 hip hop music videos & newsJay-Z on the cover! Hov among 39 other celebrities grace the cover of Time Out New York’s 40thAnniversary collector’s issue. “They’ve ruled the city- and told us why this city rules” Read a lil’ snippet of the interview where he talks about Nas, working with Kanye on BP3, and of course the B questions…after the jump!You’re the only rapper on this list. We were considering Nas but have this 13-year rule: People on this list had to have had an impact in the last 13 years. And Illmatic was 1994. Should we have included him?Jay-Z: Ah, wow! [Laughs] That’s a tough question. [Pauses] Yeah, only because of the impact of that album, when it’s considered one of the best albums ever created, you have to document that. How about Kanye? Has he earned it yet?
Jay-Z: He’s from Chicago, but he’s close. I don’t know if he’s had that one album that’s moved the entire culture, but he’s hit it three times in a row. He’ll be on every list one day. Are you guys really teaming up for Blueprint 3?
Jay-Z: Yeah, actually. We’re partners right now. Starsky and Hutch right now. And B? What was your first meeting with your wife like?Jay-Z: I can’t answer that question. [Laughs] Come on now. Seriously? You guys wrote a song about being in love.
Jay-Z: I’m actually pretty open, especially in the music. And in conversation, when I get to know people. But there’s one side of my life I tend to keep quiet. You have to have some time of sanity. You can’t live with everything out there. You have to have sanctuary.
