Cyhi the Prince is confirming to MTV News that the joint album between Kanye West & Jay-Z “Watch the Throne” which was supposed to be released back in March is finished and ready to go. MTV themselves speculate that the album may be released on Monday, along with Rolling Stone, The Source. AllHipHop is reporting that in order to avoid leaks the album will be released only digitally. VH1 is reporting that a source close to Jay-Z is saying that the album is not going to be released on July 4. The rappers may have moved the released of the album after releasing the disappointing single ‘H.A.M.’.
