So goes the interview with magazine XXL in which Rick Rubin denies having any involvement in the making of Magna Carta Holy Grail besides lounging on the couch and giving his opinion. Okay so couch lounging is my input after seeing the mini commercial featuring Jay-Z, Swizz Beatz, Pharrell Williams, Timbland and Rick Rubin.

Rick Rubin goes on to reveal a little bit more about the album stating;

“The point of me being in the commercials was that he was filming a documentary and he asked me—I imagine he’s just comfortable talking to me—to come listen to the songs with him and just talk about the songs. Just listen to it and talk about it, and that’s what we did. It was fun. I liked what I heard, but it was a little difficult—after just coming from the Kanye sessions—to listen to Jay’s album, because they’re so different. I was in a very alternative and progressive head space, and Jay’s record is a more traditional hip-hop record.”

Nice to see someone dispelling any hype and being straight up with it all. To read the full article head here.
