JayZ made a huge claim saying he'd make Harry Styles the biggest artist in the world within a year if he signs up under the rapper mogul's Roc Nation label during One Direction's hiatus.
The Independent UK has reported that JayZ expressed his interest over the most popular member of One Direction.
Beyonce's better half said Harry Styles "needs to make the transition from being part of a group to becoming an individual artist. I can get him working with the bigger artists, the biggest producers - and have him as the biggest artist in the world within a year."
Rihanna and Kanye West's mentor admitted he'd have a problem signing the young star up because of Styles' manager, Simon Cowell. But the rap star said he's willing to have a "joint venture" with the X Factor judge, according to News AU. "We both have big qualities we can bring to the table." He also said that the 21-year-old could make enough money "for everybody to get a piece of the pie".
Simon Cowell brought Harry styles, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, and Louis Tomlinson together back in 2010 and signed them under his label Syco Music, which is under Sony Music Entertainment. Since then they've been making young girls swoon with their hits "What Makes You Beautiful", "Little Things" and "Steal My Girl".
There were rumors that Harry Styles was headed for a solo career when he wrote four new songs and registered it under his own name, reported The Guardian. These songs were entitled Coco, Already Home, Endlessly, and 5378 Miles, which he all penned with Gary Go and John McDaid from Snow Patrol.
Whether he'd sign up with JayZ or not, the latter truly believed in the One Direction member's capabilities. He also said "Harry doesn't need any help with exposure; everybody in the world knows who he is."
Styles' is yet to confirm if he's interested or not.
