Jay Z's elaborate vinyl release of his 2013 album Magna Carta Holy Grail is finally seeing its release via Jack White's Third Man Records. In addition to the complex two-LP gatefold packaging, it's been revealed that the new version of Hova's 12th studio album comes complete with a previously unheard track, hidden in the record's packaging.
The unreleased new Jay Z song can be found sandwiched in between the cardboard on the back cover of Third Man Records' Magna Carta Holy Grail, Diffuser.fm reports.
Few details are known about the hidden new Jay Z track, except that it's embedded in the album cover and must be extracted by fans willing to cut it out. And, because this vinyl was being led by White, the new song arrives on a flexi glass postcard disc to be played on your turntable. But as for what the song is... well, you have to listen to it to find out.
"Most exciting about this double LP is certainly the concealed postcard flexi disc hidden within the back cover and only accessible to those willing to take a knife to the iconic packaging. Once freed of its casing, this flexi disc plays a super-secret hidden track. You'll just have to hear it for yourself, because we sure don't plan to ruin the mystery of it here," Third Man announced on its YouTube page.
The intricate vinyl edition of Magna Carta Holy Grail is available at Third Man Records' website now, and it's due to be rolled out in record stores across the country in coming weeks.
