Jay-Z To Give Nas More Help With New Album

by: Mark Lelinwalla

left “I don’t want to sound disrespectful to Columbia, but I don’t think there was no one in there who had true respect to work with him on his albums,” Jay-Z, the President of Def Jam, told the Associated Press. “I think he was just doing everything on his own, and it’s hard to hear everything on your own.” Just as he did on Ne-Yo's No.1 album, In My Own Words, Jay will be assuming the role of editor on Nas' Def Jam debut project. Jay helped secure a deal with Columbia to have Def Jam release Nas' next two records. Nas' album is scheduled to be released in the late fall.
