Wow, check this out. XXL's Elliott Wilson is reporting that "Puffy and the Hitmen", which he later quantifies as Puffy, Sean C. and LV, have 5 tracks on Jay-Z's November 6 release, "American Gangster". From the article:

Jay told me a funny story in the elevator on the way to get his first look at the Hype Williams-directed �Blue Magic� video. He said Puff would always bug him like, �N**** let me executive produce your next album.� Jay would basically be like, �What the f*** you talkin� about? I�m a boss. And you�re a boss. That don�t even make any sense.� But finally Hova gave in and agreed to at least listen to what the Shiny Suit man had cookin� in the stu. Surprisingly, he was blown away. ...

Just how Just Blaze�s work inspired the beginning of Kingdom Come, the Hitmen tracks built the foundation of American Gangster.

Very interesting. Read the article for more.
