With an album called Magna Carta Holy Grail, Jay-Z had to have some luxe song titles ready. According to the results of a Brooklyn scavenger hunt organized through Jay’s publicist via Twitter (hipsteriest premise ever?), the record will lead with “Picasso Baby” and feature tracks like “Heaven,” “Tom Ford,” and “Beach Is Better.” There’s a throwback (“La Familia”), a possible Blue Ivy nod (“Jay-Z Blue”), a definite Nickelback reference in the misspelled “Nickles & Dimes,” the hash-tag-y “FuckWithMeYouKnowIGotIt,” and a guessing game in “F.U.T.W.” “Open Letter” — the one about Jay & Bey’s Big Trip to Cuba — is on there, too.
