Jay Z 'Magna Carta Holy Grail' Album: Listen To 'Oceans' & 'BBC' [AUDIO DOWNLOAD]
Jay-Z's Magna Carta Holy Grail became available only for 1 million Samsung users on Thursday, but two tracks from the album also hit the web.
One song includes Oceans featuring singer Frank Ocean.
"This water mixed in my blood, this water tells my story, this water knows it all, go ahead and spill some champagne, in the water," Ocean sings on the song.
Jay-Z spoke briefly about the song's meaning in a promotional video posted on YouTube on June 26.
"It's like me now, no matter where I go in life and the things that I accomplish, you walk in that room, your past still comes in with you," he says in the footage.
Another song that hit the web is BBC which features Justin Timberlake, Beyonce, Swizz Beatz, Pharrell and Timbaland.
"What you know about going out, head west, Maybach 3 TV's all up in the headrest," Hov raps on the song.
In another promotional video that Jay-Z released on June 16, he explained what fans can expect from Magna Carta Holy Grail.
"Pretty much what the album is, it's this duality of how do you navigate through this whole thing, through success, through the failures, through all this and remain yourself?" he said.
The 43-year-old had also released a more emotional video talking about a song he made for his daughter Blue Ivy Carter.
"It deals with [the fact that] my pop left when I was young. He didn't teach me how to be a man nor how to raise a child -- or treat a woman," he said about the song titled Jay-Z Blue. "The two things I need, I don't have ... and I have a daughter. It's [about] the paranoia of not being a great dad."
The album will be available to the general public on July 7. It will be the follow-up to Jay-Z's The Blueprint 3 released in 2009. That album went No. 1 on Billboard.
