Jay-Z, Kanye West Single To Drop January 11

    Late in the summer as Kanye’s G.O.O.D. Fridays were in full swing, the Chicago emcee/producer announced that he and Jay-Z would release a 5 song EP together. A couple months later the project has blossomed into a full length album, one which the duo was trying to complete in December.

    While Kanye said on New Years Eve that Watch The Throne would land in a week (which would be tomorrow), there is no release date set for the album. Fakeshoredrive reports that the first single may be here by tomorrow. “H.A.M.” is reportedly set for January 11, but may leak before the weeks end.

    FSD reported yesterday that sources close to Kanye and Def Jam that the album from the former Roc-A-Fella members will drop March 1. In late September Kanye confirmed Pete Rock, Q-Tip and potentially Madlib production for the album.

    (January 7)

    UPDATE: Kanye confirmed via Twitter that his first single with Jay-Z will drop 1-11. He also provided the artwork for “H.A.M.” Any guesses as to what it stands for?

    1. Kanye needs to go shit down somewea.Seem like after graduation hes been suckin with every album..he should let jcole write for him..

      1. word my friend.
        he on some weird ass shit at the moment, that monster vid freaked me out man.

        but i hear what your saying about j cole. that nigga is ILL. i seriously hope he blows up

      2. my g what do you get out of posting under my name grow the fuck up

        how old is you lame ass niggaz on this site???

        go back to your chatroom, fckin lames….

      4. you guys seriuosly back the fuck up. it aint fucking cool to be jacking my ID, no matter how homosexual it may be. keep it up and imma have to take action homie

    2. I’m sorry, I am a clown ass idiot. I have jumped on the Jcole like every other bandwagoner. I also jerk off to Joe Budden and Lupe Fiasco .

      Anyone who said the Monster vid freaked them out should go back to being 3 years old. It really wasn’t anything compared to the old eminem videos or a haunted house.

      And Kanye still had the album of the year.

      1. nigga why dont you just shut the fuck up. what qualifies you say what should and shouldn’t freak people out?
        so what if it was nothing compared to the old em videos? that doesnt mean it wasnt freaky, it just means it was less freaky.

        all of a sudden we got dropout niggas lecturing people on what they should consider ok. the dude below what just voicing his opinion, but i wouldn’t expect your ghetto ass to understand that

      2. am the real mcoast…and just so you know am a female so i aint got no dick to jerk off..been riding on jcole since mycollege years..so yes this was for me

        Shout out to the bootleggers who supply my shit the fans online trying to find my shit….jcole

        to you from jcole.

        and to then-ggas listening but wont buy my sh-t and catch me in the street wanna ride my d-ck y’all n-ggas is the worst, see me like“J. Cole homie, can you sign my burnt CD”

      1. to say Jay-z and Kanye are wack is like saying picasso can’t paint. your just stupid and trying to get a stir , flame bait dummy.

      2. that ain’t the truth at all.
        thats jack shit garbage.
        both of these dudes are trash.
        music sucks, career sucks, can’t even sell 1 mil anymore more like 10K at best.
        junk
        satanic junk

      3. what a dumb ass stupid comparison.

        so you are saying faking label numbers, acting like a circus clown to perform for people 20 years younger than you, riding paparazzi ass acting like your not a part of it, manipulating the media yet acting like you are like all rebellious against society or something, putting out shit music, getting shit fans, getting overplayed on shitty tv stations, making stupid comments, drinking goat’s blood or whatever stupid shit these satantic morons do, sucking up to elitists and being puppets for them, putting out stupid vidoes, acting like egocentrical assholes in an industry that is going so far down the toilet its not even funny, etc.

        that’s picasso though right?
        stupid dumb ass comparison.

    3. A big middle finger to ALL Y’ALL who said this ish wouldn’t see the light of day. All you “execs” were dead wrong!

    4. u know why i dont really look forward to this
      i m pretty sure they will put all the leaked songs or remix on it
      power remix…
      10 or 11 track album with 5 leaked songs

    5. as usual we have the usual retards posting to get a reacction, like jay said ” your not feeling me? fine it costs you nothing, pay me no mind” If you hate hov and ye so much simply dont post on stories relating to them, your ignorance gives other intelligent black people a bad name with all your assinine rants

    6. This single was purposely released on 1/11/11 which is illuminati numerology…Not surprised that the album is “coincidentally” due 3/1/11, which again is obvious numerology. 3 x 11 = 33, the highest degree in freemasonry. Also noticing more illuminati numerology in movies, especially the ones that have to do with aliens. ‘Skyline’ came out 11/12/10. Add it up – 33 yet again. (Why the blue lights in the movie? Project Bluebeam?) ‘Battle: Los Angeles’ is an upcoming alien movie about an invasion in Los Angeles. The release date was “randomly” chosen for 3/11/11 (why the hell not). Is it just hollywood trying to make money or is some elite planning on staging an event in the future and using movies to dumb down people? (Or both)

      1. there are dozen of orders of freemasonery with different rules and ranks. And FYI the most common highest rank is 36. So ur whole theory is a failure.
        Bogus.

