Rumours abound that the Kanye and Jay-Z collaborative album ‘Watch The Throne’ will be rush-released on Monday.
The reputable site AllHipHop has heard that the album will drop Monday as a digital-only release.
They suggest that the album is finished and the short-notice release is to prevent leaks, which happened to both Kanye’s My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and Beyonce’s recent 4 album.
The first single ‘H.A.M’ was released with almost no notice as well. Kanye tweeted that it would be the first single on January 6 and it emerged five days later.
He also tweeted later in January that the album would come out in “Summer” and All HipHop note that previous rumours had suggested a July 4 release date, which is next Monday.
It has been a little over two weeks since Odd Future member and producer Frank Ocean tweeted that he was flying out to work with Jay-Z and Kanye but albums can be turned around in no time with modern tech and digital releases.
So we’ll just have to cross our fingers throughout the weekend.
