Madonna, Beyoncé, Nicki, Rihanna, Kanye, Jay Z & others - new owners of Tidal

[hmm 979]

​shut up and stop trying to instigate an issue, it's my opinion; the old hag is out of place. 

Eek at not being able to deal with the criticism

They may leave Spotify but they won't be leaving Googles cheap streaming service and they will most probably be on Apples streaming service too once it's released (hopefully soon) 

They can attack Spotify all they want but Google and Apple have a LOT of power, who won't let them leave

I can imagine a lot of labels happy to put their artists on Tidal but they wouldn't leave Spotify for it.

Tidal will hardly earn the labels any money especially at the start, it wouldn't be worth the risk to stop getting streaming sales from Spotify

The fact that she's STILL the biggest selling and highest grossing female artist of all time says hi. ​​Her billion dollar empire she built for herself also says hi. Her unusual deal with CAA, Live Nation and Interscope that makes her millions every year, even when she's not releasing anything also says hi. Plus, she's actually been close to Jay & Beyonce since 2013. Of course she's there, she was the first big star to be unapologetic about doing smart business.

​its none of my business how much she earns or how many records she sold.
it just felt odd to me seeing her on the ad and i wrote abt it.calm down

I really don't understand why Madonna is there. It just seems like she's bandwagoning the idea to be "cool". 

​i was thinking the same thing lol

inb4 this will be a huge flop

​You saying you don't hate Madonna and then making posts like this, 'elderly heart and old hag'

​I don't hate her though, her situation is just comical af. The issue is that you guys take it too literal & end up being butt hurt.

Every artist in that video now has a Teal image as their profile picture on social media. Something big is coming.

The state of this board when it comes to Madonna...

That thread about Rebel Heart being declared a "flop" by Forbes (it is now closed) ... I just can't.

Did y'all make a similar thread when Bowie released an album last year? Because that's Madonna's peer. Bowie, Madonna and Prince. The others from that era are either dead or inactive.

Madonna is still the biggest selling and highest grossing female artist of ALL TIME. She has nothing to prove in terms of current sales, the only reason why she's still going is because she wants to. She could easily retire, she has a billion dollar empire that makes money every year without even putting out new work.

The fact that she's joining Tidal right now and tries to improve the sh*t state the record industry is currently in also proves that she's very aware of illegal downloading, streaming and the digital revolution in music. She signed a contract in 2007 that expected these kind of numbers. 

That "flop" thread was/is pure flamebait. Look at the Entertainment section right now. Madonna, Madonna, Madonna. Even Drake names songs after her.

Call or quote me when another female artists is this relevant and successful 30+ years into her career.

Chill brother, you've taken the bait too damn obvious.

The service will launch today, that is why.
