Jay Z will celebrate the 25th anniversary of his debut album, Reasonable Doubt, by minting and selling his first non-fungible token. For the NFT, Jay-Z tapped artist Derrick Adams to create a one-of-a-kind animated digital piece inspired by the Reasonable Doubt cover. The new piece is titled Heir to the Throne, which was originally supposed to be the title of Reasonable Doubt.

The announcement of Jay-Z’s Reasonable Doubt-inspired NFT comes on the heels of a spat with former Roc-A-Fella Records co-founder Dame Dash, whom the label recently sued for allegedly trying to sell the actual album Reasonable Doubt as an NFT. Dash, however, denied the claims, stating instead that he was trying to sell his remaining shares in Roc-A-Fella. On Tuesday, a court sided with Roc-A-Fella, prohibiting Dash from minting and selling the album as an NFT.
