The New York Post is reporting that Samsung is in talks with Jay Z to buy TIDAL, the streaming service the Roc Nation founder purchased in October of 2014 and infamously re-launched in March of last year.
The report also notes that in addition to Samsung, Google and Spotify have expressed interest in the company, originally a Swedish brand, but that Samsung has made itself appear to be the strongest of the suitors thanks to “really big” plans that have yet to be teased or unveiled.

Once again sold to the highest bidder smh
Hov has that money they offering they low ballin talkn 9 figures.. I feel its to early with tidal for him to do that let it build more worth. Samsung defs sees a bright future so let them come back with a bigger offer or others down the line.
He gonna take the deal
Kenneth Black……
I hope he doesnt sell.
Please don’t Do it That can be the platform we Need!!!!
Not gonna happen the shift has begun
Well…its not really Jays to actually sell. Every artist in Tidal has stake which makes all of them owners as well. So trust Jay will be dividing that 9 figures a few ways. I would sell it tho. The only thing it offers is exclusivity to its artists and nothing for the consumer. With piracy and all the other cheaper streaming services out there i don’t see it lasting too long. Unless they pull the ole Taylor Swift and pull all of their artists music off of all other streaming sites. I signed up for the month free subscription just to hear Kanye’s album. Exploring the site tho…its nothing special. I’m about to cancel that joint before they charge me lol!
I’m sure those cats have a small percentage with paperwork to sell if he wants to.
Yea he should sell and make every body else richer… Kanye seems to keep crying about money lol!!
