Jay-Z Pulls The Fashion Card On Magna Carta... Holy Grail

Fashion News
Jay-Z's new album, Magna Carta... Holy Grail, might not be out until Monday for those of us without a Samsung (who are we kidding, you've totally found it online already), but the Brooklyn rapper is further cementing his fashion ties.
And while he may have already collaborated with Justin Timberlake on the menswear-inspired Suit & Tie, Jay's started naming names. Specifically Tom Ford. The American designer, who dressed Jay and JT for their earlier track gets a starring role on what is set to be one of the most talked about albums of 2013.
But don't expect any fashion reviews here, Jay's not even mentioning the designer's style in the hook below:
"I don't pop molly, I rock Tom Ford
International bring back the Concorde
Numbers don't lie, check the scoreboard"

Loosely translated, the above references his record sales, his hopes to return to supersonic air travel and the fact that, while he doesn't do MDMA or ecstasy he totally rocks Tom Ford, which might be the most creative anti-drug campaign in recent memory.
