According to HipHopDX, Just Blaze has had the unfortunate position of trying to assuage disgruntled fans that are eagerly awaiting the release since the beginning of the decade. Now, in an interview from 2015 with Day One radio has been unearthed through BlackThoughtsSurrounded101, the producer sheds some light on the rapper's though process regarding the album and the possibility that it will never be released.
"There's so much that I have said, I don't know what else I can say," Just Blaze says of the Jay's project, which is reportedly titled Act II. "Obviously a bunch of stuff I'm not gonna say. I don't mean that in a negative way. It's just we inadvertently sparked something that became bigger than the both of us. It's still both of our parts, so I'm not gonna speak on the other person's part. He believes his train is running on schedule and you know what, maybe he doesn't need to drop an album. The album exists. I've got it right here in my pocket."
He continues, "It's a good album, but in terms of what he's doing or how he's going about doing what he's doing, I can't speak on it."
