In a recent interview with GQ, DJ Khaled discussed the stellar collaborations on God Did and revealed how long he had been building with Jay-Z. He recalled being blessed to watch Hov record much of his 2013 album Magna Carta.

“We became brothers and our friendship became stronger and stronger,” Khaled explained. “It took me a long time [to get his verse]. It wasn’t like he didn’t want to do it. It’s just, Jay-Z is busy with so many different things. And at that time he was extra busy.”

However, Khaled appreciates Hov’s work ethic and passion for Hip-Hop, something he relates to. “[Jay saw] I was born into this s### and [my love] is pure. You have to love it to put together a body of work like [God Did]. I can’t speak for him, but for my situation I can say…[our relationship is] about two winners. We’re both great at what we do.”
