Remember where you heard it folks! Apparently the highly anticipated collaborative album by Jay-Z and Kanye West is set for a surprise release this coming Monday (4th July).
According to reports several media outlets, including MTV and ALL HIP HOP, are buzzing with the news that the album release was imminent with the rumour being that ‘Watch The Throne’ will be out in digital only format as of Monday .
Although not confirmed one highly regarded insider is quoted as saying: “I am hearing one of the craziest rumours in a minute. Word on the block is that Jay-Z and Yeezy are going to release “Watch The Throne” on MONDAY as a digital ONLY release.”
“I may add Kanye and Jay have said absolutely nothing about the date of release even though they released ‘H.A.M.’ earlier this year. This rumour of Monday is in tune with the previous 4th of July rumours . But, the digital-only part is new.”
The album had previously been rumoured to be coming out in January and then again in March but these latest rumours appear to be more solidly sourced and could provide fans with a sooner than hoped for look at an album which could provide the soundtrack to a summer .
In October last year Kanye West said: “We’re going to the south of France at the end of this month, just to record new ideas,” he said. “We’ll probably be done with the album in a day or whatever.”
He added: “We’ve done about five [songs] so far…but we got some more. But think about it, it’s really easy; he only has to think of 10 verses”.
