Kanye West & Jay-Z – Watch The Throne Documentary [Video]

After seeing it online all day, I finally got a chance to watch the whole 10 minutes of this Watch The Throne Documentary (Which I guess is leaked since it’s been getting yanked down all day). It shows Jay-Z & Kanye West as they travel around the world and create the Watch The Throne album. It has some interesting moments:

  • While they’re very private couple, we get to see Beyonce actually interact with Jay-Z at his birthday dinner (King B makes a few cameos in the video).
  • Speaking of that dinner, watch how much Kanye explained what went into the ring he got Jay-Z as a birthday present. Even though they’re basically on the same level in terms of fame, Yeezy still wants the approval and acceptance from his “Big Brother”.
  • I know that Kanye mentioned Russell Crowe in a (I guess) upcoming song, but did he REALLY have to come to the studio and hear it? I mean, what the fuck is Russell Crowe doing in the studio with Jay-Z and Kanye West? (I heard Russell Brand‘s name in that same song so I guess he should look for an invite too).
  • In this technological era, Jay-Z recording a verse looks like my homeboys back in the day recording a verse; just a chair and a computer.

It’s more, but you can just watch it for yourself.

  1. My friend said Monster was supposed to be on the Watch The Throne EP and Jay-Z got mad when it leaked. idk if thats true or not, but if it is, is Kanye giving Jay the Monster picture a mea culpa?

  2. Things surely have changed though, nobody use studio time much anymore… Much cheaper to do it at the crib anyway.

    Beyonce is so damn fine… Jay-Z is one lucky man….. It make no sense on how sexy she is

    I hope this album is good! It better be… They shouldn’t even use that HAM song at all, not as a Bonus either. It should remain unreleased or be deleted.

    Well whenever they decide to release Pac album it would kill this one anyway.

      1. Well you know he have more unreleased material that haven’t came out still til this day and musically better.

        1. No it doesn’t matter. I can’t remember the last Pac album they have released that I even slightly enjoyed. There is a reason he never released it. After Better Dayz it has all been pretty bad or recycled old shit.

          1. That’s because they remixed the music.. Better Dayz album sucked to me because I already had the original versions of the songs….. If they keep everything original then I wouldn’t complained.

            C’mon guys, why do you all think I been making them mixtapes…. I want to show people that them albums they been putting out is full of shit. I even have the original version of Makaveli album I haven’t uploaded yet.

            Like I said Jay-Z & Kanye album better be dope and I’m sure it will be okay but if Death Row decide to release Pac new album in original form then Jay & Ye material won’t be touching Pac music at all, not to me anyway. I do like Jay-Z and Kayne though… A matter of fact I bought the first three Kanye albums when they first dropped, and I bought Jay-Z “Reasonable Doubt album all the way through Black Album”. I didn’t buy that horrible Kingdom Come… I stop buying Jay-Z albums after 03.

  3. I thought Jay didn’t cut his hair until the album was finished? It looks freshly cut in the entire video…No homo, just pointing that out. Or maybe since its a collab and not his own album altogether…?

  4. im pretty sure i heard someone say beyonce is sexy as hell. i completly cosign.

    if i had beyonce, nicki minaj, and million dollars in my house right now…damn i would never be that happy AGAIN..well until they put my ass in mortal kombat as DLC. fuck it kratos is in that shit and im not?! FOH.

    1. You might be right man… We will see though…. Blueprint 3 was a let down for me and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy wasn’t as good as College Dropout-Graduation.

  5. what song do yall think that is at 6:14-6:50??? I think it might be Illest Motherfucker Alive cause it song like a Southside/Lex Luger/Tay Beatz beat.

  6. I really hope this album lives up to expectations. Some folks say Ye is overrated, and folks been all over the board with Hov. But just speaking about Ye here….check this shit out. This is from tumblr:

    this will be his 6th album in his 7 year rap career
