TIP can still rap. His production just been real ehhhhhhhhhh

He needs to step it up man tbh. He has the skills to take it to the next level but he been stagnant for a minute. That trap beats he been on kind of played out.

How does the artist ownership deals work?

 

[CrimsonTider]

The problem with TIP last album was letting Pharrel EP it

Pharrel is washed as far as Hiphop goes

I'll join Tidal when they let ME own a % of it. Why do I care what TI and Rihanna own?

I'm starting to believe there is an agenda against TIDAL as well and here's why:

People are looking at TIDAL from the wrong perspective, it isn't about a profit it's about OWNERSHIP and DISTRIBUTION. Do you realize how much richer Master P and Birdman would be if they had a distribution deal that they had a piece of ownership in on top of owning their own masters?

I'm tempted to call what Jay is doing brilliant for the simple fact that he would have never been able to break into the traditional distribution business. The TIDAL exclusives seem forced and like a hassle but in reality, it's keeping the money in the "family" so to speak.

I don't subscribe to any music service but I'm strongly considering getting a TIDAL subscription to support black musicians taking their ownership back.

The agenda is definitely real breh. We're on a hip-hop site, and yet the only music streaming company owned by an iconic hip-hop artist is constantly getting shytted on, despite all the good moves they've done.

Tidal streamed the Lil Weezyana Katrina concert
Tidal released the Usher song against police brutality that forced you to stare at the screen
Tidal is promoting Money & Violence
Exclusive hip-hop album releases

They're focus seems to be squarely on the hip-hop market, but it's the most hated streaming service on this site. I wonder how different the response would be if Jay Z had straight hair and a hook nose :cacpls:
