"The phone is at the forefront of the future"

The biggest and most hyped music news of July 2013 seems to be the new alliance between Jay-Z and Samsung. This deal is very good for Jay-Z as Samsung has bought 1 million copies of Jay-Z's new album, Magna Carta Holy Grail. (Warning - Magna Carta Holy Grail begins with Justin Timberlake singing. And he's singing in a very high register. This is a hip hop album? A hip hop album that does not begin with a skit?) Jay-Z received $5 million for the 1 million copies. Magna Carta Holy Grail will be free for the first 1 million Samsung phone users who download the app.Articles about the Jay-Z/Samsung alliance are found in...