      2. Shit, guess what?

        1+1+1+1+1 = 5

        Kanye = 5 lettes

        Jay-Z = 5 letters (inc. hyphen)

        Kanye has released 5 albums so far (Watch the Throne (WtT) will be his sixth)

        Jay-Z has released 11 albums, WtT will be his twelth.

        6 + 12 = 18

        Jay-Z started Roc-a-Fella when he was 18

        ALL THESE NUMBERS INDICATE THE MARK OF THE DEVIL 666 ILLUMINATI COMING TO EAT YOUR BABIES

      3. Are you shittin’ me dude? I’m so sick of this whole Illuminati bullshit. Numbers add up, duh. Grow the fuck up and let music be music. If one day the whole New World Order shit actually eventuates…. I’ll buy you a coke. Dick.

      4. lmaoo realtalk thats exactly what all this illuminati bs is all about just conspiracy theories that dont add up….although if there is such a thing i believe jay-z and only jay-z is part of that group

    7. That’ll be the next song to have the instrumental raped by every signed/unsigned rapper and put on display by this site, allhiphop.com, worldstarhiphop.com and any other “hiphop” site. So we get overdosed with news articles about Jay/Kanye and the people using the beat as well for the next two months.

    8. Fuck these illuminati niggaz. They rapping about selling their soul to satan and money. These niggaz are why hip hop is dead. Besides, everyone is waiting for Gucci Mane’s new album to drop so the Lord Gucci Mane will save Hip Hop from all her sins. Repend and bow down to the Lord Gucci Mane.

      It’s Gucci Time!

      1. AND YOUR A FUCKING MORON…Gucci maine is bout to go to jail and the dude…along with every one else in 1017 Dicksquad can’t rap…they are the reason hip hop is dead you fuck

    9. i cant wait for this shit to drop its going to be the best album of 2011. and you guys are idiots they do this on purpose so theres buzz around all the satan shit. its a gimmick not true at all but jayz is the greatest of all time anyways

    10. u haterz betta b ready 4 sum heat from da masterz of da rap game. u no ur gonna bump it like there’z no 2morrow. bring it jay! bring it kanye! watch da throne niggaz!

      ROC NATION/GOOD MUZIK BITCH!

    11. The eye on the pyramid doesn’t blink
      Fuck Jay-Z he was a member of nsync
      Fucked Kanye West during the backstreet
      Mind fucked with all the cum on your sheets
      They said sucking Nas’s cock was like blunts
      They both are ass fuckers they are cunts
      Belong to a secret society of faggots
      Fuck their mind with a jedi trick you maggot
      Vinnie Paz is the only rapper with a soul
      All you faggot niggaz only rap about hoes
      That ain’t hip hop you fucking homo
      Rap is about lyrics so fuck off fo’sho
      Fake ass sell out who’s cryin’ like a bitch
      He sucks Illuminati cock, a fuckin snitch
      Listen to real hip hop like JMT and Lowkey
      Because the words the fuckin spit are holy

      1. that was terrible.. I honestly was embarrassed while reading it.. clowns like you are whats wrong with rap/hip hop

    12. everything they’ve ever done together has been fire.. kanye and jay-z will crush it with this release.. if it’s released.. and they will tour and make so much money.. can u imagine that show? sprinkle in g.o.o.d. artists with roc nation.. that arena is gonna be off the chain.. get your money stashed away for this tour.. Watch the Throne will be THE show to catch

    13. They better have Premo and Pete Rock beats on this project or real heads are not gonna fuck with it. Real talk, ‘The Joy” was better than anything on ‘Ye’s album and he’s fuckin retarded for not lacing that bangin’ “JJ Beat” that Preme threw his ungrateful ass.

      1. I can not trust a comment that saids that one song (which was good) was better than Dark Fanatasy (RZA and No ID), Monster, Hell of a Life and Power….let along So Appalled.

