Jay-Z Announces Magna Carter Holy Grail Release Date (Video)

Jay-Z announced that his next album, Magna Carter Holy Grail, will come out on July 4 with a Samsung commercial that aired during the NBA Finals. Jigga recently partnered with Samsung for a rumored $20 million and this commercial, which also featured Timbaland, Pharrell and Rick Rubin, is the first product of the deal. Interesting that Kanye and Just Blaze, two major influences on his musical renaissance, weren't involved in the ad. Does that mean they're not on the album? Or did Kanye just get too expensive?
