“Nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists” Tidal is platinum. 1,000,000 people and counting. Let’s celebrate 10/20 Brooklyn.
— Mr. Carter (@S_C_) September 29, 2015
Since its launch in March, Tidal streaming service has reached 1 million subscribers. To commemorate the milestone, Jay Z announced a benefit concert taking place at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Proceeds will go to the New World Foundation.
Artists participating include Jay Z, Beyonce, Big Sean, Hit-Boy, Jidenna, Justin Skye, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Prince, Rihanna, The Roots, TIP, Usher, and more. Tickets for Tidal subscribers are available today and will go on sale to the general public this Friday.
Trash concert. Jay performed at Barclay’s when it opened. How long can we watch him stand in one spot performing Big Pimpin, PSA, and Hard Knock Life? If he doesn’t have any new music, this will be wack
So you didnt bother to see that line up huh? hahah
Have a _
Lineup sucks ass. I saw the lineup. What is Jay not performing? Y’all know something I don’t? GTFOH
It’s for charity so why complain also I don’t think you’re paying for it anyway so why do you even care !
Lol, my bro, do you even read… It’s not just Jay Z… Beyoncé, Prince Usher, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne and T.I., and it also features Damian Marley, Indochine, Fabolous, Thomas Rhett, DJ Cipha Sounds, DJ Reflex, Alessia Cara, Bas, Benjamin Booker, Flatbush Zombies, and Justine Sky
I saw that….Jay’s gonna perform too right? Do you read? All those artists are trash too. Just because they’re popular doesn’t mean the music’s gonna be good.
This makes no sense. Classics never get stale.
Knew you would be here to slurp up Jigga
YOU GOT TO BE A LONELY HATEFUL MOFO TO EVEN POST THESE COMMENTS YOUR LIFE MUST SUCK!! THIS LINEUP IS INCREDIBLE!!! BAMAS LIKE YOU GET STOMACH CANCER FROM ALL THE HATE IN YA GUTS!!! FK YO FEELINGS YOU MISERABLE LIL BAMA!!!
Why even brother with the back and forth
Are you calling Prince trash?
Y E S!
Boy you really are stupid. There are a bunch of artists on the line up ppl would love to see. I for one think its insane that Damian Market and Jigga are on the same line up. Jay-Z and Lil Wayne at the same show?
I don’t particularly dig Prince but I’ve never seen him in concert, the mystic around that man alone, this is something epic.
This is what I don’t get, even if I never listened to any artist on the line up, I would still see the line up and think its dope, because it is, even if it isn’t for me. Stop being a hating bitch ass nigga for no reason.
a million stupid motherfuckers paying for something that should be for free, “Nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists” wisdom for the dummies, fuck all this
STFU BAMA!!! WHAT YOU TRYNA KICK KNOWLEDGE? FK YO FEELINGS!!!
fuck you bama, you probably thought that jay z line was something smart cause you a retard
“should be for free”
Because you made it and decided to give it out for free?
they charge for the álbum, show tickets, products with theyr name but now they decide to charge for streaming music and watching videos, so they are squeezing every single penny out of stupid fans. and yes thru history the videos have being for free and should stay free
You’re either intellectually dishonest or just not a sufficiently intelligent person. Either way, I’ve decided that talking with you would be a waste of time. You aren’t going to convince me, otherwise.
Tidal is a major flop. Jay Z will never compete with Apple, Spotify and Google Play. Tidal has had so many L’s, that 1 million just seems like another L. He is gonna need a lot more users like over 10 million to pay artist for exclusives and special events. Lol, stop making excuses for Camel and his lesbian wife.
I’m fuckin with Tidal… They gave me Made in America, Lil Weezyana Fest, Summer Jam, Hov B-Sides, etc etc… them other companies not doing that kinda stuff
For Artist…By Artist…they know what the consumer wants.
It’s going through it’s growing pains…this is normal. Perfect example is that both Pandora (the most subs) & Spotify (60+ mil subs) are still BARELY profitable and they are 10 & 5+ years in respectively.
If Tidal keeps innovating and more outreach to indie artist, it will continue to grow and find it niche.
Megamind
a million subscribers is a major flop? you trolls man…
– Jay Z dickrider
clever
a million distributed in between all those big names? is it really good?
