Eight nights of shows at his new Barclays Center in Brooklyn couldn’t keep Jay-Z out of the studio.
Pharrell Williams tweeted a photo of himself with the MC and Frank Ocean on Monday, with the Neptunes producer adding, “Can’t wait for y’all to hear what I’m working on with big bro @S_C_ and lil bro @frank_ocean.” Jay-Z completed his Barclays run on Saturday.

Ocean and Jay-Z have worked together before — Ocean contributed vocals to the “Watch the Throne” track “No Church in the Wild.” He’s also written for Hov’s wife, Beyonce, co-penning “4” track “I Miss You.” Pharrell produced Ocean’s “Channel ORANGE” track “Sweet Life.”
In May, Jay told Billboard he was taking time off from recording to “hang out with my daughter. I want to enjoy this time for what it is. I’m sure that bug to get back in the studio will come back at some point.”
Looks like the bug is back.
