According to PageSix, Jay Z and Kanye West’s friendship is nothing but a sham. This all came to light after Yeezy made a few off color comments at a Wednesday (October 19) show in Seattle that seemed to point to Jay Z not being there for him after his wife, Kim Kardashian-West was robbed in Paris.
“There will never be a Watch the Throne 2,” Yeezy said in the rant where he also blasted the TIDAL/Apple streaming wars.

It seems Mr. Carter isn’t sweating his relationship with Kanye. A music insider reportedly said, “Jay can’t stand him. He looks at him as this crazy, eccentric motherfucker he can tolerate in small doses. Kanye is a nut job. Everyone knows that.”
In regards to their collaborative Watch the Throne album and subsequent tour in 2011, the source added that for Jigga, it was all about the money.
“Jay was like, ‘I’m gonna knock this out,'” the insider said. “‘We’re going to do a tour to bring in millions of dollars. I can tolerate that.’ ”
Although one person supposedly close to West said he and Jay were “brothers,” the celebrity news site’s contact stayed steadfast. “That’s just perception,” the source said. “The reality is that Jay doesn’t want that much to do with him. He likes his own space and is private. They’re very much not the same person. Jay’s immediate circle is very insular, and Kanye is just a guy who always wants something in the spotlight.”
Reps for either West or Jay Z did not comment.
NOT SURPRISED!!!! REMEMBER, IT WAS DAME WHO FOUND INTEREST IN KANYE, NOT JAY!!!! KANYE IS ONLY A MUSICAL ASSET TO JAY!!!! AS YEARS GO BY, DAME SEEMS MORE AND MORE LIKE THE FALL GUY FOR THE ROC A FELLA SPLIT!!!!
People who already bring this up act like Jay-Z goes around talking about how he plucked Kanye from obscurity and if it wasn’t for him, he’d have no career. Actually, it’s been the opposite as Jay-Z never brings it up, like at all. He’s worked with dude on music after having him for a producer 15 years ago. It’s not Jay-Z’s fault that Kanye is a sensitive bitch who believes that means you’re bff’s because of that. But he is caught up in that Kardashian world, so who knows if dude even knows what’s going on anymore.
hahahaha nobody likes kanye west
Sounds like a Roc-A-Fella trait…..they only loyal to the money, ask Beans
Its like the student trying to test the teacher
You have to be friends first for it to be a sham. Some fools confusing working together and getting money with being friends. Those lyrics on “Big Brother” made that apparent 10 years ago, and Kanye has only gotten worse since then as they hits have dried up.
Fuck around with kardashians your done one way or the other. Ask Lamar. Kim wants to be Beyoncé so bad she diesel whatever but she doesn’t understand Beyoncé is a respected and talented artist she’s just a pornstar who goes nude from time to time just to stay relevant.
It’s just a shame if they fall apart since they have such a chemistry and they made a lasting impact on hip hop community.
Jay was never friend wirh Kanye..everything was strictly business from day1. Whenever otheother news publications mentioned jay z as Kanyes “BEST FRIEND” what they really meant to say was “business partners” only.
When will the fanslearnthe differencedifference between business associate who doesn’t give a damn about your well-being from an actual friend who will bend their backs over for their crew and holdit down when needed.
it wouldnt surprise me if this was true. Jay-z has always been about the money and Kanye clearly is an incredible producer so Jay-Z probably used his skills. Jay-Z is from Marcy projects whereas Kanye grew up middle-class. Jay-Z plays it low key and humble when it comes to the media and Kanye lets it all hang out. But at the end, Jay-Z’s discography would be less impressive without Kanye’s contributions esp the Blueprint tracks

hiphopdx has skipped album sales this week.. is it coz game flopped??
Game flopped!!! He just sold 21,000 after all that “riffing and beefing about a bunch of BS!!!”
21,000 as a independent artist is amazing. That’s no where near a flop.
That album went double ply , perfect to wipe asz with.
Exactly. 21K is Young Thong numbers. Lmfao! Independent or not. *Street Fighter voice* YOU LOSE!
Wait, wasn’t it ‘page six’ who supposedly came up with this “news”?
he ain’t independent… he is signed.. if y watch his breakfast club was interview he said he gets an advance 4 an album n doesn’t see much with sales.. meaning some1 cuts him a cheque
independent o not 21k is a flop!! for an artist like game especially.. even streaming can’t help him..Dame homie..
Even though i don’t even like Kanye nowadays i gotta admit he is a true mutil talented artist. People express their emotions differently, that’s just how Kanye is, and we have accepted him to be that way, that’s the way i like Kanye to be Kanye. But Jay-Z, he’s nothing more than a businessman who gets carried by production every now and then. Would anyone even listen to Jay’s albums if he never had Just Blaze, Premier, Kanye, B!nk and more? fact is Jay-Z is the most overrated rapper of all time who has built a career off self praise only. I’m sure these two are way closer than this and they’ll figure shit out we can’t talk about their relationship if we don’t even know them but some of y’all in the comments are praising Jay-Z way too much.
*multi
Kanye doesn’t write, he doesn’t produce anymore, he doesn’t sing, he doesn’t act, he can’t dance.
Where are the talents????
“Anymore” ! he can still do it but the fame and marrying a kardashian have gotten over his head.
First. Jay Z is the Micheal Jordan of hiphop. Your favorite rapper has been impacted by Jay and his career. You can think the way you do but that doesn’t make it a fact. You sound more like someone who is unhappy with your own life. That statement you made fits a lot of current rappers today but it doesn’t fit Jay at all. The real question is this. Who do you like and who do you listen too daily? That would explain a lot more about yourself and your judgement.
Muthafuckaz is both wack as fuck, homie.
Desiigner sold 15k on a major label . MAJOR FLOP . Nobody mentioned that tho .
I always wondered how these two even get along. Kanye seems hyper annoying to be around.
I don’t think anybody fucks with Ye unless it’s to their benefit
This is a stupid ass story. People will continue posting stories like this as long as people continue to believe it. Pg.6 being a reliable source? Gtfoh!
Emory Jones is Home. Everybody know he hates Ye! He even Drop’s Sub IG quote’s about him.
Are we supposed to be surprised? It seems that EVERYONE dislike Kanye on a personal level. And he always sounds like an arrogant prick in EVERY SINGLE ONE of his rants.
I mean who really cares Jay n Bey didn’t even gon to his wedding! Hahahahahahaha!
What is the point of this article?
To read it.

Lol…Yea, Kanye *You just made the list!*
