Jay-Z plans to put a modern spin on jazz when he lends himself to the soundtrack for "The Great Gatsby."

Although the Bullitts, the musical designation for producer/musician Jeymes Samuel, leaked the news late last year, Jay-Z’s  involvement was officially confirmed Friday in a release from Warner Bros.

Jay-Z said he will bring a modern "Jazz Age" energy to the soundtrack for the adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel of 1920s America. He also promised the score will feature “the world's top musical artists,”..

 

 

Jay-Z will be executive producer of the soundtrack and contribute new songs to the score by composer Craig Armstrong, who worked with Luhrmann on "Moulin Rouge!" and "Romeo + Juliet."

 

Does this mean he will have contribution to all the songs? Can we expect those Emile Haynie beats 

 

If this is irrelevant go head and delete

Then he meets Lana, and then they do a song together that shits on Ridin' and then A$AP will be devastated because he didn't add Ridin' to his album

As long as the music is good, I don't really mind.

I bet Jay-Z has never even read Gatsby

why? What would make you think that?  I actually think Jay has quite a bit in common with the book.

Just because he's a black man with money?      Tell us more oh enlightened one.

^ He's post-restricted, don't attempt to engage him or give him the satisfaction of talking about the asinine thing he said. 

EDIT: post is gone, let's go on our merry way and actually discuss news!

[Monicker 3,030]

I bet Gatsby has never even listened to Jay-Z. 

[evilentity 13,303]

I bet Gatsby looks like a white-haired monkey. No offense.

[phahad 691]

I bet Jay-Z has never even read Gatsby

^ So they are both racist too! 

[Viva 3,169]

is Lana really gonna do the scores or/and soundtrack? We didn't have any real confirmation did we?. Well we had her twitt but she didn't say anything after that

^ He's post-restricted, don't attempt to engage him or give him the satisfaction of talking about the asinine thing he said.

Regardless of lana's input, I have such high hopes for this movie. Like I'm on the verge of becoming a gatsby stan and starting a tumblr dedicated to the cause. I hope he invited Nicki Minaj to collab with him for the soundtrack. But slows down her vocals so it's like real Jay-z vs Gay-z. I need this in my life.

[lauradelxx 1,080]

I am so excited for this track I really can not anymore 

 

 

Then he meets Lana, and then they do a song together that shits on Ridin' and then A$AP will be devastated because he didn't add Ridin' to his album

 

PREACH!

If she's too busy with American Idol he can just lay down her tracks himself and speed 'em up.

[Monicker 3,030]

so it's like real Jay-z vs Gay-z. I need this in my life.

 

Wait, are you, like, saying that Jay-Z is gay?? Because he’s black? You should be post-restricted. 

[Sitar 22,171]

Bad jazz singer, givin u tha finger

Gal I agree with hiding the post and definitely some warning points but isn't a post ban a little hasty?

He said what was only the most offensive thing I've ever read on LDR.fm/LB, and not only that, it didn't come from a place of ignorance like previous mishaps here, it was intentionally callous. So no, a post ban isn't a little hasty.
