Act II: Patents Of Nobility is currently floating around in multiple places online and has been uploaded to SoundCloud by Jay's manager Lawrence "Law" Parker. Since the project surfaced Jay has been liking tweets from people who have been praising it, suggesting that he's cool with it finally being heard by his fans.

“please be patient w us, we are working to clear samples and have this up on Tidal asap. Thank You All,” he wrote in since-deleted tweets. “I actually tried to block this from coming out, but Allah is the best of planners. Also (I have to say this), thank you to all my day ones who never lost faith. Please forgive me for leaving y’all hanging all this time.”

The surfacing of Act II: Patents Of Nobility follows the release of Electronica's debut studio album A Written Testimony, which dropped back in March of 2020 via Roc Nation. The album featured multiple verses from Jay-Z and appearances from Travis Scott, The-Dream, James Blake, and James Fauntleroy. Though most of the project was produced by Jay Electronica himself, The Alchemist, Hit-Boy,Swizz Beatz, No I.D., and others also contributed.
