Swizz Beatz Talks Jay-Z’s Magna Carta Holy Grail

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

While we continue to wait to hear some music off of this shit, we may as well get some insight on what to expect. One of the things we do know about Jay-Z's upcoming LP, Magna Carta Holy Grail, is that based off that initial commercialSwizz Beatz seems to be one of a handful of producers playing a role in the project. Swizz recently sat down with the homie Mikey Fresh over at Vibe to shed some light on the highly anticipated album. Swizz doesn't divulge all that much information, but more so praises Jay for his innovative nature and for how ahead of its' time this project is. Swizz also makes a point to clarify that everything you see in those Samsung commercials is real, and that was essentially the vibe of the sessions during the album's recording, there just happened to be cameras in the room. No dimes are dropped about features or what songs Swizz produced, so I suppose the anticipation will continue to build. July 4th can't come soon enough.
