One track was titled “Jockin’ Jay-Z.”The rapper’s partner-in-crime, Memphis Bleek, revealed further info regarding the upcoming album. He told Billboard.com Kanye West gave him some beats, which he loved.

“I told Jay that I’m hating on him for having [those beats],” Bleek said. “The beats are like new rhythms with old drums. Just picture Jay-Z having four records like ‘Encore.’”

The Blueprint 3 will be Jay’s last album with Def Jam, which he will follow up by starting to record under his new deal with Live Nation. There is no date set for the album as of press time.
