Man, miss me with the fake Jay and B quotes already. Headlines. Some of you sites will do anything for attention and traffic. You really believed B would speak to Star magazine? Tuck your tabloid in. And why would Hov need to write a letter to his daughter? Bitch please. He wrote a song! It's called "Glory" and it's pretty fuckin' revealing. He went on the record (double entendre) but you still don't get it. You may hear baby Blue's first cries but no you don't know her height, weight or what she looks like. And no you ain't gettin' a flick, fool. Can new parents get some privacy? Even if they are celebrities. Sheesh! Who raised you animals? Party at the 40/40. Paps outside. Rushin' the velvet rope. Don't trip over your integrity.
Put us here if you like. The RR store stays open 24/7. SOPA? Yeah we Showcase Our Product Always. And we're gonna continue straight ahead til somebody up there turns out the lights. Start from scratch? I'm not afraid.Q-Tip Renaissance Intv (Part 4): The Final Chapter

This is it. If you missed 1. 2. 3. Screw you. Oh never mentioned Kamaal and I have same boxing trainer so knowing that maybe the ending makes sense.
On “Life is Better,” you got Norah Jones singing like she
(Laughs) I know right. His shit is dope too. But he came to the lab and knocked the shit out. That’s my dude right there, man. He’s doing much better, finishing his shit up right now. But, it was good to do that.
I’m sure you really wanted him on the album.
Hell yeah! Hell yeah! Hell yeah! Definitely.
How much input did he have on the song? Is it something you guys crafted together?
He definitely arranged his vocal and put all those harmonies together. It’s like, just letting him do his thing, you know you’re gonna get blessed.
Finally, “Shaka,” why do you feel the song was incomplete without the Obama intro and how upset were you when you couldn’t use it?
Yeah man, it was just like the label acted like he would sue us. Yeah, Obama’s gonna sue us (sarcastically), ask us for royalties and shit ’cause we sold it. That’s their thing like we took the speech off a public domain but we’re selling it so we can get sued. Like, alright, y’all being a little too fuckin’ anal. Like, dude is gonna look at this shit and be like come on now.
Plus you had done some campaigning for him anyhow.
Yeah, and he ain’t pay me so… (Laughs) But I still wanted to put it on there because it’s speaking about my man Shaka, my man J Dubb and my Dad and people I lost. I just named it Shaka ’cause that was my best friend who aint here.
He got murdered.
How old were you when your Pops passed?
16. My dad died of emphysema. Smoking…
You don’t smoke, right? That’s why you’re so extra healthy (Laughs).
(Laughs)
See ya at the gym.
