Remember that HUGE announcement Jay-Z promised in conjunction with Samsung? Well just in cased you missed it last night during game 5 of the NBA Finals, here it is. Check the video below...
"We don't have any rules. Everyone's trying to figure it out," Jay says as a ringing, piano-driven instrumental plays in the background. "We need to write the new rules. (Billboard)"
That's right a 3 minute ad allowing Jay to announce his new album Magna Carta Holy Grail, which is due out July 4th. Where does Samsung fit into all of this? Samsung is launching an app on June 24, which will allow users of the Galaxy S III, Galaxy S 4 and the Galaxy Note II to download the album for free on Independence Day at 12:01am. It has been stated and pretty much confirmed in tweets from Hova himself that Samsung has already purchased one million copies of the album. As seen in the commercial super producers Rick Rubin, Swizz Beatz, Timbaland, and Pharrell Williams are all involved in the project. Could this also may serve as an answer to the questions raised by pics of Jay in the studio with the likes of Nas, Raekwon, Justin Timberlake, and Drake? Time will tell when the "Holy Grail" is discovered...
UPDATE:
Magna Carta Holy Grail will be available on July 7th for those of us who aren't apart of the Samsung Galaxy community.
