The rapper, whose real name is Shawn Carter, has brought back the hyphen which he dropped after 2013’s Magna Carta Holy Grail album, and his whole name is now in capitals.
JAY-Z is due to release his new album 4:44 on 30 June.

A representative for his Roc Nation label confirmed the name change with the Daily News and said it will be used on his yet to be released album, “4:44,” which comes out on his streaming service Tidal on June 30. Of course, it’s still going to be pronounced the same way but will be written differently.
