Remember last December when Jay Z told MTV that there will be a WTT2? Well it’s gonna happen. According to Mike Dean, a veteran producer who pionnered the “Dirty South” sound in the 90′s, became Kanye’s personnal engineer, who worked on the Watch the Throne album and is also on stage during the WTT concerts overseeing the sound, confirmed that rap’s royalty will go back into the studio together for a sequel…
“I’m working on the G.O.O.D. Music album, of course,” Dean told Quiet Lunch. “And Watch The Throne 2 — it’s not started yet, but it’s coming.”

“Bear witness as Doom discusses the early ’80s episodes of Afrika Islam’s “Zulu Beats” radio shows on WHBI, which would provide the inspiration for his signature audio collages. Listen as he explains the defining characteristics of his plethora of performance personas (Zev Love X, Doom, Viktor Vaughn, King Ghidra). Marvel as he dissects the makings of classic recordings such as KMD’s Mr. Hood and Black Bastards, Operation: Doomsday, and his essential collab with Madlib, Madvillain’s Madvillainy. Mystery, science, and theater – all in abundance when this Supervillain speaks.”

“The whole thing started from a single image… We were talking about Jay-Z when he appeared in the ’09 World Series. And he came out and sang his anthem, ‘Empire State Of Mind.’ And we were struck by the fact that this is the great American stage – and yet he talking about Dominicanos and stash-houses and things like that. And we were like, ‘Do people even know what he’s talking about?’” – Martin Torgoff
