Usually one to keep quiet on social media, Jay-Z began tweeting up a storm on Monday morning and kept up through most of the day.

The 43-year-old rapper took to his Twitter account to respond to fan messages, tweeting every few minutes. Before Monday, Jay had under one hundred tweets total, previously using the site for special occasions, such as his wife, Beyonce, performing at the Super Bowl , or his collaborator Justin Timberlake reaching a milestone with his latest album .

Last month, Jay-Z went on a rare Twitter rant , speaking out after Billboard chose not to count the one million copies of his album "Magna Carta Holy Grail" that Samsung pre-purchased as a part of a partnership. He used the hashtag #newrules to discuss Kanye West, as well as his protege, J. Cole, before signing off , saying, "Ok that was my yearly allotment, see ya'll [in] 2014."

It seems that Jay-Z thought better of his yearly allotment, more than doubling his tweets for 2013 on Monday alone. Hov mostly focused on fans' reactions to his "Magna Carta Holy Grail" album, mixing it up with answers to random questions, such as the fact that Cap'n Crunch was his favorite cereal growing up .

Scroll through below for a sampling of Jay-Z's tweets from Monday, including the hilarious new hashtag: #mylaugh.
