Every Friday Jay Z has been sharing a new video off his ‘4:44’ album. Along with the video Hov gives his ideology behind the single with footnotes. This past Friday dropped the visuals for “Kill Jay Z” and now we’ve got the footnotes.

A standout off the album, “Kill Jay Z” has Hov getting personal with listeners by talking about nearly killing his brother, cheating on Beyoncé, dissing Kanye West, and more. One of the standout things Jay admits in the footnotes is “killing off” his ego.

It’s really about the ego,” He says in the video. “Killing off the ego so we can have this conversation in a place of vulnerability and honesty. JAY-Z the public persona couldn’t have this conversation. It’s really Shawn Carter speaking to JAY-Z. And he has to convince him to move aside.”

The footnotes includes additional commentary from  Chris Rock, Charlamagne Tha God, Mahershala Ali, Van Jones, Trevor Noah, Anthony Anderson, and Michael Che share their thoughts on how ego affects people.
