Busta Rhymes, Large Pro & DJ Premier Talk Jay Z With Combat Jack

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Busta Rhymes, Large Professor and DJ Premier trade stories about Jay Z with the crew from The Combat Jack Show in this mashup of clips from a handful of chats on Complex TV. The anecdotes range from Busta Rhymes early days battling Jay Z at Westinghouse High School in Brooklyn to Jay's time on tour with Large Professor and Nas; Large Pro offers a memorable retelling of the tour bus confrontation that prompted Jay's lines about the tecs on the dresser. DJ Premier rounds out the chat with a discussion of the forces that have hindered his ability to do more work with Jay, particularly the differences in their respective rates of productivity; DJ Premier works at a much slower pace than Jay - a point he says has forced Hov to move forward on projects without him. Though they have had their differences, Primo touts Jay as a great communicator and assures that there is only love between them. Check the footage below to watch the full clip.
