Today, the most successful rapper in history of hip hop, Jay-Z celebrates his 50th birthday as his discography returns to Spotify.

Born Shawn Corey Carter on December 4th, 1969, Jay-Z has accomplishments in and outside the booth. This includes multiple platinum number-one albums and becoming the genre’s first billionaire.

He removed a vast majority of his catalog from both Spotify and Apple Music in 2017 a few years after launching his majority-owned streaming platform Tidal.

While the catalog with the exception of Hov’s first album Reasonable Doubt returned to Apple Music back in May 2019, his full catalog is now available on Spotify and Tidal.