They’re making a concert with Beyonce, Jay Z, and Prince.
Prince nigga.
What the fuck else are yall gonna complain and troll about.
prince is cool, tidal sucks. they are not one entity
Compared to Apple Music and Spotify how well is Tidal really doing?
Dude likes his own status on every single comment, and sometimes does it as another account. Fuck dat nigga.
How much is Tidal? Lets add up the total revenue, and then off that we can guess how the company is doing.
that’s not even counting their definition of subscribers. Shit could be people who used tidal for free/one month/ yearly subscription. This shit doesn’t even add up. No they are not doing well.
brian B.Dot i had tremendous amount of respect for you until you started riding jay z scrotum a little bit too much…why you all over this comment section.. i haven’t seen you on a comment section for minute…the bottom line is stop riding jay’s dick…you and YN can’t get a interview from jay and never will..
I BET YOU B.DOT’S PETTY PAYCHECK THAT THERE’S JAY Z TWEETS AND 10/20 REFERENCES ALL OVER HIS TWITTER PAGE!!!! HA!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
b dot is a lame…
But you’re on his website though? Who’s really the lame? You commenting whores are the worst
Take a break from being a comment whore and get some fresh air! No other way to put it
With 7 billion people in the world and with Spotify at 75 million, yes it is a flop. Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t!
It’s all his own money. It’s a win.
see comment above.
I wish I could flop with a business with a million customers generating millions of dollars a year
Spotify with 75 million customers is having a hard time profiting and paying all its licenses.
You think Tidal is having a field day with ONE million customers?
At least ten million in revenue a month is not bad….I would take it
Tidal makes money off everyone homie. Spotify has too many free customers
word completely forgot
10/20

YOU DICKRIDIN’ FANATICS MAN……
…………….HA!!!! YOUR THORAT IS THE LITERALLY THE SHAPE OF JAY Z’S PENIS!!!! CUT IT OUT!!!! YOU ‘OL DICKRIDIN’ BUM!!!! GET THE FUCK OFF THIS POST!!!!

B.Dot I bet you have a lot of charm and charisma. Looks are not everything after all your parents had you.
Listen troll – No matter how much time and effort that you put into being a comment whore on this website you will NEVER earn a spot on the roster! Go away already
I already did. I’m in the starting lineup..
You bet B.Dot has a lot of charm and charisma… Ok then, Vladimir….
Fuck you moron stop riding b dot scrotum.
Just curious how many bitch niggaz & homo’s pay you monthly for service of any type?!?!? There are way too many stupid ass idiots in our community that don’t realize In life there can sometimes always be someone with more than you. It doesn’t mean you stop grinding & working hard. Bill Gates’ worth $79 Billion you think the Larry Ellison ($49.3 B)isn’t still trying to catch him?!?!?!
1 million people paying $10-$20 a month? So $10-$20 MILLION A MONTH A FLOP?
Every time I try to cancel that subscription they find a way to pull me back in… dope line-up
Congrats Jay Z on Tidal hitting 1 million subs. 10 more million to go before you catch Apple music and 54 million to go before you catch Spotify
that ether
Jay don’t have to catch up with Apple or Spotify. All Jay has to do his focus on his own business and that in itself will set him up for another major success.
parkinson’s!!!
Stupidity!!!
I don’t think his point of making tidal was to catch up….
It wasn’t. His plan is to get a couple million subs and sell it to the BIGGER company. Before it’s all said and done Beats/Apple will OWN EVERYTHING! And Jay will walk away with BILLI!!!
so he is playing chess? ha
True talk!!!
Ya’ll are bugging that concert is gonna be Bonkers… Prince alone is enough reason to go..
“Tidal encountered a lot of bad press almost immediately after it launched, and has been struggling to gain footing in a crowded section of the streaming space.
Conversely, Apple received a lot of good press. It was going to overtake the existing streaming music services like Spotify and Pandora. But like many Apple products which lauds itself as new, innovative, and groundbreaking it’s actually none of those things. And because this time there is no tangible product there is no pretty package to disguise it in.
Bottom line- Tidal may suck but so does Apple Music
Notice how nobody cares about your poorly written essay? Take a break from commenting
fuck you
No thanks! I have better things to do than comment on every single post ever published for the past 2 years lol and what’s even worse is that you really don’t understand how bizarre that is? Between you Mikey and Sonic I can’t figure out which one of you is more pathetic?. Keep up the good work
GET A LIFE MORON.
