Rapper JAY-Z is dandy to fossa music heavyweights TIMBALAND and KANYE WEST against each other - by claiming he will only opt the topper of their offered tracks.
Reports suggested hitmaker Timbaland was set to bring on every track for the 99 Problems star's forthcoming album.
But Jay-Z has distanced himself from the superproducer's claims, insisting Timbaland's producing plans were "previous".
And if that wasn't enough of a suck to the Elevator hotshot, Jay-Z has namechecked Kanye West as a possible producer for the LP - depending on whether the singer/rapper can come up with the goods.
Jay-Z tells Rolling Stone magazine, "I'm a someone that whole kit and caboodle off music.
"If Timbaland makes 10 great tracks then he produces the album, if Kanye West makes 10 great tracks then he produces the album; if he makes three, I'll take trey. I get the euphony dictate the direction."
