"It's been an exciting year so far for the music industry with some major releases, and we're particularly excited about partnering with leading artists JAY-Z and Kanye on the launch of their highly anticipated album," said Nate Jarpe, merchant director of music at Best Buy.

The DELUXE packaging for "WATCH THE THRONE" is high-end art created by acclaimed designer Riccardo Tisci of Givenchy. The softpack, when opened up, turns into a cross-like shape printed on gold mylar with Tisci's patterns embossed throughout. The package also includes an 18-panel poster that features Tisci's artwork as well as lyrics to the entire album. The CD is a special edition black colored disc which is not standard with normal packaging. In tune with his codes for Givenchy, Riccardo Tisci created an artwork that channels most of his aesthetics: symmetry, lightness, darkness, sharpness and 3D.
WATCH THE THRONE Deluxe edition CD will be available at additional retailers beginning August 23rd.
