Kingdom Come (Jay-Z album)
Untitled | |
---|---|
Kingdom Come is the upcoming album from Def Jam president and Roc-A-Fella Records co-founder and current owner Jay-Z. It is scheduled to be released on November 21, 2006. The title is inspired by a DC Comics miniseries called Kingdom Come, about Superman returning from retirement to save the world. The album will mark the end to Jay-Z's self-declared retirement. Production will be supplied by Kanye West, Just Blaze, Timbaland, Dr. Dre and The Neptunes, and guest appearances are scheduled for West as well as Coldplay's lead singer Chris Martin. An appearance by former rival Nas is also expected, following the recent signing of the Queens rapper to Def Jam, which further promoted the truce made between the two rappers at Jay-Z's "I Declare War" Concert. Likewise, Jay-Z is scheduled to appear on Nas' new album entitled Hip-Hop Is Dead. The title track, produced by Just Blaze, samples "Super Freak" by the late Rick James.[1][2]
