JAY-Z’s episode of My Next Guest Needs No Introduction is out today, and the episode’s final preview is all about his relationship with Kanye West . “Are we friends, or are we not friends?”“That’s my brother,” JAY-Z answers. “We’re beyond friends. Like literally, my little brother is Kanye. And like your little brother, things happen sometimes.

To this, Letterman asked for more information, and JAY-Z hinted that the story behind his falling out with Kanye, who he really does think of a brother even though he clarifies that “we didn’t come from the same father and mother,” will be more obvious once it’s resolved, adding “The thing I respect about him is that he is the same person.”

“Like he interrupted our studio session and stood on the table and started rapping,” JAY-Z continued, sharing the story of one of their first meetings, “and we were like, ‘could you please get down?’ And he was like, ‘no, I am the Savior of Chicago.’ He ain’t even have a record.”
