Stylin’ on ‘Em: Beyonce, Jay-Z Celebrate ‘Magna Carta’ Album Release

Beyonce took a break from her packed “Mrs. Carter World Tour” schedule to celebrate the release of her husband Jay-Z’s latest album “Magna Carta Holy Grail.”

The power couple danced the night away at the Samsung-sponsored party at Liberty Warehouse in Brooklyn with other celeb friends including Timbaland, Nick Cannon, Tyson Beckford, Raekwon, and Adrienne Bailon.

Beyonce looked gorgeous in a white eyelet jacket, white blouse and denim short-shorts that showed off her toned legs. Hubby Jay-Z had a black-and-white theme going with white sneakers, black denim, white T-shirt and black jacket.

There’s a lot for the Carters to celebrate. Jay-Z’s album has already “sold” 1 million before hitting record stores July 9 and managed to change the rules set by the Recording Industry Association of America on counting digital album sales.

According to theverge.com:

“The reality is that how fans consume music is changing, the music business is changing as labels and artists partner with a breathtaking array of new technology services, and the industry’s premier award recognizing artists’ commercial achievement should similarly keep pace.”

Timbaland, who attended the party and produced more than 90 percent of the album, calls it Jay-Z’s best work…or maybe his best work.

“This is the best Jay-Z album thus far… I told [Jay-Z], all The Blueprint albums, those were good, but this is your first big album for the new millennium.”

Beyonce and Jay-Z continue to set the bar high in their respective lanes – proving to be a true power couple.
