Jay Z changes name with a Hova hyphen drop

Jay Z

Jay-Z no longer buys into the hyphen hype as he wishes to now be called Jay Z.

Billboard editor Joe Levy gave everyone a heads up on the punctuation situation via Twitter Wednesday night. “Breaking: Jay Z has dropped the hyphen from his name, according to his label. I am not kidding. (Wish I was.) Copy editors: take note.”

We’ll do our best to remember this slight alteration and respect the artist formerly known as Jay–Z’s wishes. We can’t promise anything, as half the time we forget about that accent mark for his wife, Beyoncé.
