During his annual Twitter Q&A yesterday, a fan asked Jay-Z whether they’d ever get to hear a finished version of ‘Dead Presidents III’, an unfinished track recorded around the time of American Gangster in 2007.

Hov must have been in a jovial mood following the release of his 12th studio album Magna Carta Holy Grail, a record that went platinum instantly because Samsung bought a million copies to give away with their smartphone devices, and so Jay-Z decided to let the people hear it.

Jay replied to the fan saying: “Just or Guru has it I give them Twitter permission to GO” and soon after Young Guru streamed the track on Soundcloud.
