    POP BFFs! 13 Reasons We LOVE The Friendship Between Kanye West & Jay-Z

    Even though Yeezy and Jay-Z are rap icons in their own right, we love them the most when they are together. Here are 13 reasons why we LOVE the 'Watch The Throne' duo.

    1. Jay Z and Kanye West Tidal Event 2015

      1. When your BFF buys a multi-million dollar music streaming service, you better turn up to the launch.

      Kanye stood by Jay's side when he launched Tidal early in 2015 - thats what besties are for.

    2. Jay Z and Kanye West hug

      2. Even if you are two of the coolest cats on the planet, there is always time for a bro hug.

      Why haven't we ever got a Kanye hug? Yeezy, if you are reading this…we need hugs too. He's not reading this, is he?

    3. Kim Kardashian Beyonce Jay Z and Kanye West

      3. They totally made their wives BFFs too.

      Kim and Queen Bey are just as good friends as their hubbies, look at those happy faces.

    4. Jay Z Reaction To Kanye West Interrupting Beck

      4. They are ALWAYS at the ready incase you are about to make a mistake you'll definitely regret.

      You just know that if Kanye had lingered one second more, Jay was going to rip open that shirt, revealing a superman outfit and literally fly Yeezy out of the roof.

    5. Jay-Z Glastonbury performing

      5. Jay and 'Ye are both the ULTIMATE trendsetters when it comes to live music.

      The rap duo are both official Glastonbury headliners with Kayne following in best friend Jay's footsteps.

    6. Kanye West Kissing North

      6. As well as both being rap icons, they are also the sweetest Dads in the music industry.

      They may rap about women and money but at the end of the day, there is ONLY ONE thing they care about the most and that's their little princesses.

    7. Pharell Williams, Jay Z and Kanye West

      7. It doesn't matter who you are, you DESPERATELY want to be in their gang.

      Okay, we know Pharrell is 250% cooler than us, but surely we could fit in too? We'll bring Kerplunk and our copy of Pitch Perfect, rappers like those things, right? Picture: Getty

    8. Kanye West & Jay-Z

      8. They only went a made a bloomin' album together didn't they!

      If you haven't had a listen to this yet then where have you been?! The joint venture was released in 2011 and is still one our favourite collaboration albums EVER. Picture: PA

    9. Kanye West live at The NBA All-Star Game

      9. These two are so close that they're not afraid to have a falling out here and there.

      When Jay Z didn't attend Kimye's wedding, the 'All Day' superstar cut Jay's name out of the lyrics to 'Cold' at his Bonnaroo performance…grrr that would really grind our gears.

    10. Kanye West Jay Z After Beyonce announces pregnancy

      10. They shared one of the cutest moments ever captured in the history of television.

      After Beyonce revealed she was pregnant on stage at the 2011 VMAs, the camera cut to Jay Z & Kanye and their joint reaction was ADORABLE.

    11. Taylor Swift, Jay Z, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian

      11. Even when surrounded by beautiful women all they care about is each other.

      Its only when you look at this picture closely you realise that neither Jay or Kanye even realise Taylor and Kim are actually there. Picture: Getty

    12. Jay Z, Beyonce, Kanye, Tidal Advert

      12. Their facial expressions have DEFINITELY started to synchronise.

      In fact, we think they are slowly turning into the same person. Forget Kimye, it's all about KanJay.

    13. Jay-Z and Kanye West perform

      13. At the end of the day, we couldn't imagine one without the other.

      When they are in the zone, they are IN the zone. These two really are legends amongst men. Long live Jay and Kanye!
