We told you earlier that there had been a rumored riff between Kanye West and Jay-Z over production costs associated with their Watch The Throne tour, but Jay-Z has spoken out to deny the rumors.
Yesterday, the rapper made a surprise stop at the Hot 97 studios where he chatted with Angie Martinez about the rumored riff. He told her,
"I kinda want to spend a gazillion dollars. They got it backwards, but it's all good. I know that we're doing something right now. When I woke up to all that, I was like, 'Oh yeah, we must be really hot right now.' "
He continued,
"Yes, we get on each other's nerves, but that's part of pushing each other. We push each other. The people who have a problem with Kanye or myself are the people that are complacent in life. People don't like to be pushed. It's, like, annoying. It's a thing when people are pushing you to be greater, and we push each other to be greater. So of course there are times when we're in the studio, we're yelling, but that's about it."
And as far as the rumor that he slapped Kanye, he said,
"I would never disrespect that man. I have so much respect for him. Put my hands on him?" Jay questioned rhetorically. "And if I did, it would be like the backyard, like brothers, and you would never hear about it."
See....that's how grown men handle their situations. Not on diss tracks.
