Memphis Bleek, former understudy of Jay-Z, has recently been in the spotlight with the release of two singles this year. Fans have noticed Bleek’s return to the music scene and are hopeful that he can convince Jay-Z to collaborate with him on a new track. Bleek himself has expressed his desire to get Jay-Z on a verse, stating that he is “on his neck” to make it happen.
The dynamic between Bleek and Jay-Z dates back to Bleek’s appearance on Jay-Z’s Blueprint 2 album in 2002. Since then, the two rappers have not worked together on a song. Bleek jokingly suggested in a previous interview that Jay-Z might be reluctant to collaborate with him because he believes Bleek is “nicer” than him and would outshine him on a track. Despite the playful banter, Bleek’s determination to get Jay-Z on a verse shows his respect for his former mentor and his eagerness to work alongside one of the greatest rappers of all time.
In a 2017 interview, Bleek expressed his desire to transition from music and explore other ventures. He mentioned wanting to try his hand at working and being involved in different projects. This shift in focus highlights Bleek’s versatility and willingness to explore new opportunities outside of the music industry. Despite his successful career in rap, Bleek is open to new challenges and experiences, showcasing his determination to evolve and grow as an artist and entrepreneur.
As Bleek continues to pursue a collaboration with Jay-Z and explore new ventures outside of music, fans can expect to see more from the talented rapper and entrepreneur. His dedication to his craft and his willingness to take on new challenges make him a force to be reckoned with in the industry. Whether he secures that coveted verse from Jay-Z or not, Bleek’s passion for music and his drive to succeed will undoubtedly lead him to new heights in his career.
