Nas previously discussed the possibility of working with Jay-Z again during an interview with NME last year.
Meanwhile, Jay-Z said in a rare interview earlier this month that he hopes to be remembered like “Bob Marley and all the greats”.
Asked how he hoped he would go down in history, the rapper replied: “I’m not beyond ego, right? Hopefully they speak of me [with] the names of Bob Marley and all the greats. But that’s not for me to say.”
