Jay-Z’s “Magna Carta” is dropping as we speak, and Twitter is abuzz with anticipation of Hov’s latest joint.
If you’re a Jay-Z fan, you’re probably at least remotely aware Hovito’s name is all over social media right now, as fans await the release of the album — with some users receiving a free full album via the “Magna Carta” app:

Now that 12 AM has come and gone, Hov’s MCHG is hitting phones and screens worldwide, and Twitter is reacting — often through canned tweets when users unlock an app’s features:

At SocialNewsDaily, we thought perhaps we were doing the app wrong at midnight struck, but it seems we’re not the only ones having problems:

Not everyone was keen on the multimedia tie-in anyway:

And it seems while everyone is spun up over Hov’s album drop, no one has actually heard anything yet:
Apparently Jay-Z is running late!! We’ll get it on as soon as possible. #holygrail