        Sorry. I also hate when folks talk bout “real heads” on some arrogant shit even more so than Kanye with that.

    14. we can’t stop the illuminati or the world from ending so #fuckit and keep doing what you do and go in for life before its over real talk this album will be sick but who cares we all know these niggas is illuminati but we cant stop em besides theres more important shit in the world like 100,000 fish and 5,000 birds dying in arkansas they try and distract you with all these media bullshit like the #illuminati but shit just backtrackting you from what they really doing also peep the underground denver bunkers they made under the airport out there smh pay attention motherfuckers the end is near

    15. H.A.M= Hell’s Available Mercenaries. Illuminati shit, right? lame ass fools. Yall niggas give these guys waaaay too much credit they dont deserve. Kanye and Jay are just rappers n entrepreneurs! Nothing more. Did Hov even graduate high school? Kanye dropped outta college coz homie was gettin D’s in all classes. Lol
      You think The Illuminati, which boasts of the world’s best and brightest minds i.e. Kings, presidents, Multinational C.E.Os, Ivy league professors you think they would mess with these 2 fools? Get ya mind right you simple minded idiots.

      1. Just because they didn’t do good in school doesn’t mean they dont make hot ass music… WTF does one thing have to do with another anyway? But for some under achieving students, they are certainly doing well for themselves. They have more money than most people with PHDs do. So now what?
        Did you ever stop to think they maybe they are cashing in on the illuminati rumors simply because it’s sucking people in? You do what you gotta do for promotion.
        Half of these punk ass rappers do not even live the life they portray on the track, but again… if that shit sells, you do what you gotta do.

      2. To be a genius you have to be able to comprehend well, work hard, be dilligent and shit like that…school in my opinion tell you what you already know. Ye nor Jay have seen a Parabola since they quit school

    16. ppl actin like its gonn be the hit without even listened to it. thats what the fuck i call brainwash.just because its 2 of the TOP mcs it doesnt mean that its gonn be the shit already

    17. MILLIONAIRE CEO RAPPERS COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

      FUCKING NOT

      REALHOUSEWIVES OF BEV HILLS SHIT

      1. They’re rich because they’re intelligent, creative, and progressive. You must be jealous; spending all of your time listening to rappers you can relate to. Underground shit that will always be just OK, nothing great.

    18. So tired of seeing Kanye West that I will stay as far away from this as possible. Fuckin dude is so overrated.

      1. How is he overrated when he sells millions of albums? Learn about g.o.o.d music. And you clicked the link to the article to hate on kanye?

    19. woah. . Regardless of what the reps are of Kanye and Jay-Z. . They still have potential to make good music. Kanye knows how to produce and excellent album, but as far as lyricism goes, Jay does all the mainstream thrash, and West got his own style, but will see what happens when the album drop. Its a good start for 2011 though. . . Really hype for the J cole album and lasers

    20. KANYE JUST DROPPED a classic album about a month ago..so he still in the same mindset..JAY IS responsible for an uncountable amount of classics..so yall figures is faulty..nigs still bettin against these dudes..WHERE THEY DO THAT AT?..the “haters” and i say that word loosely givin yall too much credit..yall really hopelessly lost dudes tryin to sound original..continue to count two of our most talented out the game and give credit where its not due(eminem wack ass)..that dude wouldnt know how to pick a beat if his life depended on it and his rhymes have no quotables..JAY AND KANYE BOTH GOT all the bars,all the phrases..all of the hits..fucouttahere and if anybody in the illuminati its EMINEM..this dude the highest sellin rapper but nobody say his no-hit havin ass is in the illuminati..where yall get yall brain cells from..

      1. cuz that nigga is wack..plain and simple..u tellin me “not afraid” is good as anything JAY OR KANYE HAS DONE THIS YR..OR ANYTHING ON THAT WACK-ASS ALBUM IS GOOD

      2. That shit wasn’t no classic! There were so many albums this year that blew Kanye’s shit out of the water.

      1. you are correct.
        it is people like you who help people and make people do well because you state the truth.keep up the good work you are doing good things for people by telling them how things really are.

    21. Jay-z isn’t that good lyrically anymore but Kanye stopped being good after Graduation! You guys constantly ride his dick so much!!!

      1. I know right.

        Let me ask all of you a question.
        Why do any of you dickride big fat cock?
        Why do any of you suck off the bullshit mainstream media feeds you, the shit the radio feeds you and the crap the MTV & VHI feeds you?

        Do you like big cock in your face?

