Magna Carta Holy Grail seems like it should be a big deal, but it’s kind of hard to get excited about it. Should I feel bad about that?

Two weeks ago, Jay-Z announced that he'd be releasing his 12th studio album, Magna Carta Holy Grail, on July 4 to Samsung Galaxy users through an app, and July 7 to online and physical retailers. It was a surprise announcement, but not totally unexpected given his tour this summer with Justin Timberlake, whose comeback appears to be mainly a result of contractual obligations.
This album — with its hefty, self-important name — is supposed to be a "big deal," or at least Jay-Z and Samsung would like us to believe it is.
So why does it seem like no one is really that excited about it?
