2 Chainz Says He Gave Up On Getting A Verse From Jay-Z

2 Chainz just released his new album So Help Me God! 

The project is stacked with high profile features like Kanye West, Brent Faiyaz, Lil Uzi Vert, Chief Keef, Ty Dolla $ign, Kevin Gates, Mulatto, Lil Wayne, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, and more.

The one person you may not see on that feature list is Jay-Z...

Charlamagne Tha God admits one of his favorite things to do when listening to a 2 Chainz album is to pick out which record JAY-Z would sound the best on, and this album was obvious with “Southside Hov,” which samples Reasonable Doubt‘s “Feelin’ It.”

Speaking with Charlamagne, 2 Chainz broke down his approach with the record, and why he probably will never ask Jay-Z for a feature again.


“Me and Hov cool so I sent him the video when I did it. Just to show him the angle that I wasn’t trying to be him, but since it was a Hov sample and the things that I was talking about in the song was some Hov stuff, so I named it ‘Southside Hov.’ He was like, ‘I’m humbled by it.’ It was a cool back-and-forth we had.

As far as trying to get him on something, I’ve given up on that part. I don’t like rejection. I got this little mental thing, people that I deal with don’t even know this, where I might ask somebody something three times over my whole life and secretly, after the third time, I won’t ever probably ask again.”

Do you think 2 Chainz is done asking, or was this info a hint for Jigga to ask him?
