When you listen to an album, it shouldn't feel like, That's the girl song, That's the club song. I shouldn't know what you're thinking while you're making the song. I don't want to know what the artist is thinking.
Jay-Z

Jay-Z
Growing up, politics never trickled down to the areas we come from. But people from Obama's camp, and Obama himself, reached out to me and asked for my help on the campaign. We've sat and had dinner, and we've spoken on the phone. He's a very sharp guy. Very charming. Very cool.
Jay-Z
You ain't gotta go to church to find your God.
