Kanye & Jay-Z “Watch The Throne” To Be Released As Full LP
Posted on 26 October, 2010 | 6 Comments
Kanye revealed to MTV during the Q&A session that what started out as an EP will now be a whole project.
“We putting out a whole album now,” he told MTV News’ Sway Calloway. “We had done five [songs] so far, but then a few of them kind of were out there, and I put them on my album. Sorry, Jay. But we got some more, and we’re going to the South of France at the end of the month to just record new ideas. But we’ll probably be done with the album in a day.”
Back in August, West announced the project via Twitter, and since then, the pair have appeared on G.O.O.D. Friday numbers like “So Appalled,” “Monster” and the “Power” remix. Most assumed that material — at least “So Appalled” and “Monster” — would appear on their joint project. But an early track list for My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy had those songs on West’s upcoming album instead.
During ‘Ye’s interview following the premiere of his short film “Runaway,” he confirmed that the records would be on his solo set.
Watch the Throne would mark Jay-Z’s third collaborative effort, following his mash-up collection with Linkin Park and his Best of Both Worlds project with R. Kelly. In regard to Kelly, West joked about Jay-Z’s penchant for a certain type of collaborator when asked how he persuaded the Brooklyn lyricist to release the joint album.

[...] Apart from his teamwork, the 23 year old beatsmith has been working closely with Kanye West and newest recruit Pusha T, earning credits for supplying heat to Yeezy’s holiday hit, Christmas In Harlem, and even more recent Pusha Thornton’s single My God.
