The internet thing as well.. soo real, no one's utilising the internet the right way. Just a platform to highlight the way things are done rather than fuck things up (in the right way)
Jay is a cool dude. Got nothing but love and respect. You can see the passion he has for the music whenever it comes on and he starts talking about it. Hola Hovitooooo!
It's lovely because 10 years later. I had been made a chance since the grace of this interview. Tryin' to figure it all out. How to get back where I belong? It took discipline, love, and learning. Sitting here today. I realize I've watched this many times. I will watch it many more time bc all the comfort it brings my soul. The pain, joy, and learning from experience was so special to me looking back at 31 to my 21 y/o self.
this zane guy is a very good interviewer he has a set list of topics and questions of course but he is able to adapt listen and respond to the interviewee
He is a great interviewer. My problem with interviewers is that a high percentage don't know anything about who they are interviewing. Zane does his research and knows the genre of information that his views want.
definitley i agree hes able to gain the artists respect fairly quickly because he knows what hes talking about. it makes the interview so much more interesting because you can tell the artist begins to open up more.
zane lowe is incredibly privileged to be in the position he's in, he has a job in which he gets to experience the dreams of many people. yet 4 days a week he comes on the air with true enthusiasm for all genres. i've listened to him interview some true greats from the likes of jay-z & eminem, through to unheard bands, & with this he maintains the same level of passion for music and talent in general. others would get lost in this environment, yet zane stays focused and pure. hats off to you zane
Amazing interview! I have so much admiration for Jay Z. He's very intelligent, well spoken and not shallow. And props to the interviewer for really knowing his stuff.
I love these! I could listen to Jay-Z speak for days, and Zane Lowe is Amazing! We need to see more of him, more interviews from him with other visionaries in art, music, and fashion. This is great BBC! I hope there are more to come!
Zane Lowe is the proof that when the interviewer knows about the shit coming out of his mouth an interview can become a great conversation. Great work. Can't wait for the rest.
Jay is a power player, elevated mind set. Real boss, first sent J.Cole in on Ye, stole a bit of thunder, then he came to restore true hip hop, while Ye is busy dealing with dash drama and paparazzi. Real revival. Your move Ye. Watch out Nas, he said you stumbled on the album in a session.
Whenever I hear Jay speak about Kanye, its always been with a lot of genuine admiration and respect...I wish Kanye would publicly apologise to the guy. I love them both.
zane lowe is genuinely fascinated by music, his knowledge goes way beyond an artist's singles and latest hair cut. its a shame that proper music journalists are a dying breed.
A complete Jay z fan so when I watch an interview I look forward to his response depending on the interviewer and I must say this man put together a great interview and Jay in turn gave great responses as a thank you for being prepared love how thoughtful and prepared he is to share his insight
he was actually part of a new zealand hip hop group in the 90's but for the last 10 years has been a VERY respected new music broadcaster on radio 1, he has also interviewed a lot of big names, including jay a few times, his style (if you were to listen to his show as opposed to just judge him) is very fast paced and high energy... He knows what he's doing and so telling him to shut up is a stupid thing to do as it would mess up the flow and the way he gets Jay to say things in the interview...
Jay the reason why the powers that be aren't accepting of change and they want to keep it all the same because that means they aren't I'm control and you are as the artist at that point. Keep pushing the envelope and get this hip hop music back to the people where it should be and where it should stay forever. That's when you have a pure product that's great again. IJS. Peace
Jay speaking his verse, dissecting his work has me realising just how much depth rap has.. and himself, greatest
The internet thing as well.. soo real, no one's utilising the internet the right way. Just a platform to highlight the way things are done rather than fuck things up (in the right way)
Jay is notorious for having a lot of content compact into his rhymes. very intelligent dude
It really does !!
🔑
I could watch Jay Z interviews all day, I learn so much everytime I hear this guy speak
fr
The way Jay Z carries his self speaks a lot about his character and about his humbleness and that a great way to be keep up the good work Jay..
Jay is a cool dude. Got nothing but love and respect. You can see the passion he has for the music whenever it comes on and he starts talking about it. Hola Hovitooooo!
dfw
His repertoire combined with his catalogue, his skills set and his legacy make him the best rapper alive.
agree 100%.
Nas: Am I a joke to you?

Zane is a very intelligent dude, he knows his shit, not like so many of the other annoying interviewers
ditto, like at 5:35, that's how you ask someone how it's like to be famous.
this zane guy is a very good interviewer he has a set list of topics and questions of course but he is able to adapt listen and respond to the interviewee

When Jay just speaks his lyrics and explains them, it's poetry
The passion for music between these two is inspiring.
Zane Lowe need to write a book "How to give good interviews"
Yes, and I especially loved how understanding he was with Kanye.
from part 1 till part 3 they're continuously on 1 line.
so amazing
yeah, but he has a tendency to cut people off RIGHT when they're making their point
Paused the video to say hats off to the interviewer. So refreshing to see an interview with substance coordinated but a well-informed interviewer.
I paused the video to say can you shut the fuck up?

