Kanye West, Jay-Z Take Over Hotel To Finish 'Watch The Throne'

February 10, 2011
Kanye West, Jay-Z Take Over Hotel To Finish 'Watch The Throne'Kanye West and Jay-Z have taken over an entire floor of a New York to continue work on their new joint album, according to reports.

The two rappers are understood to be working on 'Watch The Throne' at the Mercer Hotel.

"They took over at least one whole floor and moved in their equipment, which may have annoyed some of the guests,” a source told the New York Post.

'H.A.M', the album's first single, was released in January and divided the opinion of music critics.

West has previously stated that 'Watch The Throne' would be released in March, followed by his follow-up to 2010's 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy'.
