We know. We Know. You've heard it all before. Jay Electronica teases new music, then nothing happens. It's been that way for the past eight or so years. But something's gotta give, right? The mythical Jay Elect recently took to Twitter to tease fans once again about the possibility of new music coming out. After dropping some knowledge on the meaning behind the title of his new album, J.E. sent this tweet.

"To all those who have been patient with me and supported me over the years, thank you. And get #Tidal #AreYouWatchingClosely?," he posted.

The posts left many to speculate that Jay finally has some new waves to offer with Tidal being the possibly contractually obligated landing spot for any new music from the NOLA MC.

Another thing that gives fans hope is Elect has been as vocal (and visible) this year as he has in any of the past several. He kicked off the year making news for going at Kendrick Lamar and 50 Cent during a Periscope rant.

In February, the elusive rapper dropped the track "The Curse of Mayweather." In April, he went on a brief tour of the West Coast.

In May he appeared on the Chance The Rapper track "How Great" off the Chicago rapper's new mixtape Coloring Book.

Last September, Just Blaze revealed he has a finished version of Jay Electronica's new album on his hard drive. Will Act II: Patents of Nobility (The Turn) see the light of day in 2016?
