Jay Z's headlining slot at September's Made in America festival fuels speculation that he is plotting the release of his 13th studio album.

Philadelphia's Made in America festival released its 2017 lineup this morning. Jay Z will headline the festival alongside J Cole, and some Twitter users are convinced that this means he is planning to release his 13th studio album sometime around Labor Day Weekend.