      1. If by “fall off” you mean release a critically acclaimed, best-selling album, that has gotten near-perfect ratings from every hip hop site, music site, newspaper and magazine, across the world, then yes.

        God, you’re an idiot. How do you even get dressed in the morning?

      2. omg dude that is so fuckin stupid “near perfect ratings”
        dude what don’t you understand about fake marketing and fake advertising.
        these morons will tell you anything because they want you to buy the album, they want to make money.
        the ratings are so fucking fake its not even funny they amount to a pile of jack shit.

      3. these haters crack me up man, kanye and jay are awesome. i love reading the hate though, but i don’t think i’ll even bother explaining to them the obvious paranoia and bias they’re displaying.
        haters gon hate

      4. OMG dude how stupid are you.
        kanye & jay are the haters, get it through your head.
        they work with the media to manipulate the public they’re a bunch of morons.
        you’re an elistist hater not the folks so stop making stupid comments.

    22. Kanye’s BallLicking Dark NUT Fantasy was a bunch of shit, GARBAGE ass artists, who are fueled by dumb ass people who try to emulate them or pretend to be them in terms of money, fame, and dick ride them because there friends hop on that bandwagon dick from someone else.
      -If you wake up in the morning feeling like KANYE, JAY-Z, or P.Diddy…. just remember they ain’t eating bologny sandwiches –

      1. good post.

        and think about it all these dudes are eating is straight cock.
        puff kanye & jay right got millions of dollars right?
        Then how come they each weigh 130 lbs each with toothpick arms.
        all 3 of them look like scrawny pieces of crap.
        so great they got money though right?
        too bad they can’t use it to stay in shape my dick is bigger than their biceps.

    23. These are 3 freemason bastards.but ppl saying Kanye is garbage nobody cares about how you feel Kanye is creative and makes good ass music My beautiful dark twisted fantasy is far from Garbage..That is str8 bullshit

    24. Why do people act like Kanye is some type of musical genius?? He’s the most overrated rapper in the game right now, MBDTF had like 3 or 4 good songs with the rest being to many pop songs with singing! Graduation was his last good album, Kanye isn’t hip hop anymore he’s a self centered bitch!!!

      1. aye get off Ye dick lol did you get on the cpu to talk shit about somebody yu dont even know? I hope this ain’t L-Boogie the rapper from Milwaukee lol cuz yo shit straight Garb! I think me and like 12 other ppl heard of dat bullshit hahahahahahah

    25. Kanye MBDTW was def a banga you cant say that album was garbage. he is the last of a dieing breed in this game no matter how you feel about him as a person or his beliefs, he keeps it real and is still the epitome of hip hop where it lacks a conscious message. F FOLLOW ME @MALZMONEY

      1. No MBDTF is straight pop garbage bullshit, the most overrated album to come out this year!! You guys don’t know real hip hop, Sir Luscious Leftfoot, Distant Relatives, How I Got Over etc are way way better albums! Kanye is overrated!!!!

      2. this dude above me is a fuckin idiot…Ye’s album is the fuckin greatest shit to drop in awhile, production was fuckin ridiculous, you niggaz are fuckin dumbass bitches…yall sayin’ “overrated?” yall are fuckin dumb as hell gucci man garabage motherfuckas…get some ears and listen bitches

    26. Whether or not, you study hieroglyphs or Latin symbolism, symbols are apparent. Illuminati is nothing but a name that ends nowhere. you have to know what lies beyond the chamber to clearly comprehend what it is. And, if you do, then you are preparing, aware and understand what it takes to sustain, strive or be free. People talk about Illuminati, not knowing its realms, levels, understandings and principles. It cannot harm you unless you fear it and do nothing. You have to educate yourself and employ the education for self employment.

    27. lol…im readin these comments…overrated this…illuminati that…=/ the music ain’t killin hip-hop. its the listeners.

      “kanye album was garbage” tell that to every music critic, every award show, every website, to the sales, and more importantly his cash =P.

      most people think the album is great and can be considered a classic. the ratio is too great for your opinion to even matter lol.

