Kanye West and Jay-Z

Jay-Z and Kanye West have kept fans waiting with news of their heavily-guarded album Watch the Throne, but the hip-hop titans finally made it official by announcing the formation of their supergroup, an official album release date, and a once-in-a-lifetime tour.

The rappers have combined their talents to create a group dubbed “The Throne” and will release their collaborative album exclusively to iTunes on August 8. It will be available at additional physical and digital retailers on August 12 featuring the lead track “Otis,” as well as contributions from Beyoncé, Frank Ocean, Mr Hudson, The Neptunes, and RZA.

On the same day as the iTunes release, tickets for their fall tour will go on sale to the public. The 22-city North American trek kicks off October 29 in Atlanta and travels to cities including Philadelphia, Chicago, Dallas, and Los Angeles, wrapping December 18 in Vancouver.

Starting August 2, fans that visit Live Nation’s website will have access to pre-sale tickets, which includes a digital copy of the album.
