#TBT: Jay Z & Kanye West - No Church In The Wild

No Church In The Wild

Song by Jay Z & Kanye West 
Featured artists: The-Dream, Frank Ocean 
Produced by Om’Mas Keith, MIKE DEAN, 
88-Keys & Kanye West
Album: Watch The Throne 
Released: 8 August 2011 

“No Church in the Wild” is an existential renunciation of traditional, organized religious worship. Its theme is reminiscent of a famous line delivered by Cassius in Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar:

The fault, dear Brutus
Is not in our stars
But in ourselves
That we are underlings.

This song won the award for “Best Rap/Sung Collaboration” at the 55th annual Grammys in 2013.
