Jay-Z told Kevin that his music plans are actually up in the air.

“I’m not actively making music or making an album or have plans to make an album,” he said, before adding that he “never wants to say I’m retired…:

Jay-Z added, “It’s a gift, and who am I to shut it off? It’s open to whatever. It may have a different form, a different interpretation. Maybe it’s not an album. Maybe it is. I have no idea, but I’m just gonna leave it open.”

He also looked back on the time that he declared he was retiring from music back in 203.

“I was really burnt out that time. I was releasing an album every year — ’96, ’97, ’98. And then in between that, soundtracks, other people’s albums, Roc-A-Fella, touring back-to-back,” he recalled. “And you know, I just looked up one day and I was like, ‘I’m tired.’ I had never been on a vacation until, like, I want to say 2000. Like, my whole life. And I was just really burnt out at that moment.”

Just recently, a moment between Jay-Z and his eldest daughter, Blue Ivy, went viral.
