Sprint, a new shareholder in Tidal, is offering the album as part of a free trial Tidal subscription for Sprint customers. But if you don’t already have Tidal, you still might not be able to stream it. Beyoncé’s husband, Jay-Z, released a new album, 4:44, on Friday. This means you can’t stream it on Spotify or Apple Music. Complete your purchase of the CD album to save the MP3 version to your Music Library. it all adds up to an album that seems nearly out of time, at least when it comes to the years spanning Jay-Zs career, without resembling a true regression. The bad news is that it’s going to be hard to listen to the album (unless you, uh, do something illicit.)

In one track, Jay-Z fires a shot at Kanye West, while other lines are being read as an apology to Beyoncé because of his alleged infidelity. Early buzz seems to suggest that it’s good but not necessarily great. The 10-track album, his first in four years, features Beyoncé, Frank Ocean, The-Dream, and Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s daughter, Blue Ivy Carter. Many reviewers have noted that 4:44, with Jay-Z citing lines from the song, is a reference to Lemonade. But, since nobody has Tidal, you might have a harder time streaming 4:44. Jay-Z focuses on a wide variety of issues on the record, such as the ongoing world of hip hop, his personal life, his marriages, prejudices and bigotry. It arrived after a four-year hiatus, and just 15 days after his historic induction into the Songwriters Hall of Fame on June 15, 2017. If you want to hear the new LP (perhaps to listen for any lyrics that could potentially be responses to Lemonade), then you’re going to need Tidal. 4:44 is the long-anticipated thirteenth album from JAY-Z.
