4:44

by Jay-Z

4:44 cover art

Serving largely as a direct, apologetic response to Beyoncé's 'Lemonade', the rap mogul delivers his most mature and emotionally naked album to date. Produced entirely by No I.D., the record utilizes immaculate, soul-heavy samples to frame Jay-Z's reflections on infidelity, generational wealth, and his legacy. It was universally praised as a masterful, dignified late-career triumph.