CTFU?! That’s what the rest of us have been trying to tell you to do for the past year? This is beyond calling the kettle black? Do you really not understand how bizarre your constant trolling is?! Like REALLY?! I strongly believe that I speak for everybody that visits this site that you definitely to take your own advice and LOG THE FUCK OFF! No other way to put it! Get a life outside of trolling
lol just cause its the same as spotify don’t mean it sux. Apple Music is automatically installed on the #1 phone, computers, tablets and gives a 3 MONTH FREE. Shit, I signed up for it 2 and a half months ago I forgot I still had the shit, and I probably will and get charged for it. Numbers don’t lie all these forcable installs are going to amount , obviously to big bux for apple and eventually people cancelling the $20 for essentially the same product just endorsed by different people.
aye diggz He got 99 problems and Tidal is one, Hit ME! Lol
Copy and paste work wonders.
I bet you a hundred dollars that what you do all day..fuckin bum get a day job and stay off my comments.
you disgust me stay away from my comments dude.
it already had a bunch before jay took over so this is nothing to brag about lol especially compered to its rivals
This should be on tidal. http://indy.livemixtapes.com/mixtapes/35908/la-tha-gawd-for-no-reason.html
Go put it on there.
85% of you clowns sit around complaining about what someone else is doing or not doing what are you doing complaining!#getyourlife together#itsforcharity!
I do what I want
Jigga!
VultureK
Some of the comments in this section is crazy. Im not the biggest Jay Z supporter, but I don’t want to see any “Black Man” fail when their trying to occupy business space in the free world.
Some of you need to change your frame of mind, because if you dont your eventually going to fall victim to the pit falls that have been placed in front of you purposely.
Im reading the comments and young “Black Men” are happy that Apple and Spotify have more subscribers than Tidal a “Black Owned” business.
And i know some people are going to say why inject “Race” into it. Well Jews support and do business their own, Asians support and do business with their own, Arabs support and do business with their own, Spanish and Latin people support and do business with their own. Black folks are the only people who dont support their own and then make excuses about it. All the while we own nothing in society, but we spend the most money in society.
If this doesnt apply to you, then let it fly. But there is no way any one can deny what im saying. We need to change the way we think. Once we do that, we will succeed at what ever we decide to take on. Peace!!
Well said bruh
That might be the most though out, sensible comment I’ve read on RapRapdar. As a black man myself, I think its sad that through all these years we still accept being nothing more than a “entertainer for the masses.” No attempt of ownership. No attempt of building future leaders. No attempt of standing strong. We cry with frustration when the Travon Martin verdict is read, but we laugh and say “them niggas is turn up” when hear of the senseless killings in Chicago.
With that said, I love Black People and I know we’re making progress in this world…. But I hate Niggaz & I know those are the ones that continue to bring us down. Im out
Only thing I’d say to that is I’ve heard a bunch of arguments made about how black people feel about murder in Chicago? Almost every black person I’ve heard speak about it says its a terrible situation. I have yet to hear any black person say or imply that the killings going on in Chicago are a great thing that black people should celebrate or be proud of. The difference between the call for justice behind Trayvon Martin and the murders in Chicago, is alot of those killers in Chicago went to prison for their killings so nobody was calling for justice after its served to the killer. There has been alot of marches and protests calling for peace period but the news don’t cover that so people think that doesn’t exist but they do. The notion that black people are like cheering for more murder in Chicago is a lie. Nobody black is doing that from what I’ve seen.
well said
Preach
I would agree but you’re talking about support a black millionaire who already done made buckoo bucks. So why would I back a lesser quality product with a higher price than a high quality product for much less?
My last pay check was $7985 working 9-10 hours a
week online. My sisters friend has been averaging 16k for months
now and she works about 18 hours a week. I can’t believe how
easy it was once I tried it out. This is what I do…

The Damian ‘Jr. Gong’ Marley feature on the line up is gonna make this show something special.
Jr. Gong, Prince, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne and T.I on the same bill…. Fire!
Respect and congratulations due.

If it is that, then either “dickriding” isn’t such a bad thing or it is a misapplied word. Choose one, oh you envious creature.
