West says: “When I did the Twista song, I was making that shit like it was a sitcom itself. At one point in the documentary, we see Kanye in the studio with Jay. I was so excited to be trying out for that song.Fade to Black is the documentary of the making of Jay-Z’s 2003 project, The Black Album. I was so nervous when I played it for Kanye.

And refresh the page and restart the memory? Re-spark the soul and rebuild the energy? We stopped the ignorance, we killed the enemy Sorry for the night demons that still visit me The plan was to drink until the pain over But what's worse, the pain or the hangover? Fresh air, rollin' down the window Too many Urkels on your team, that's why your wins low Don't make me pull the toys out, huh Don't make me pull the toys And fire up the engines, huh And then they make noiseĮven though the invite really was to check out clothes, I had told myself I was going to get on that album-whether he knew or not.
