As most fans know, JAY-Z and Pharrell Williams have created plenty of hits over the course of their 20+ year career in the music industry. They first locked in together while recording Hov's 2002 album The Blueprint 2: The Gift & The Curse. Williams, alongside his former Neptunes partner Chad Hugo, produced tracks like "Excuse Me Miss" and "F**k All Nite." JAY-Z and Pharrell reunited a year later on the N.E.R.D artist's debut solo single "Frontin'." The two continued to create undeniable hits, including "Change Clothes" from The Black Album, "Anything" off Kingdom Come and more.

“Jay’s writing-and-recording approach looks mysterious from the outside, but it’s actually incredibly disciplined,” Williams said about Hov in a recent interview with GQ. “When Jay is working…he’s completely in a zone. He’s in what you would call a flow state.”

JAY-Z has yet to entertain rumors about his alleged new project. He's been focused on celebrating the upcoming 30th anniversary of his debut LP Reasonable Doubt and the 25th anniversary of The Blueprint. He recently announced an entire weekend of shows where he'll perform his hits from both albums for the first time in years. It's all happening July 10-12 at Yankee Stadium in New York City.
