Just what does it take to score a guest verse from an elusive Jay Z in 2016? Perhaps some shots from a conservative pundit and gentle email prodding by one of today’s sharpest lyricists.
The winning combination spawned Pusha T’s lead King Push single “Drug Dealers Anonymous,” which he premiered last night. The G.O.O.D. Music prez had the right inspiration to get Jay hyped to hop on the song.
“I was coming to Los Angeles to work on the G.O.O.D. Music album and play Kanye some new things I’d been working on,” Pusha told Genius on Tuesday. “I played him ‘Drug Dealers Anonymous’ and I said, ‘I want Hov on this.’ He was like, ‘Oh man. That would be fire.’”
According to Pusha, he then left the studio to email Jay Z the track with his verse already on it. Push told Genius the email exchange went a little something like this:
From: Pusha T
To: Jay Z
Subject: Drug Dealers Anonymous
Attachment: 1
The news reporter that called you a 14-year drug dealer, this was the inspiration behind it. Here’s my verse. I left some extra beat for you. Let me know what you think either way.
From: Jay Z
To: Pusha T
Subject: Re: Drug Dealers Anonymous
WTF? Why you taking me to a dark place? Now I’m going to grow my hair out to be on this track with you…
From: Pusha T
To: Jay Z
Subject: Re: Drug Dealers Anonymous
Man, there’s nothing wrong with telling ghost stories. We need them. We love them. We love these things.
After a break in the communication, during which Jay likely began crafting his verse, he hit Pusha back.
From: Jay Z
To: Pusha T
Subject: Re: Drug Dealers Anonymous
Oh this is going to be bad. Oh this is going to be real, real bad. I’ll just blame it all on you.
From: Pusha T
To: Jay Z
Subject: Re: Drug Dealers Anonymous
Ok, that’s fine.
Jay takes the night to finish his verse and responds the next morning.
