Not like we haven’t already heard half of the songs off of Jay-Z’s Blueprint 3 Album in rotation on Hot 97 ALLL day (sarcasm), but Jay-Z has given MTV the official rights to showcase his album The Blueprint 3 days before it hits stores via The Leak. Jay Says:

I’m excited for people to hear the album . I’m very proud of the work I’ve done, so enjoy it.”

MTV.com reports that you can hear the entire Blueprint 3 on Tuesday (September 1) on The Leak. Hov said a few weeks ago that his main intention was to keep the album focused on the art of music.  Wouldn’t you think Jay is going to lose money by allowing his fans to download his music online? That’s really the last worry in Jigga man’s mind because according to recent reports, Jay and B are racking so much money their great great grand children are going to be rolling in dough.

According to Str8nyc.com, Jay and B are on their way to becoming the first African-American BILLIONAIRE couple in the entertainment business.

Beyonce made $85 million last year and Jay-Z’s wealth fluctuates between $400-$500 million (on a career basis). Beyonce’s career earnings (nearly $300 million) are on par with Mariah Carey. This is impressive for Beyonce because Mariah makes the lion’s share of her money rom songwriting and publishing and Beyonce doesn’t.

Like Chris Rock would say in “In Living Color”.. “GOOD LAWD THATS A LOTTA MONEY!”