    28. “walks in..takes a look around..see’s the same hatin’ ass lame ass nigz..decides to preach a lil'”…FUC U MEAN “DARK FANTASY” IS WACK..”POP” IS NOT EVEN A GENRE FIRST OF ALL..THE SHIT DONT EVEN MEAN SHIT..”MDTF” IS HIPHOP TO THE HIGHEST POWER..ITS INNOVATION AND SETS A PRECEDENT..WHAT I DONT GET IS WHEN MUHFUCKAS TRY TO GO AGAINST THE GRAIN AND THEN NAME TEN OTHER ALBUMS “THEY” THINK IS HOT BUT ARE FAR MORE INFERIOR THAN THE WORK THEY HATED ON IN THE FIRST PLACE…I FUCKIN LOVE OUTKAST BUT U TRYNA TELL ME “SIR LUCIOUS” IS ON THAT LEVEL OF THIS ALBUM..FUCOUTTAHERE..NOBODY BELIEVES U..THE PROBLEM WITH TODAYS HIPHOP LISTENER IS THEY HAVE NO SENSE OF WHAT GOOD MUSIC IS..FUCHAPPENED..ESPECIALLY REALLY YOUNG NIGZ..IT USED TO BE A TIME WHERE OLD HEADS WERE WRONG..LIKE ALL THE MUHFUCKAS WHO GREW UP IN THE 80’S TRYNA TELL US BIGGIE WAS WACK OR ANYBODY ELSE FROM THE 90’S THAT WAS CRACKIN..NOW THE OLD HEADS IS US(25-30) AND WE BEEN EXPOSED TO SO MUCH SHIT AND THE YOUNG NIGZ HAVE NO CLUE(FOR THE MOST PART)WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED..U GOT LIL DUMSMART NIGZ TALKIN ABT “WHO WANTS TO HEAR 8 MINUTE SONGS AND SHIT..SOUNDIN FUCKIN LUDICROUS..AND THEY DONT EVEN KNOW IT..A CLASSIC IS A CLASSIC..YOU KNOW IT WHEN U HEAR IT..MATTER OF FACT YOU HEAR IT EVERYWHERE..SHOULDNT NOBODY HAVE TO TELL U THAT SHIT…U SAY THIS KANYE ALBUM GOT ONLY FOUR TRACKS..YEH NOBODY BELIEVES U DUMMIE..WHAT?..THE FIRST FOUR TRACKS ALONE IS KILLIN WHOLE ALBUMS..DARK FANTASY,GORGEOUS,POWER,ALL OF THE LIGHTS..THAT AINT EVEN INCLUDING SO APPALLED..MONSTER..BLAME GAME.AND THE LIST GOES ON..U NIGZ NEED MUSIC SCHOOL…THE SAME NIGZ WILL TRY TO TELL U WITH A STRAIGHT FACE THAT “WHITE JESUS” IS HOT..WHEN NOBODY IN UR CITY OR MINE IS PLAYIN THAT SHIT..I DONT GET IT..NEVER WILL..I GUESS YALL LISTEN TO MTV’S HOTTEST 10 RAPPERS LISTS OR SUMTHIN..THE PEOPLE PLAY WHATS HOT..U NEVA WALKING INTO ANY CLUB OR PARTY OR CAR OR HOUSE IN CHICAGO AND HEARING THAT BULLSHIT..I CANT SAY THE SAME FOR OTHER NIGZ ON TOP BECAUSE I HEAR JAY CONSTANTLY..JEEZY..DRAKE..KANYE..I CAN CONTINUE BUT U FUCS IS HATE ANYTHING I SAY ANYWAY..SO IM FINISHED…”WALKS OUT..ROLLS ANOTHA ONE..CONTINUE ABOUT MY BUSINESS..”

      1. Shut up nigga, Kanye’s album was way to pop. He stopped being a good rapper after Graduation but since he’s popular the critics will dickride him and the fans will follow like sheep. You dickriders let mainstream success dictate if an artist is good or not.

    30. LOL! I bet if Kanye said pigs can fly you idiots would believe it lol. I swear everything Kanye says his fans dickride and follow every word of it lol. What the fuck does a critic know about hip hop, and MBDTF is far from hip hop. Lyrically it’s nothing special and all he did was bitch and brag throughout the whole album. Kanye isn’t as great as his fans make him out to be, his 1st three albums are dope but after that he fell off! Big Boi’s newest album killed Kanye’s pop trash techno bullshit!

      1. omg dude how stupid is that post?

        You know who needs to talk shit to feel good bout they self kanye & jay.
        they are the assholes who have to work with corrupt mainstream media to try and fool the american public and manipulate them out of money.
        they are the jerks putting out shit products to fool teenagers many of whom are 20 years younger than these morons.

        wake the fuck up for once

    31. anybody who likes these dudes love having big fat cock pushed in their face.

      there is no other way around it.

      people wake up and shove the cock out ya face
