Jay Z First Album Release
Posted By admin On 07/06/19Beyonce and Jay Z surprised fans with the release of their joint album Everything Is Love and the music video for their new track Apes**t, which was filmed at the Louvre in Paris and came out. Jay-Z's most acclaimed album of this period was The Blueprint (2001), which would later pop up on several music critics' lists of the best albums of the decade.
123,000 units.Everything Is Love gives Jay-Z his seventeenth top 10 album and Beyoncé her twelfth, including records she was a part of when Destiny’s Child was still together.
Rapper XXXTentacion is back inside the top 10 this week with his most recent album ?, which bolts back up the ranking after his death. The title owned the Billboard 200 earlier this year, and it hasn’t drifted too far since then, and now it’s back at No. 3, followed closely by his previous full-length 17, which has returned to No. 7 (it peaked in the runner-up slot in 2017).
Fellow young hip-hop musician Post Malone comes next with his recent chart leader Beerbongs & Bentleys, which still hasn’t slipped outside the top five since it first arrived.
Another popular rapper, Nas, sees his new album Nasir, his first proper release in six years, start at No. 5 on the ranking with 77,000 equivalent units. The semi-self-titled effort is his twelfth top 10.
The fourth and final new entry inside the top 10 this time around comes from pop singer Christina Aguilera, who has also returned from a lengthier-than-usual hiatus. The powerhouse vocalist’s new album Liberation kicks off at No. 6 with 68,000 equivalent units, almost all of which are pure sales. The album marks her seventh appearance inside the highest tier on the tally, and though none of the four songs released off the record in advance of its drop made it to the Hot 100, her fans were clearly thrilled to pick up what she’d been working on.
The last three slots inside the top 10 this frame are occupied by Juice WRLD’s Goodbye & Good Riddance at No. 8, Cardi B’s Invasion of Privacy at No. 9 and country star Jason Aldean’s Rearview Town at No. 10.
Jay-Z is back, and he is vulnerable. But for now, his secrets are exclusive to Tidal.

This veteran Brooklyn rapper, 47, ended weeks of speculation near midnight on Thursday, releasing “4:44,” his 13th studio album, as a digital exclusive on that streaming service, which he bought in 2015. The album — Jay-Z’s first since “Magna Carta .. Holy Grail” in 2013 — features 10 intensely personal and provocative tracks that, yes, include a few references to the marriage-baring “Lemonade” album by his wife, Beyoncé, and the recent birth of their twins.
As part of a deal with Sprint, the cellphone carrier, which bought a one-third stake in Tidal this year, “4:44” was made available only to those who had subscribed to Tidal before the album’s release, along with existing Sprint customers. Tidal, which trails in the streaming race dominated by Spotify and Apple Music, has relied largely on splashy exclusives from its artist partners to encourage sign-ups, making itself the first — and, in some cases, only — place to hear new music from Kanye West, Rihanna and Beyoncé, whose “Lemonade” has remained a Tidal exclusive since its release in April 2016.

— Mark Ronson (@MarkRonson) June 30, 2017For “4:44,” there was a populist twist to the exclusive release: The album also debuted in its entirety at midnight across 160 pop-, rhythm- and urban-formatted radio stations owned by the broadcast conglomerate iHeartMedia, and it will continue to be played all day Friday on select stations.
In a statement, Jay-Z, who has pulled much of his catalog from rival streaming services, called the release strategy for “4:44” a “perfect storm of sharing music with fans.”
Whether the album leads to more Tidal subscribers or just more online piracy, it is sure to be a talker. Already, the lyrics are being dissected and pored over across social media and beyond, as listeners try to decode which details come from the real lives of one of the most famous (and famously private) duos in entertainment. Twitter said before noon on Friday that there had been more than 810,000 posts about Jay-Z and his album since it was released, plus another 230,000 about Beyoncé.
Coming in the wake of “Lemonade,” an ambitious multimedia project that was simultaneously Beyoncé’s most personal and most political work to date, “4:44” finds Jay-Z in a similar mode, weaving confessional and autobiographical songwriting with big-picture perspectives on black life in the United States.
The opening track, “Kill Jay-Z,” sets the tone, explicitly addressing the years of tabloid reports and fan-fueled rumors that have made up the Jay-Z mythology, including the marital infidelity that seemed to fuel “Lemonade” and the infamous elevator incident in which he was attacked by Beyoncé’s younger sister, Solange, after the Met Ball:
You egged Solange on
Knowin’ all along, all you had to say you was wrong
You almost went Eric Benét
Let the baddest girl in the world get away
(Mr. Benét, an R&B singer who was previously married to the actress Halle Berry, has already responded on Twitter: “Hey yo #Jayz! Just so ya know, I got the baddest girl in the world as my wife..like right now!”)

That song, Jay-Z said in an interview that aired on iHeartMedia, is “about killing off the ego, so we can have this conversation in a place of vulnerability and honesty.” (Another sample lyric: “You can’t heal what you never reveal.”)
His relationship with Beyoncé and their children is also the subject of the album’s raw title track, which Jay-Z called “the crux of the album”:
“Look, I apologize/often womanize/took for my child to be born/see through a woman’s eyes,” he raps, adding later: “I suck at love/I think I need a do-over.”
Jay Z The Black Album
“I woke up, literally, at 4:44 in the morning, 4:44 a.m., to write this song,” Jay-Z, who recently became the first rapper in the Songwriters Hall of Fame, said of the track. “It’s the title track because it’s such a powerful song, and I just believe one of the best songs I’ve ever written.”

The album was produced entirely by No I.D., a longtime Jay-Z collaborator who is also known for his work with Mr. West and Vince Staples. Guest performers include Frank Ocean and Damian Marley, along with subtle flourishes from Beyoncé (“Family Feud”); The-Dream (“Marcy Me”); Jay-Z’s mother, Gloria Carter (“Smile”); and his and Beyoncé’s daughter Blue Ivy (who asks, “Daddy, what’s a will?” on “Legacy”).
In keeping with the couple’s extended turn toward activism, “4:44” looks outward as well as inward. The track “The Story of O.J.,” which comes with a potentially incendiary video on Tidal directed by Mark Romanek and Jay-Z, is about “having a plan, how we’re gonna push this forward,” the rapper said on the radio. “We all make money, and then we all lose money, as artists especially. But how, when you have some type of success, to transform that into something bigger.” (“Generational wealth/that’s the key,” he raps on the album closer “Legacy,” repeating a recurring theme.)
The black-and-white animated video for “The Story of O.J.” plays with racial caricatures and historical allusions to slavery, the Ku Klux Klan, segregation, lynching, the Black Panthers and more, all while turning lyrically on the assertion by O.J. Simpson that “I’m not black, I’m O.J.” (The song samples “Four Women,” by Nina Simone, which tells a story of racism via female characters with differing skin tones.)

“Financial freedom my only hope,” Jay-Z raps, stressing the importance of investment — in his case, in real estate and art — and once again bringing the conversation back to Tidal. “Y’all think it’s bougie/I’m like, it’s fine,” he adds. “But I’m tryin’ to give you a million dollars’ worth of game for $9.99.”
