Rapper Jay Electronica has revealed an upcoming collaboration he has in the works with rap heavyweight Nas. Electronica has also mentioned other projects he has in the works with Mos Def and his desire to work with Lupe Fiasco. Here is the direct quote:
“Me and Mos have a project that we’re doing, me and Guilty Simpson have a project that we’re doing. I would like to do a project with Lupe, we’re going to do a project at some point. Me and Nas have a project that we’re doing. I’m just trying. I’m in the process of working and connecting. I don’t really feel like a song or an album is the end-all, be-all to what we’re doing. You can expect my album this year. You can expect multiple projects this year. We’re going to do a lot this year.” (MTV)
If Jay can pull of collaborations with Nas, Mos Def AND Lupe and put them all on the same album, you may be looking at a future classic Hip-Hop album in the works.
