Jay Electronica Releases Joint Album ‘A Written Testimony’ with Jay-Z: Stream

UPDATE 4: Jay Electronica and Jay-Z’s joint album A Written Testimony is now out everywhere. See the full production credits here.

Kendrick Lamar Shakes Up The Super Bowl With Bold Drake Diss And Surprise Guests

Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl 59 halftime performance was nothing short of legendary, leaving fans buzzing with surprise cameos and bold moments that took his long-running feud with Drake to new heights. Kicking off with an unreleased song snippet and followed by “Squabble Up” from his latest album GNX, Kendrick immediately set the tone for a game-changing performance. Fans eagerly waited to see if Kendrick would play his diss track Not Like Us, especially with Drake's ongoing lawsuit against him and his label for defamation and harassment. Lamar's performance included an unexpected appearance by SZA and a quirky cameo from Serena Williams, along with Samuel L. Jackson’s comedic interruptions, all building the suspense around the Drake drama. In the middle of his performance, Kendrick turned up the heat, looking straight into the camera and directly addressing Drake with his famous lyrics, “I heard you like them young," as fans held their breath. Despite the tension, Kendrick censored himself when it came time to call Drake a "certified lover boy" and avoided saying “pedophile,” which had been widely speculated. Social media lit up with mixed reactions, with some fans mocking the performance as a "mid mashup" and others noting the intense hostility toward Drake. With the hashtag #KendrickBowl trending, it’s clear that Kendrick’s performance was a cultural moment that pushed boundaries—but has he gone too far, or is this just another chapter in hip-hop history? Only time will tell, and Drake has yet to respond.

UPDATE 3: Jay Electronica will be going live with the album on Instagram and YouTube at 11PM EST (note: the live stream has ended but you can replay the album via YouTube).

Previous story:

When Jay Electronica tweeted a few weeks back that his debut album was done and would be out in 40 days, the world had more than enough reason to be skeptical. However, there were some signs that this time could be the time, like Hov liking the tweets.

Then, earlier this week, TIDAL announced that they were doing three listening parties for the album in LA, New York and New Orleans. Now, it looks like the album could be out tonight, earlier than the expected release date of March 18th.

Just a few minutes ago, Apple Music tweeted out the track for the album, now called A Written Testimony. It’s in Arabic, but fans have taken to Google translate for images to get a rough translation. You can view both Apple’s tweet and the rough translation below. Either way, it looks like Travis Scott and The-Dream appear, with JAY-Z looking likely on ‘The Shiny Suit Theory’, but unlisted. Perhaps him not being credited on there means there are more songs with him on?
