'Watch the Throne' Gets iTunes Release Date

There have been many plausible release dates floating around for Watch the Throne, but nothing has been officially announced. Now iTunes reveals what appears to be the most credible date yet for Jay-Z and Kanye West’s highly-anticipated LP.

The digital retailer has posted an “expected release” date of Monday, August 8. The standard and deluxe editions are also available for pre-order.

While the date reflects a digital release, it is not currently known if the physical album will also arrive that day or at a later time.

A new track called “Otis” was released earlier this week and is also available for download now, while the album features appearances from Beyoncé, Frank Ocean, and Mr Hudson.

A behind-the-scenes documentary surfaced online on Friday, but was quickly pulled due to its premature leak.
