Jay-Z to Compose ‘The Great Gatsby’ Score

Well, looks like Hov will be adding ‘composer’ to his resumé. He’s been tapped to compose the score for the upcoming film The Great Gatsby, starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

Hip-hop mogul Jay-Z probably isn’t the first artist who comes to mind when most people imagine the soundtrack to the film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic novel The Great Gatsby, but a recent tweet from the Bullitts’ Jeymes Samuel confirmed that he and Jay-Z are part of the team producing the score for the upcoming movie, which Samuel called “too dope for words.”
