's kind of the smartest guy in the room.

I respect Jay-Z. I like him.

I'm a fan of Jay-Z, I'mma always be a fan of Jay-Z.

I would definitely love to work with somebody like Jay Z or Rihanna.

Jay Z and President Bush have a lot in common, that same brash confidence.

I am the biggest Kanye and Jay Z fan.

Remember when Jay-Z wore a Che Guevara T-shirt? Nobody knew who Che was. Then Jay-Z wears it, and it's everywhere.

Jay-Z ain't a manager; he owns a management company. He been through this; he been through the game for a long time, so he knows tactics in taking artists in certain directions we need to go in.
