On The Set: Kanye West & Jay-Z – No Church In The Wild
The Throne have been quietly preparing their latest visual with the assistance of director Romain Gavras in Prague, but a Czech Republic-based website has been reporting pictures and video from the set. No Jay or ‘Ye sightings yet, but there’s definitely plenty of action to go around.
The second day was recorded in the street Jungmanova at Wenceslas Square, then everything moved to Legion Bridge at the National Theatre. In Jungmanova street broke shop windows, throwing smoke bombs and ran a classic fight with police.The Legion Bridge demolition was a police car, which eventually bang. The third day was chosen only the best about 60 thugs, filmed in the street theater, where he filmed a scene with a horse (see video below). Another scene took place even on the roof of the National Theatre. A final scene took place at New Square scenes. The shooting was everywhere like lasers and lighting effects. Unfortunately, the recording showed Kanye or Jay.

Syl Johnson Settles Lawsuit with Kanye West & Jay-Z
Cue up “The Joy” jokes.
It appears Syl has settled out of court with Ye and Jay in his copyright infringement case against the pair for their alleged illegal jacking of “Different Strokes.”
Says TMZ:
Jay-Z and Kanye West have to be feeling a little more joyful than usual — because the hit-making duo has settled a federal lawsuit over their song “The Joy” … TMZ has learned.
The “Watch the Throne” rappers were sued last October by Syl Johnson for using an unauthorized sample of his song “Different Strokes.” Johnson had claimed Kanye tried to get the song cleared for his solo album, “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy,” but couldn’t get the deal done in time.
So when the sample then appeared on “WTT,” Johnson filed the lawsuit.
But in legal docs filed in Illinois federal court this week, the lawsuit was dismissed because the two sides reached a settlement … though no further details were made available.
