Jay-Z has finally dropped his 13th studio album, "4:44", after announcing that he would take the studio effort on the road this fall. The highly-anticipated album is currently available exclusively for Tidal and Sprint users.
There are ten tracks in the album which include "Smile" featuring the rapper's mother Gloria Carter, "Caught Their Eyes" featuring Frank Ocean and "Bam" featuring Damian Marley. Beyonce Knowles has also lent her voice for "Family Feud", which references "Becky with the good hair" from Beyonce's song "Becky" off her "Lemonade" album. Other tracks include "Kill Jay Z", "The Story of O.J.", "4:44", "Moonlight", "Marcy Me" and "Legacy".
Although fans are very excited for the new album, they're not happy with the fact that it's currently only available for people who signed up for Tidal before the album's release. However, Variety reports that "4:44" will be available on Apple Music, iTunes and other major streaming services after a week of exclusivity on Tidal. It is also said that the album will be available on CD and vinyl.
Jay-Z previously unveiled an intriguing trailer titled "Kill Jay Z" for the album. The star-studded trailer featured Mahershala Ali as a boxer and Danny Glover as his coach. Lupita Nyong'o was also believed to be one of the featured stars although she didn't appear in the trailer. The trailer serves to preview Jay-Z's new song called "Adnis".
