Apple Music is piff, Spotify going to the bushes

[Kid McNamara]

Like he said, stop changing the subject breh. Where are all the concerns y'all had in the Tidal thread? Nobody's concerned about what Time Cook/Apple is doing for the black community? Nobody is worried about how many black employees Apple got (only 7% of Apple employees are black and the majority work in their retail store). None of Apples executives are black (which means they'll never hire your black ass). Nobody is taking a stand against making rich people richer?

It seems like all of the issues y'all nikkas were complaining about magically stopped being a problem.........that's interesting ain't it

Hey you know what, this a good ass point.

Wait wait wait.....slow your roll scooby. It was BLACK PEOPLE who put Jay Z in his position to be Jay Z. It's because of Black people that held him in high regard and financially supported him for YEARS...that other non-Blacks took noticed....I SAID YEARS...and supported him in all his musical endeavors...so don't come in here DISREGARDING THAT FACT on some misplaced "yo, wh we don't support' argument when it's obviously are HORRIBLY placed argument when it comes to JAY Z....Blacks supported him for YEARS...

your argument makes sense in possibly some other scenario...but Not Jay Z....in this case it/you fail miserably.

Blacks supported him because he made a product they wanted. Support wasn't arbitrary, he made good product and black folks were willing to pay for it.

That's not the point @bdizzle made though.

His point is pretty thorough, why is Jay being held to a different standard when it comes to trying to compete in a global marketplace?

Dude actually made a really good point, and your response was, "naw, WE SUPPORTED HIM THOUGH."

As if millions of black people haven't supported Apple products for the last decade.

Actually, what you are saying makes zero sense and your attempt to apply it fails to change anything noted. What on earth are you talking about. "Support wasn't arbitrary" It's like you don't even understand how to be sound in your own viewpoint.

[The_Sheff]

SMFH pathetic af some of u are. During that tidal smear campaign I saw dudes writing dissertations criticizing the business model, jays philanthropy, the service, and complaining about jays personal wealth. I guess the white mans ice is seriously colder.

 

[King Sun]

Exactly. Dudes with no prior business knowledge sounding like they fresh out of Stanford Business School. Thread upon thread going at the decisions being made.

Dudes going back two decades, talking about who Jay helped and didn't help. Posting up photos of the Tidal dev teams, going in on the lack of diversity.

Apple drops a competing product, no questions asked.

 

[StretfordRed]

Apple music is taking my cash

shyt is smoother than Spotify for me

I'll ride out this trial and see what happens

 

[Soundbwoy]

I just checked again.
I can't respect a music service who's idea of international music is only Reggae and Latin
I'll stick to Spotify

spotify got that kompa and zouk on lock

 

[Rice'N Beckford]

You hotep cornballs crying about Jay Z not getting the black support

Tidal fukked up with their marketing. They made headlines talking about a $19.99 "hi-fi" subscription. So with that everyone bashed the service eventhough there was a $9.99 service

Another thing was that dumbass event with all those millionaire artists signing that bullshyt.

I like apple music. shyt is crisp and clean af
