Next month, Jay Z will embark on his Magna Carter World Tour with a string of UK tour dates. According to the BBC, he’ll be accompanied by Timbaland for these performances.
Timbaland produced several tracks on Magna Carta Holy Grail, as well as many other records from throughout Jay Z’s career. Following the release of The Blueprint 3 in 2009, the two had a falling out, which Jay Z has attributed to a clashing of egos and some premature leakage.
“A couple of songs were getting leaked that were his songs and that whole thing just ruined the process,” Jay Z explained to BBC Radio 1′s Zane Lowe earlier this summer. “Everyone has to put egos aside for the sake of the project and he wasn’t accepting of that and that was almost like the last straw.
“When he came back, I saw a new Timbaland. He has this maturity and this growth and I was like, ‘Oh OK, this is going to work out’,” Jay Z added.
The Magna Carter tour kicks off with a pair of dates in Manchester before hitting Birmingham and London. Check out the full docket below.
