Sources reportedly told TMZ that the exclusive rights to Yeezy’s 7th LP doubled the services subscriptions, jumping them up from roughly 1 million to 2.5 million in just 10 days’ time. The operation has been so successful, that Ye’s team is reportedly discussing a traditional digital and physical release of the album, now that the streaming puts TIDAL in position to potentially add up to $15 million in revenue.

  1. I like tidal they offer videos series concerts plus the music and other things an u don’t have to pay for the premium the standard version works fine Kingsmen White Joe Franklin

  2. Right now Jay is trying to feed the Hiphop world with his Tidal service but artist like Rihanna and Beyoncé will need a broad audience of music on Tidal to keep the customers coming back or they will cut their subscriptions. I have friends of all cultures here in Atlanta and sometimes I will look at their apple playlist and they will all kinds of music in there. They are the reason that I started listening to more types of music

  3. Joe Franklin you could just post one blog a week and go at it for seven days straight. That one post would generate a lot of hits. Let’s say you get a penny a hit and you are getting 500,000 hits a week

  4. Well J and Tidal have timing on their hands with the social media platform. Back in the day when J was signed to def jam/ Roc these labels had to pay al of for promo and marketing to let the world know that an album was coming now not can be done with the push of a button on social media with access to the whole world. This is also
    What I was taking to some folks in Ohio about dong when I first got into blogging and I wish I would of had the funds to pull it off Larry Thomas

  5. He basically eliminating the middle man greedy big business record labels flat only give artist pennies per cd…. Jay-Z basically did what all the black record labels were tying do before all of them got federally indicted to break up their plans to format a giant black owned label that would’ve cut out all of the white old Jewish owned labels from continuing to control all earned interest in their music…..he basically actually is doing what Lucius Lyons did in the sitcom power….that’s why they didn’t want him going public in that TV show it gives power back to the artist and money Kingsmen H Bruno

  6. That’s another perk I would add for vip members. An option for a physical CDs. I’m learning from this promo tour that it’s a lot of folks that love CDs and half the world don’t even use or check their social media

  7. No lie. I hate that Jay is Tidal because that’s the only artist I actually buy physical albums for. If he goes all digital I might have to hit the street peddlers.

  8. Another thing Tidal doesnt have is something like Spotify Connect….like I have my house wired for sound so whatever I have on my Spotify on my phone all I have to do is send that to my surround sound receiver and it’s going through the whole house… then when I leave my house and start my car it’s going to pick up exactly where I am on the song…. like Apple AirPlay

  9. I personally think the artist should make more money for their work. It’s no secret that they have been pumped for years. Yes they are a better paid now than back then. But you also have to see that the guys that don’t contribute to the art are 200x more wealthy than the actual creators.

  10. That’s what I’ve been saying. I’ve been supporting since its launch. A few bucks and I pretty much get most albums that come out. Unless they are like apple exclusives and then you have to wait until the record labels release the music for other streaming services.

  11. H Bruno Nfo they said Beyoncé is on her last album and then a joint album is coming w/ Jay Z. They are in talks to resign Beyoncé and she will hold out until they put up at least 50-75 million to resign her or she can just sign w/ Roc Nation. Do you have any idea how many people would subscribe if her music is ONLY on Tidal. Lol we are talking about millions worldwide would sign up to hear music and see videos from her.

  12. Most artist don’t see any bread from cd sales and make money off of touring. He is picking artist that know how to use social media for promo and marketing. Look at Kanye. He used his Twitter to talk and promote the album. Can you imagine how much break iTunes would make from the album and the rest would go to his label

  13. It says $15 million increase in revenue for Tidal. They reduce the cost for physical CDs and tidal can give them a huge payday for an album which they wouldn’t see from a label. Let’s say he gave Kanye $2 million for the album plus a cut from the total streams from that album plus he can do a concert and tour. He doesn’t have to sell any physical CDs because they are getting paid from the advertisement on those streams and new subscriptions H Bruno Nfo Larry Thomas
