Jay Z, or rather Sean Carter, just can’t seem to stay away from the microphone. It seems as though we’ve heard more from Hov since his announcement to retire than when he was the CEO of the R-O-C.
For the record, the God emcee never stated that he would put the mic down, just that he would never record another album. ”I never said I wasn’t making anymore music,” he told XXL magazine. “I should’ve shut up… me and my big mouth,” he says in reference to his retirement.
While not recording another album, The Def Jam president has been popping up quite a bit lately. There was “Dear Summer” on the latest Memphis Bleek disc, as well as guest spots on songs by Teairra Mari and Kanye West.
The latest collaboration to hit the streets finds Jay linking up with the latest dirty south sensation Mike “Who? Mike Jones” Jones for the remix of “Back Then.” There’s plenty of Sean Carter to go around, and the future may see him following in the footsteps of Too Short and Master P, and returning with a full length album.

“…Maybe one day if I’m on the corner and it’s calling me,” he says of another Jay Z album. “I don’t wanna just box myself in where I can’t make another album.”
