Rapper Jay-Z has said he “never wanted to be famous”.

Jay-Z, who who has just gone to number one with his single Run This Town with Rihanna and Kanye West, told British Now magazine: “No, I just wanted to make my first album Reasonable Doubt. Then I thought about getting into the business side of music. I was a reluctant rapper.”

The 39-year-old, who thinks music was a way of escaping things when he was growing up, just wanted a job when he was younger.

He added: “I never wanted to be a superstar – I just wanted a job like most people.”
