Kanye West Makes One Of The "Best Hip-hop Beats Of All Time"

Kanye West has been hyping up the new beats he's been producing for Jay-Z's 'The Blueprint 3' album.

So far, a handful of tracks the pair have collaborated on have leaked online, but this isn't bothering Kanye too much. "I just did one beat the other day in Hawaii - probably one of the best hip-hop beats of all time, if I do say so myself." West explained.

"I just gotta do three more beats and we're done, 'cause he's got classics. He's got songs that are better than any of the things you've heard leaked."

But Kanye didn't end with the self-praise there, as he added: "You know what it was - every year I do two albums' worth of really dope beats. This year, Common did his album with Pharrell, and I did 808s & Heartbreak and Blueprint 3."

"So just imagine the caliber of beats on the last two Common albums I did - Jay-Z has those types of beats. Those caliber of beats. A beat like 'The People,' that's the highest caliber of beat."
