JAY-Z Recorded His ‘GOD DID’ Verse In One Take, Says Engineer Young Guru According to his longtime engineer Young Guru, JAY-Z rapped his almost four-minute verse on DJ Khaled’s “GOD DID” in a single take. “People think I’m still not amazed when he walk in and do these verses,” he told Genius’ Rob Markman and GQ’s Frazier Tharpe.  Guru says JAY-Z worked differently for his “GOD DID” verse than for his previous work. When Guru got the beat from Khaled, he tried looping it, but JAY-Z requested the entire instrumental.  The almost four-minute verse has Guru amazed with him immediately tweeting, “HOV is the greatest of all time. This can’t be debated anymore!!!” Do you think JAY-Z is the greatest rapper alive? What makes a great rapper?
