Jay-Z Forces RIAA To Change Policy
Old rules were made to be broken. In light of Samsung purchasing a million digital copies of Jay-Z’s Magna Carta Holy Grail, the RIAA has decided to change their certification policy. In blog post, RIAA Director Liz Kennedy says:
We think it’s time for the RIAA – and Gelfand, Rennert & Feldman – to align our digital song and album certification requirements. That’s why today we are officially updating this rule in our G&P Program requirements. Going forward, sales of albums in digital format will become eligible on the release date, while sales of albums in physical format will still become eligible for certification 30 days after the release date.
This is truly ground breaking. Instead of waiting a month for a gold or platinum certification, an artist can a solicit a Fortune 500 company to buy their album wholesale in one shot. For an artist like Jay-Z, this deal is perfect. He cuts out the middleman and gets paid upfront. Not to mention, no leaks neither. Don’t be surpised to see more deals like this in the future. ******** with rap if you, mutha****as.

damn, guess he's doing this to stop future leaks of albums. this is a big move.
Not like I;m buying the physical cd and the cover/book will bother me.
Will sit on the screen of my phone/iPod just fine as is.
seen Dream Hampton's personal opinion on twitter about the album and she said its top 3.... she had it RD, TBA, MCHG, I believe....
thats not how I rank his albums personally but if she put it up there then it gotta be legit at the end of the day... cant see it coming out and being on the other end of the catalog
For me, top 3 right now is RD, BP, AG... followed by TBA
I don't mind the usage of the term holy grail. However, his nickname has always been offensive, and his lyrics on Heaven are too far for me ...

The same Dream Hampton that said Nas had ghost writers?
Well see to me, I didn't really care about the term Holy Grail either.
But the thing is, from the "Hova" nickname, to the Hoiy Grail name, to blacking out the religious references in his recent lyrics, to the putting the eye inside of the Roc, certain depictions in his videos, to now dropping an album with this title on a sunday...
I mean, I by no means am a religious fanatic by any stretch. But at what point does it just become blatant disrespect of religion?
If people aren't religious that's fine, no problem with that. However, it appears that as his career as progress, he's making a point to disrespect the religion and that isn't cool at all.
Even though I may be sounding like a YouTube conspiracy theorist right now, I'm not making any conspiracy theories at all. I have no idea what he's conspiring, if anything. However, my point is he's become increasingly obsessed it seems with overtly disrespecting religion and the faith, and that is wrong.
Lol.
It's just an album cover.
But even for those religious types I could see where the issue creeps in, like what puts these dudes in the frame of mind to mock someone's religion?The Illuminati isn't welcoming a black man in, much less a crack dealing high school drop out who made his money through rap music.
At this point Jay-Z and Kanye just toy with people, because that idea is so laughable to anyone with an ounce of intelligence.
For anyone to suggest that shows how little they know about the illuminati.
So you make a couple of hundred million and all of a sudden you're on the same level of people who's families have had wealth for generations deciding the worlds fate. It's just that easy, huh. So it's easier to get in a fraternity or the masons than the illuminati?
Yes, he's probably atheist, but illumanti

Of course. CD or Vinyl whichever I can find.I'm saying though. The music is whats important to me.Lol.

For those that care about album covers, are yall "buying" the album on the 7th?

So the illuminati wouldnt let a black man in, you think. It was once believed that the government wouldnt allow a black president. Now you see a rumored ex drug dealer named Hov strutting the halls of the white house with our current black president. What is outside of the realm of possibility here? Fact of the matter is, Jay is on another level as far as networking...and is HUGE business. Its deeper than rap.The Illuminati isn't welcoming a black man in, much less a crack dealing high school drop out who made his money through rap music.

You realize that if Jay-Z is actually in the Illuminati, he would be a low (and I mean LOW) level pawn? Heck, that "current black president" in the White House that people think is so powerful, is clearly a pawn himself.So the illuminati wouldnt let a black man in, you think.
