Jay-Z fans must have spent the last week or so on pins and needles, what with the countless videos out daily teasing the release of the music mogul’s next album, “Magna Carta Holy Grail.”

Now, the same fans get a fresh taste of the material included on it, as Jay has released the first single off it. Check it out in full above, but *please note that some discretion is recommended because it contains language that might offend.

Called “Holy Grail,” it’s a collaboration with Justin Timberlake, though, judging by how much JT sings on it (compared to Jay, who only “pops in” midway and is gone shortly afterwards), I’d say it’s the other way around.

“Holy Grail” was written by The-Dream and produced by Timbaland and, as of now, reactions to it among fans remain divided.

Listen to the new song and tell me what you think of it, in the comments section below.