I love jay Z interviews. I agree I want good questions don’t waste his time or is fans time. This was a good one. Always
Loved the interview... Everybody else gives boring hip hop interviews...this was more of a conversation...Keep up the good work...
best interview I've seen he did an excellent job Jay seemed more comfortable with the guy doing the interview compared to other interviews I've seen
I love these! I could listen to Jay-Z speak for days, and Zane Lowe is Amazing! We need to see more of him, more interviews from him with other visionaries in art, music, and fashion. This is great BBC! I hope there are more to come!
Zane Lowe is the proof that when the interviewer knows about the shit coming out of his mouth an interview can become a great conversation. Great work. Can't wait for the rest.
This type of stuff is refreshing, healthy and mature for hip hop. I loved the dialogue.
The best thing I've learned from Jay Z and Beyonce is to never allow people to limit your greatness.
How many Xanax's does Zane Lowe take to remain that calm while interviewing KING HOV
he is a kiwi. we are all chill
aritweets you mean he's a fruit? Ba dum bum!
Another amazing interview love it when interviewers actually know what they are talking about like Zane does!
A true artist and musician!
And a true interview about music!
Zane is a great interviewer.. really let Jay Z open up because he made him feel comfortable.
Zane Lowe is a great interviewee, educated, accurate and all levels
That way Jay Z carries his self speaks a lot about his character and about his humbleness
I liked the dialogue and the way the host is relaxed around Jay-z while interviewing him. Not many people can pull that off.
I appreciate hearing the why's to Jay-Z music creations because it always offers more than the surface. Good piece.
Zane was a good interviewer this time with jay
Mt Eden, Auckland represent!
2013 was a big yr for music
yay ive been wanting to watch this for so long, these interviews are sick. both have a passion for music
Jay is a power player, elevated mind set. Real boss, first sent J.Cole in on Ye, stole a bit of thunder, then he came to restore true hip hop, while Ye is busy dealing with dash drama and paparazzi. Real revival. Your move Ye. Watch out Nas, he said you stumbled on the album in a session.
Zane Lowe the GOAT interviewer and he’s the only emotional support interviewer
this was really refreshing coming off watching the kanye interview..
This is a masterclass in Journalism and artistry. Fabulous.
This interview is nice. A quality conversation with an artist.
Whenever I hear Jay speak about Kanye, its always been with a lot of genuine admiration and respect...I wish Kanye would publicly apologise to the guy. I love them both.
Probably the best interviewer i've ever seen. no stupid questions. i like that
A Pharrell interview is only right
Or a Kid Cudi interview would be even better.
He is indeed. I've seen several interviews with Jay and Zane is definitely trying ask different questions which is hard to do.
i hope he does an EM interview, i really enjoy these
Great interview!!!!!! Don't often get to see jay-z open up like this in a comfortable environment with a knowledgable presenter. Finally!
Interviewing Professionalism at its finest...much respect to Zane Lowe
i like how he described Yeezus as if 2 people were looking at a painting in an art gallery..makes sense
Amazing interview!!
Mt Eden referred to in interview cool! Casual informative just great!!!
Love the way he thinks. Such an inspiration. ...
zane lowe is genuinely fascinated by music, his knowledge goes way beyond an artist's singles and latest hair cut. its a shame that proper music journalists are a dying breed.
I wish this interview lasted 4 more hours
Finally a great interview, great job!
His analogy of kanye west album was perfect!!! Couldn't of said it any better. Watched both parts awesome interview!
i can hear this guy for hour... jay to the Z !!!
Dope interview so far!!! Lets get the rest !!
Awesome interview and i'm only half way through. VERY DETAILED!!!
What a Man
Great interview with my favorite artist.
I do agree with your statement.
This interview makes me remember when Eminem was speaking on the subject on The Way I Am.
incredible interview series
good to have u back reely need back hip hop rap is dead
A complete Jay z fan so when I watch an interview I look forward to his response depending on the interviewer and I must say this man put together a great interview and Jay in turn gave great responses as a thank you for being prepared love how thoughtful and prepared he is to share his insight
U can tell J is a classic person.... Look at them Shawn Kemps!!!!!! Respect!!
"there's so much music out there that just, exists" Tell'em Zane, thats real talk
Waiting for Part 3!!!!
Love his mentalit, i can relate, inspiration
Zane Lowe is so fucking relaxed casually chatting with Hov. One of the best interviewers I've seen.
He have the interview style I would have if I was a host
Great interview

Very fluid conversation. Great work
I NEED PART 3 now please!

Id love to chill wit Jay an smoke a j, he so calm an collective an intelligent
Yeah, I never heard JT sing like that before either. Good Interview.
he was actually part of a new zealand hip hop group in the 90's but for the last 10 years has been a VERY respected new music broadcaster on radio 1, he has also interviewed a lot of big names, including jay a few times, his style (if you were to listen to his show as opposed to just judge him) is very fast paced and high energy...

Excellent interview, no whack questions about illuminati it was just about the music!
Respect!
makes sooooo much sense
Jay-z is just the best of all living rappers. Top 5 all time. No 3" after pac and biggy. He's just pure genius... love the album. Long live jigger man
Zane is best interviewer.
Jay-Z is such a clever man filled with knowledge. Big man
Great interview man. Zane ima new fan
Great Jay-Z x Zane interview!!!
I wish there was an interview with Beyonce like this..
Incredible
You can really tell that he doesn't do music for the money, he does it because it's his passion. Such an inspiration.
Jay the reason why the powers that be aren't accepting of change and they want to keep it all the same because that means they aren't I'm control and you are as the artist at that point. Keep pushing the envelope and get this hip hop music back to the people where it should be and where it should stay forever. That's when you have a pure product that's great again. IJS. Peace
Zane's Face when the beat drops at 2:32 LOL
I didnt want this to end...
