Jay-Z or Kanye West? Everyone has a favourite. The pair have been friends for almost a decade and are finishing up a collaboration on an album under the moniker The Throne. It's a massively anticipated heavyweight rap duo.
One of the only guest producers on the album, The RZA of Wu Tang Clan fame commented, "With this project, it's the best of many worlds. These two guys have a great chemistry and a great relationship," adding "I'm excited."
Jay-Z has dominated the hip-hop charts going on 20 years, with multi-platinum selling albums such as The Blueprint and The Black Album. On the other hand, West's last album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy was heralded as a masterpiece (by himself no less), overshadowing Jay’s last couple of efforts.
For our money, The Black Album is the best of the bunch, but Twisted Fantasy is nipping at it's heels.

Kanye is ready to step out of Jigga's shadow and take the helm as Hip Hop's main man. Recent reports indicate they may be having some creative differences. A case of keeping your friends close? Jay, you may be the current champ, but take your own advice and "Watch the Throne".
