Over the years, the duo collaborated on several iconic songs and albums. While the pair might have fallen off now, a few years ago, their friendship was surely exemplary. 

The iconic duo of Jay-Z and Kanye West are a distant memory now. Back in the day, the duo were ‘best friend goals’ for a whole generation.

And, just in case you have forgotten how close the duo were, this throwback clip of Ye talking about Jay-Z’s favorite films will surely refresh your memory. 

Kanye West reveals his and Jay-Z’s favorite movies

A while ago, Kanye West’s fan page YM shared an iconic clip of the ‘Flashing Lights’ hitmaker talking about Jay-Z and their favorite films. The clip featured a young Ye recalling some memorable moments he spent with the ‘Umbrella’ rapper. West, during the interview, revealed how he and Jay-Z watched the popular film Mean Girls before adding, “and that is how we party.” Following that, the ‘Flashing Lights’ hitmaker admitted how his and Jay-Z’s taste in movies was poles apart. 

The rapper recalled the time when he and Hov argued about their best movies during their flight together. While Ye was a fan of romantic comedy films like Come To America, Jay-Z was a huge gangster film buff. West added that the ‘Numb Encore’ rapper loved movies like Goodfellas, the Godfather series, and Scarface. As hilarious as it sounds, Ye even admitted asking Jay-Z, “Hey Jay, Do you like any movies about normal people.“

However, despite the incredible bond they shared, the pair fell off. While the exact reason is not known, West once revealed that it all started to go downhill when Jay-Z did not attend his wedding with Kim Kardashian. 

Why Jay-Z and Beyoncé did not attend the Kimye wedding?

Back in 2014, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian had the biggest star-studded wedding of the time. A plethora of celebrities attended the event in Florence, Italy. However, fans could not help but notice how Ye’s dear friend and rapper Jay-Z and Beyoncé did not show up for the wedding. While many speculations suggested a rift between the two, the actual reason was very different.

Apparently, Jay-Z and Beyoncé not attending the wedding had much to do with their own marital issues. The marriage occurred just a few weeks after Jay-Z’s infamous elevator fight with Queen Bey’s sister surfaced online. Owing to the drama that unfolded after the video, the couple opted to stay away from the limelight and eventually decided to skip Ye’s wedding. The rapper confirmed the same on one of his songs, FRIENDS.

Meanwhile, irrespective of their fallout, their previous collaborations continue to dominate the charts even today. What are your favorite songs by the duo? Comment down below.
