(AllHipHop News) The Magna Carta was a historical document marking the first time the King of England’s power was limited by his subjects centuries before Jay-Z sold his to Samsung.
Jay-Z visited the 898 year old document at Salisbury Cathedral in southwest England for an hour according to officials at the cathedral. Young Hov also met the cathedral’s dean Rev. June Osborne who said Jay was “a delightful guest.”
The cathedral is showcasing the original Magna Carta next to the artwork for Jay-Z’s chart topping Magna Carta Holy Grail.
In related news, Jay-Z might have changed his name and He changed his name and WE N E O it. Last night (July 17th) the editor of BillBoard Joe Levy sent out a message on his personal twitter informing the world that Jay-Z dropped the hypen from his name:
Breaking: Jay Z has dropped the hyphen from his name, according to his label. I am not kidding. (Wish I was.) Copy editors: take note.

The editor soon noted that while Jay’s label has confirmed the drop of the hyphen there have been inconsistencies in its usage:
@wesleyverhoeve Didn’t take anywhere. NYT, all media, fans. Or the cover of BP3, for that matter. iTunes credits “JAY Z”; cover says “JAY-Z”
