Kanye West and Jay Z's opulent lifestyle has certainly never been a secret. One simply needs to look at the album art for Watch The Throne to understand just how lavishly these two like to live. However, until recently, fans could only imagine. According to TMZ both rappers have extremely long lists of demands for the hotel rooms in which they stay, including clothing, alcohol and refreshments. This, of course, pairs well with lyrics to songs like "Picasso, Baby" or "N---as In Paris". However, some of the specific demands will blow your mind.
Jay Z's demands are somewhat predictable (though as luxurious as one could imagine). He tells hotel staff that he requires the room to be 71 degrees. Hotel staff must also provide three $80 Mayan tuberose-scented (Note - Tuberose is similar to Gardenia.) candles. He also apparently tells the staff not to vacuum near his room, or to ask for concert tickets (as he wants them to "avoid embarrassment").
As TMZ tells us, Kanye requires that all vases must be cylindrical. He also needs the staff to hunt down Genelec 1031a speakers, which were discontinued a decade ago. The rapper/producer also prefers black towels and Kashi GoLean cereal.
HipHopDx reports that Kanye "[requires] 13 bottles totaling around $3,200, including three bottles of Paradis Hennessy."
Jay Z also demands liquor (Ace of Spades champagne), but refuses to accept any charges, as he owns the company.
As TMZ tells us, Jay Z is also very protective of Blue Ivy when she stays with him at hotels. According to the article, "the entire suite must be childproofed with all corners, sharp edges and electrical outlets all covered, and statues, lamps and breakable objects removed. Oh, Blue only drinks organic whole milk."
While one may assume that the rappers would come prepared with the approriate accomidations for overnight stays, it is clear that each requires very specific amenities while traveling.
