JAY-Z References Jet Ski Photo That Turned Into a Hilarious Meme
Written by SOURCE on July 19, 2019
On Thursday night, Beyoncé‘s 14-track The Lion King companion soundtrack album The Lion King: The Gift was released.
The project boasted features from Childish Gambino, Burna Boy, Kendrick Lamar, Tekno, Yemi Alade, Mr Eazi, Jessie Reyez, Pharrell, Blue Ivy Carter, Wizkid, Tiwa Savage, Wale, Major Lazer, Tierra Whack, 070 Shake, and others.
JAY-Z was also featured on the project, and contributed a verse on “Mood 4 Eva.” Said verse seemingly made reference to that photograph of him riding a jet ski. You know, the one that turned into a meme.

“Helmet, on a jetski, you know the vibes,” JAY raps on the track.
