If anyone knows Jay-Z’s next musical move, it’s this man. Over the past year or so, Guru’s has been letting of little hints here and there about Jay’s forthcoming solo project and how it’s sort of a concept project but not really. Well yesterday, Complex released a nice interview with the DJ/Engineer/Producer about Jay’s creative whereabouts and some other interesting things you might need to know. Below you can find his response in regards to Jay’s next solo LP.

“Jay-Z is always working on stuff, it’s a concept that I can’t talk about but I’m marveled at how smart this guy is. When he told me the concept, I was like ‘Why didn’t I think of that?’ It was just so simple. It’s not a concept album though. It’s not like American Gangster, it’s not a Beatles concept album. It has a concept and a title, and the title and the concept fit him so well that people are going to be like ‘Wow.’ I like certain writers because it takes me 8,000 paragraphs to get my full point across. When somebody can take what I just said and condense it into two sentences and still have the same effectiveness, that’s a good writer. The simplicity of the title and the concept that it conveys is incredible. I can’t tell you the title, it’s so good it’s like, ‘Oh my god why didn’t I think of that? What made you think of that and why haven’t we done that before?’ It’s just staring us in the face all these years, we could’ve been put that out as an album concept.”
