After a unique and somewhat confusing marketing campaign, JAY-Z dropped his 4:44 album on the world Thursday night/Friday morning, and social media can’t get enough of it.
The album touches on a number of things, including him confirming the infidelity Beyoncé exposed on Lemonade, that infamous elevator incident with Solange, his relationship with Kanye and much more.
RELATED: Eric Benét Claps Back at JAY-Z on Twitter for “4:44” Diss
From people praising the lyrical content to making jokes about how the album makes them feel while listening, Twitter is LIT with reactions and memes about Hov’s 13th studio album.
Check out some of our faves below:
The general consensus on Twitter: “Wait, so JAY-Z really did cheat on Beyoncé and Lemonade wasn’t just an album?!”
Everyone all surprised tonight like oh wow Lemonade was all true??? DaFuk did you think it was???

Jay confirmed he cheated & admitted he was wrong & apologized for the pain he caused. I can respect that!
— Chihiro Ogino (@WickedBeaute) June 30, 2017
Jay really said "you matured faster than me I wasn't ready" when Bey was 21 and he was at least 33. Niggas are awful.

And he was also really open about his relationship with his mother and her sexuality:
Jay said his mother is a lesbian and came out in support of her same-sex relationship. Rap really has grown up http://pic.twitter.com/3cYqgJrfM7

Not saying that we don't got good rappers anymore, but after Jay Z dropped 4:44, I realized how mediocre & amateur rappers are now a days…
