In the pantheon of prestige rap, it never gets fancier than a Clipse reunion. While Pusha T and Malice predated the whole "play this street rapper at New York Fashion Week" motif, their stylishly spare soundscapes and high-brow dexterity made them couture rap before couture rap.

Pusha T confirmed Jay-Z was invited to rap on Let God Sort Em Out but never replied with a verse, leaving his absence on the Clipse album unexplained.
