Jay-Z Actually Suffers A Setback

Jay-Z has had a busy few days preparing for the release of his 12th studio album, Magna Carta Holy Grail. In addition to the series of Samsung ads and the mobile app, he's been getting creative on the promotional side of his album. 

He revealed the cover of the album in England, next to the Salisbury Cathedral where one of the four original Magna Carta documents was held. Hov has been releasing lyrics for his tracks for the last couple of weeks and released two more today; one called "SomewhereInAmerica" and another called "Nickles & Dimes." 

His final promotional tool was a concert scheduled on Monday, but that has been cancelled, for now, due to safety and crowd concerns. The album drops tomorrow for Samsung users and on July 9th for everyone else.
