We reported recently that Nas went on air with Hot 97 and voiced his willingness to possibly put the past behind and record with his former wax rival Jay-Z. Now Jay-Z has addressed the opportunity- but not exactly with open arms according to MTV.
Jay-Z told MTV “I don’t know,” he said of the possible pairing. “It didn’t happen before there was beef. What we went through was something musical. I don’t wish any ill will; I wish the guy the best of luck. But there wasn’t collaborations before anything happened, so why would it happen after? Right?”
On the flipside, it seems as if Nas’ openness to the concept has closed slightly.
“I mean, at this point people would like to see a lot of things,” Nas said. “Let’s let that be what it is. I can’t really bring nothing good to that conversation. I’m happy. I hope everybody else is happy. I’ve got too many other things I’ve got to do right now. That conversation is what happens on every street corner all day long. So God bless everybody.”

So who knows what will come of it, especially with all the responsibilities that lie in Hov’s lap. Will the two ever have time to link up? We’ll see.
