Kanye West sat down with Sway and King Tech on their “Wake Up Show” and gave us a bit more info on Jay-Z’s song “Jockin Jay-Z” off of his “Blueprint 3” which Kanye co-produced.

West says they sampled from Run DMC. He explains, “[Run] says, ‘I see you jockin’ J.C.’ But it sounds like ‘Jay-Z.’ And I had the idea from the last album. I was like, man, I just need to make a beat ’cause it just messes with people’s heads. Psychologically, they’re like, ‘How could he have said “jockin’ Jay-Z” 20 years ago? Jay-Z was not out.’ I love stuff that messes with people’s heads when it happens.”

It’s good to know a bit more about the song. It’s a great track. However, no one knows when the album will be released, but all we can do is hope it will be soon. Kanye had once said that we might see it in February of 2009, but seeing as we’re more than halfway through February, that’s probably won’t happen.

In town for the NBA All-Star festivities, Jay-Z and Beyonce Knowles attended the Sprite Green Instrument Donation in Mesa, Arizona on Saturday (February 14).

Teaming up with Cleveland Cavaliers All-Star and good friend LeBron James for the good cause, the “99 Problems” hitmaker, in partnership with the new low-calorie Sprite Green soda, donated 150 new musical instruments and an unexpected ,000 check to a local school during the event.
