On "Oceans" Jay and Frank deal with America's ugly past and continued struggle with racism.  He also describes his thoughts about the transatlantic slave trade using the ocean off the Ivory Coast.  Here's and excerpt of some of the lyrics;

"This water mixed my blood/ This water tells my story/ This water knows it all."  While another verse Jay raps, "I'm anti Santa Maria/ Only Christopher we acknowledge/ Is Wallace/ I don't even like Washington's in my pocket."

On "Holy Grail," Hov also teams-up with Justin Timberlake to explore the push and pull of being a celebrity on a joint called "Heaven," on the song Jay questions religion and shoots down persistent rumors that he is part of a secret society.

Looks like Jigga's got some things to get off his chest. The full album is slated for release on the Independence Day, July 4.  Meanwhile, Frank Ocean says he's "knee-deep" in a follow-up to his award-winning Channel Orange.
