El nuevo video promocional “Holy Grail" a cargo de Jay Z y Justin Timberlake forma parte de un tema polémico que integra parte de la nueva producción discográfica del rapero.
El track contiene en su letra un extracto de la canción "Smells Like Teen Spirit" de Nirvana, lo que ha causado bastante revuelo en la comunidad. Courtney Love permitió que Jay Z utilizara parte de la composición que marcó parte de la historia de la industria musical.
Como era de esperarse los fans de Kurt Cobain se quejaron de la acción tomada por Jay Z, mientras los del rapero simplemente siguen brindándole su apoyo.
El clip fue grabado por Anthony Mandler, un reconocido nombre de la industria pop que ha trabajado en clip para Lana del Rey, Taylor Swift, fun., Rihanna, entre otros artistas importantes de la industria.

Jay-Z y Justin Timberlake: "Holy Grail"
[Justin Timberlake]
You take the clothes off my back
And I let you
You steal the food right out of my mouth
And I watch you eat it
I still don’t know why
Why our love is so much
Ohhh
You curse my name
In spite to put me to shame
Air all my laundry in the streets
Dirty or clean
Give it up for fame
But I still don’t know why
Why I love it so much
Yea
And baby
It’s amazing I’m in this maze with you
I just can’t crack your code
One day you screaming you love me loud
The next day you’re so cold
One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
You’re so unfair sipping from your cup
Till it runneth over, Holy Grail
[Jay-Z]
Blue told me to remind you niggas
Fuck that shit y’all talk about
I’m the nigga,
caught up in all these lights and cameras
But look what that shit did to Hammer
God-damnit it I like it
The bright lights is enticing
But look what it did to Tyson
All that money in one night
30 mill for one fight
But soon as all the money blows,
all the pigeons take flight
Fuck the fame, keep cheating on me
What I do, I took her back, fool me twice
That’s my bad, I can’t even blame her for that
Enough to make me wanna murder
Momma please just get my bail
I know nobody to blame
Kurt Cobain, I did it to myself
[Justin Timberlake]
And we all just entertainers
And we all just entertainers
And we’re stupid, and contagious
And baby
It’s amazing I’m in this maze with you
I just can’t crack your code
One day you screaming you love me loud
The next day you’re so cold
One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
You’re so unfair sipping from your cup
Till it runneth over, Holy Grail
[Jay-Z]
Now I got tattoos on my body
Psycho bitches in my lobby
I got haters in the paper
Photo shoots with paparazzi

Can’t even take my daughter for a walk
See them by the corner store
I feel like I’m cornered off
Enough is enough
I’m calling this off
Who the fuck I’m kidding though?
I’m getting high
Sitting low
Sliding by
In that big body
Curtains all in my window
This fame hurt
But this chain works
I think back
You asked the same person
If this is all you had to deal with
Nigga deal with
It, this shit ain’t work
This light work
Camera snapping, my eyes hurt
Niggas dying back where I was birthed
Fuck your iris and IRS
Get the hell up off of your high horse
You got the shit that niggas die for
Dry yours
Why you mad
Take the good with the bad
Don’t throw that baby out with the bath water
You’re still alive
Still that nigga
Niggas you survived
You still getting bigger nigga
Living the life
Vanilla wafers
In a villa
Illest nigga alive
Michael Jackson, Thriller
[Justin Timberlake]
And baby
It’s amazing I’m in this maze with you
I just can’t crack your code
One day you screaming you love me loud
The next day you’re so cold
One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
You’re so unfair sipping from your cup
Till it runneth over, Holy Grail
You get the air of my lungs whenever you need it
You take the blade right out
of my heart just so you can watch me bleeding
I still don’t know why
Why I love you so much
Yea
And you play this game in spite to drive me insane
I got it tatooted on my sleeve forever
in ink with guess who’s name
But I still don’t know why
Our love is so much
And baby
It’s amazing I’m in this maze with you
I just can’t crack your code
One day you screaming you love me loud
The next day you’re so cold
One day you here, one day you there, one day you care
You’re so unfair sipping from your cup
Till it runneth over, Holy Grail
