(Video) Check Jay-Z Out, Executive Producer For “The Great Gatsby” [ Trailer ]
I’m wondering what else does Mr. Carter have going on in his professional career, because this one was very much under the wraps. “The Great Gatsby” is the film directed by Baz Luuhrman, stars Leonardo Dicaprio (SEXYNESS), and executive producing the music will be the Jigga Man. The Blueprint rapper will assist Luuhrman in producing a “modern jazz” feel for the up-coming movie. Every since Leo hooked up the two (Jay-Z and Luuhrman), they’ve teamed up to “capture, translate and contrast the feelings of Fitzgerald`s decadent era with that of our own, using hip-hop and jazz, music contemporary and period, to bring two distinct American moments to simultaneous life,” according to the press release from Reuters. I guess congratulations are in order, so CONGRATULATIONS. All I need is some passes for the viewing of the movie – right next to Leonardo Dicaprio. Drop down bottom for more on the story.

Demetrius Ellerbee is suing Young Jeezy for $5MiL claiming that he assisted with the release of multiple mixtapes together, executive producing Jeezy’s Def Jam studio albums, and some other allegations. Demetrius says that him and the “Thug Motivation” rapper have known each other since 1995 and that they are even “best friends.” Jeezy says he’s never even met the dude. How can you forget your best friend? One of the two are lying for sure. Why is this dude in Jeezy’s “A Hustlerz Ambition” documentary (around the 26min mark) if he doesn’t know him?
