This is so gonna be AMAZING! I love Bey and Bruno (two of my fave singers atm :o) and when it comes to male rappers Jay and Kanye would be top 5, so I'm naturally excited for so many great artists on one track! :D Should be huge with all these names on :D

Kanye West and Jay-Z strike gold on the metallic cover of Watch the Throne designed by Givenchy Creative Director Riccardo Tisci. The long-awaited collaborative project from the hip-hop kings has been plagued by rumors, but the artwork was officially unveiled on WatchtheThrone.com on Sunday night along with a pre-order link.

Two versions will be available, a standard and a deluxe, but the release date is still unknown. Ryan Seacrest mentioned on his radio show that a new single, heavily rumored to be called "Lift Off" featuring Beyoncé and Bruno Mars, would arrive by July 11 with the album in August. While there are tracklistings floating around, nothing has been confirmed by Def Jam at this time.

No Bruno Mars:

 

Standout tracks included a pair of songs that feature Odd Future crooner Frank Ocean. Jay-Z relayed that he reached out to Ocean after hearing his Nostalgia, Ultra mixtape and wanted him to contribute to his next solo album. After their initial work went well — Ocean appears on one of two songs Jay-Z revealed he has recorded for the solo LP — Hova invited the crooner to get down on Watch the Throne too. The only other guest on the album is Beyoncé, who appears on the resounding "Lift Off", which sounds like it was tailor-made to be performed in large stadiums.

MTV

I wouldn't have minded Bruno on it, but on the bright side Queen B gets more of a chance to shine! :D

No Bruno Mars is good news. And songs featuring Frank Ocean?!

Maaan I need this album.
