Jay Z will release his new album 4:44 as a Tidal exclusive on June 30th. The LP is the rapper's first since 2013's Magna Carta Holy Grail.

A clip from that film premiered Father's Day night accompanied by a snippet of a new Jay Z track titled "Adnis."
"Letter to my dad that I never wrote / Speeches I prepared that I never spoke / Words on a paper that I never read / Proses never penned / They stayed in my head," Jay Z, who welcomed newborn twins this week, says on the track.
On Monday morning, telecommunications company Sprint, which has a partnership with Tidal, formally announced the impending arrival of 4:44, the first in "a series of exclusives" between the rapper's streaming service and the cell phone giant.
While 4:44 will premiere on Tidal, it's unclear how long the album will remain exclusive to the streaming service, or if a physical release is planned.
Jay Z will hit the road this summer in support of 4:44, including stops at festivals like his Made in America, Austin City Limits and Meadows.
