The only black artist who really matter right now are drake, rih, kendrick, jcole, jayz, beyonce, kanye and nicki.

No one else sales as much as them or gets as much media coverage as them, so no one else really matters. They already have all of them (except for drake) and tidal is still flopping. The exclusives don't keep anyone there. They are wasting time energy and money on this instead of trying to figure out how to make more money per stream, period.

This is good for Ti since no one cares about him. No one wants to pay for tidal, but people do talk/care about it. It stays in the news b/c it's owned by celebs. This doesn't benefit the customer, so idk why they tried to use that to sell it lol. I've never heard anyone talk about this "high quality" that they claim to have. If people don't want to pay for albums, what makes you think they would want to pay for a streaming service that costs more than spotify, which they more than likely already have if they're interested in streaming.
Tidal is currently the 4th ranked music app and 25th ranked app overall. How is that a "flop"?

He didn't. T.I. vs. T.I.P. is the only T.I. album that has no Toomp tracks. At the time, Toomp was busy producing for Kanye and Jay. Of course, Toomp and T.I. have had arguments, but nothing to where it jeopardized their chemistry or artist/producer relationship. The new album is supposed to be mostly Toomp production.
Why did TI stop fukking with TOOMP in the first place? they made classics smh.
Nah, I know for a fact that they fell out because Toomps price went up and TI didn't want to cut the check. Toomp is the kind of dude that knows his worth and will not take any less. His position was Ross, Jay, Jeezy, and Kanye pay me what I ask for but you will Jew me down and turn around and pay Pharrell more than my asking price when we have done classic material together.

TI was like fukk it thinking dudes couldn't eat without him. Atlantic been tried to get a TI/Toomp album together after Paper Trail, they even were about to pay for them to get outta ATL so they could focus but TI was acting like a bytch.

How did they fall out if Toomp has records on every T.I. album except T.I. vs. T.I.P.? On top of that Toomp is executive producing T.I.'s new album.
