      Word on the street is that Jay-Z is prepping a new album to be released on November 6th. The album shares its title with the upcoming flick American Gangster, which features Denzel Washington, Idris Elba, T.I., and Common. According to XXL Editor-in-Chief, Elliot Wilson, the album will be led by a Pharrell-produced buzz single titled “Blue Magic.”

 

      Hov told the New York Times that seeing American Gangster helped him construct the direction of his new album. “It was like I was watching the film, and putting it on pause, and giving a back story to the story.”
