Jay-Z's "black phone"

blackphone.jpg In what I believe to be a world first, an artist has tied up with a handset manufacturer for the launch of a new album.

Rap artist Jay-Z has tied up with Nokia for his new album, according to SOHH.com via Moco News.

"The special edition Nokia 3300 (black of course) will come with the entire "Black Album" preloaded on a multimedia card. The 3300 also comes equipped with wallpaper and ring tones that sound like real music and listed owners will receive weekly text messages and monthly voice messages from Jay-Z himself". How cool is that?
