This is up there for me

Man you know I get what you mean but Idk I wouldn't call it being socially awkward. I think sometimes people have difficulty articulating what they wanna say, mixed with maybe some anxiety. Jay is, f if not one of the smoothest most sociable people in the industry. When I think socially awkward I think Just Blaze lol ​

Hov was tight AF after that Garden incident on Angie show. Never saw him that mad ever.

But my favorite was probably the Rap Radar one. In a way u got to hear how he ranks his own albums

That MTV interview where he's driving around in 2000



the second favorite is the 1998 one:

Hear Jay Z Describe His Perfect Woman In This Vintage 1998 Video - Capital XTRA

Jay has some interesting interviews cause he's got an interesting and secretive life, but considering how interesting his life is, his interviews are pretty boring. Imagine if he could let loose like Redman or some shyt on Nore's show

I'd say Puff too, Puff just acts like he's loose because he likes to get drunk and loves constant attention. But he really doesn't get too deep into anything

 

[Sinister]

The xxl interview for blueprint 3

Both interviews with Nas (Touree and Sway)

Rude Jude Jude Shade 45 interview in 06

The Flex Kingdom Come era interview that also had the grammy family freestyle

Others

Facts. If you look at a lot of the “legends” who’ve lasted in the game 20 years plus, they all seem to have very understated personalities outside of their rap personas (Jay, Nas, Dr. Dre, Scarface, Andre3000, Em, etc.)

In interviews all of these guys seem super reserved, reclusive even.

Yup and alot of the major contemporary artists like Rihanna, Frank Ocean, Drake to an extent follow the blueprint (no pun).​

 

[DontEemTry]

The interview with Angie Martinez after the R Kelly debacle.

That shyt was hilarious how Hov lost his cool. nikka was heated.

 

[BK The Great]

He broke this down perfectly, not sure if it qualifies as a interview tho

 

[Tetris v2.0]

His Howard Stern interview was dope
