Jay-Z & Kanye West – No Church In The Wild (BTS Video)
Here’s the first official look of Jay-Z and Kanye West’s “No Church In The Wild” video shoot (which doesn’t include the two) shot in Prague, Czech Republic with director Romain Gavras (M.I.A.’s “Bad Girls”).
The second day was recorded in the street Jungmanova at Wenceslas Square, then everything moved to Legion Bridge at the National Theatre. In Jungmanova street broke shop windows, throwing smoke bombs and ran a classic fight with police.The Legion Bridge demolition was a police car, which eventually bang. The third day was chosen only the best about 60 thugs, filmed in the street theater, where he filmed a scene with a horse (see video below). Another scene took place even on the roof of the National Theatre. A final scene took place at New Square scenes. The shooting was everywhere like lasers and lighting effects. Unfortunately, the recording showed Kanye or Jay.

Young Guru On New Jay-Z Album & Watch The Throne Sequel
The big homie Young Guru sat down with Complex to speak on Jay-Z’s next solo outing..
Jay-Z is always working on stuff, it’s a concept that I can’t talk about but I’m marveled at how smart this guy is. When he told me the concept, I was like ‘Why didn’t I think of that?’ It was just so simple. It’s not a concept album though. It’s not like American Gangster, it’s not a Beatles concept album. It has a concept and a title, and the title and the concept fit him so well that people are going to be like ‘Wow.’I like certain writers because it takes me 8,000 paragraphs to get my full point across. When somebody can take what I just said and condense it into two sentences and still have the same effectiveness, that’s a good writer. The simplicity of the title and the concept that it conveys is incredible.I can’t tell you the title, it’s so good it’s like, ‘Oh my god why didn’t I think of that? What made you think of that and why haven’t we done that before?’ It’s just staring us in the face.
Guru also shares his thoughts on the possibility of Watch The Throne 2 and what he’d like to see happen. Check what he had to say here.
