No I.D. Says Jay-Z's Blueprint 3 Is "Full-Fledged Classic"
Author: Andres Tardio
When Jay-Z announced that he'd release a third installment to The Blueprint series, anticipation blew up. The buzz around the LP has grown tremendously and now we have some information on what has been quite a secretive project to date. Chicago's own No I.D. has been in the lab working on the highly anticipated Jay LP and he's one of the few speaking on the overall sound of the album.
"Me and Kanye [West] been doing a lot of work. We worked on The Blueprint [3] together," he recently said in a video interview with RealTalkXpress.com. He also compared his relationship with West to that of Dr. Dre and Mel-Man, noting that he's put his ego to the side to play the Mel-Man role.
When asked about the album's progression, he spoke on the LP's overall theme and how it connects to Kanye's most recent effort.
"We were doing Blueprint 3 when we did 'Heartless'. ...Everything on Blueprint 3 is...It's like 808's and Heartbreak, but more Hip-Hop."
Before ending the video, he offered this to help anticipation grow even more.
"It's gonna be a full-fledged classic."
