Damn, it feels good to be a gangster. “He spends most of his time in a plush executive suite, or on the beach with a bikini’d Beyonce. But Jay-Z was born a hustler, and his hard-boiled new album takes him back to the days when he sold crack and hid from the cops. Can American Gangster return him to hip-hop glory?” Jay-Z, photographed for Blender magazine by Martin Schoeller in 2007.

Jay-Z aka Cashmere Jones, photographed for Reasonable Doubt by Jonathan Mannion in 1996. Jonathan Mannion and Hov used crime themes such as John Gotti, Brooklyn, drug running, and the Mafia as aspirations for the look of the shoot. The photo shoot took place on the roof of Mannion’s apartment building on 72nd and Riverside in Manhattan - where Donald Trump now has his empire. “Back then, it was all busted and beat up, and it fit the vibe. I knew I could get some beautifully composed shots, based on traditional cameras. So I was shooting with Hasselblads and Rolleiflexes, like press photographers did back in the Civil Rights era.” - Jonathan Mannion, speaking with Complex magazine in 2012.

Hov dropped by and visited Swizz Beatz and Timbaland in the studio earlier today, and let Swizz wear his 5kg Rafaello & Co. gold cuban link chain. I wonder if these legendary collaborators cooked up anything hot?

Nobody can do it as effortlessly as Hov. Sidenote: I bet Drake would love to be able to wear that chain around the house.

“Call me Hov or Jefe/ Translation: I’m the shit/ Least that what my neck say…” That 5kg Rafaello & Co. gold chain is sure saying a lot, Hov.
