Happy Four Year Anniversary to 4:44

Four years ago, Jay Z released the the album 4:44 and, with it, the title track “4:44.” Happy four-year anniversary to 4:44! This anniversary marks the day on which the famous hip-hop star’s 13th album first launched.

4:44 remains Jay-Z’s most candid, reflective, and transparent album to date. It is also the last solo album he created. Inspired by a morning when he at woke up at 4:44 am, the title track runs for exactly four minutes and 44 seconds. The song “4:44” is beautifully written and intentionally crafted.

Why Is “4” So Important?

The number four also has an essential meaning to the hip-hop star and his wife, Beyoncé.  Many important birthdays of people close to them have landed on the fourth day of a certain month. Also, they share a close friendship with the former President of the United States, Barak Obama, and he was the 44th President.

Lyrics From The Song

I apologize to all the women whom I toyed with your emotions

Because I was emotionless

And I apologize because, at your best, you are loved

And because I fall short of what I say, I’m all about

Your eyes leave with the soul that your body once housed

And you stare blankly into space

Thinkin’ of all the time, you wasted it on all this basic shit

So I apologize
