Jay-Z has started an Instagram account and is using it to promote new Netflix movie The Harder They Fall, which he produced. The @jayz account went live on Tuesday night and picked up 1.5M followers in a matter of hours. Jay is keeping his follower-following ratio sensible and followed just one account; Beyoncé. She followed him back, too, making his account the only one she follows also.
