TIDAL is really putting the screws on Jay-Z fans that don’t use their exclusive streaming service that has teamed up with mobile wireless carrier, Sprint. Many of you music fans that refuse to sign up for TIDAL because of the higher monthly cost are in luck. HOV is making his latest album free for everybody by visiting 444.TIDAL.com. The site requires your email and the promotional code “SPRINT” to unlock the magic to the ROCAFELLA nation in the form of a FLAC or MP3 download.

“4:44” is a lot deeper than just an apology letter to Beyonce. There’s the beef with Kanye West; an ex-collaborator and one time confidant that helped pull strings at the inception of TIDAL. This time things maybe more than just posturing, specifically with Kanye West parting ways due to money issues.

Then there’s the whole component of “4:44” that delves into a very personal part of Jay’s personal life: the sexuality of his mother Gloria Carter. Hov’s mother comes out as a lesbian in the track, “Smile.”

If all of that wasn’t enough, there’s the birth of his twins with Beyonce named Rumi and Sir Carter. To be honest though, it was going to be pretty tough to up Blue Ivy.

Everything is covered on the new album from cheating, Solange and the elevator incident and all of the above. In many ways, “4:44,” is the type of catharsis the notorious New York artist needed to put all of the drama to rest. As of now, there’s only a handful of dates to speak of, however, that will soon change. Jay announced that a fall tour is in the works with dates to be announced soon.
