JAY-Z TAKING TIME WITH NEW ALBUM

Rapper JAY-Z has warned fans they may have a long wait to hear his highly anticipated forthcoming album The Blueprint 3.

The 99 Problems hitmaker began work on the record last year (08) and was widely expected to have released it by the start of this year (09).

But Jay-Z is in no hurry to release the follow up to 2007's acclaimed American Gangster LP, and refuses to put a timeframe on it's completion.

He tells MTV, "For me, the process of making an album is difficult with so many things going on. And me, I wanna make it beyond and above. I'm gonna take my time with it. I don't have any quotas, and that's a good thing.

"It may be too freeing. It's a good thing and a bad thing. You know, I think I need some restrictions. Cause if I had restrictions, I would have done it in three weeks. I would have made what I believe to be a great piece of art."
