On Monday, Jay-Z announced that his 13th album would be released on June 30. Normally, that would not be news around these parts, but Hov went and gave the record a very Syracuse Orange-adjacent name -- 4:44. So now it’s very important for us.
First and foremost, though, did he ask the committee to use the number? If not, this isn’t a sanctioned 44 event. Assuming he did, however, what Syracuse-related song titles might be on the yet-to-be-released track list?
We took some guesses...
“Silent G”
Former Syracuse star and current Detroit Pistons player Michael Gbinije signed with Jay’s Roc Nation last year, so this one’s a natural starter.
