Jay-Z And Beyoncé ‘Magna Carta Holy Grail’: ‘Open Letter’ Singer And Wife Collaborate On At Least Two Songs For New Album

Jay-Z's new album "Magna Carta Holy Grail" doesn't drop until July 4, but more and more details are being made public. At least two songs on the album will feature Jay-Z's wife, Beyoncé.

A song titled "BBC" will feature music legends Beyoncé, Justin Timberlake, Pharrell and Timbaland, DigitalSpy.com reports.

Thus far, the lyrics to "Holy Grail," "Heaven," "Oceans" and "Part II (On the Run)" have been released ahead of the July 4 drop date for the album to Samsung users, MTV.com reports.

On Thursday, Jay-Z released the lyrics to "Part II (On the Run)," a musical sequel to 2003's "'03 Bonnie & Clyde," which featured vocals from Beyoncé, MTV.com reports

The song's lyrics seem to profess his love for Queen Bey, despite their different backgrounds. Jay-Z also seems grateful for Beyoncé believing in him and never doubting his potential: "She fell in love with the bad guy/ The bad guy/ What you doing with them rap guys/ Them rap guys/ They ain't see potential in me girl/ But you see it if it's you and me against the world/ Then so be," the lyrics read.

Jay-Z and Beyoncé just welcomed baby daughter Blue Ivy Carter in January 2012.

Swizz Beatz and Nas will also appear on the track, which will be included on the star's upcoming 12th studio album.

Jay-Z partnered with Samsung for the release of "Magna Carta," The Huffington Post reports. Those who own Samsung mobile devices can download an app to have access to Jay-Z's album before anyone else. Samsung pre-ordered one million copies of "Magna Carta" to distribute to the company's users.
