He's been on this since Blueprint, when he rocked that Che Guevara shirt on stage with The Roots.

At this point I think only hipsters are eating this up.
,I dont think everyone knows what hipster means.....true hipsters probably lying don't even know this concert happened and were someone listening to alternative rock at a random ass dive bar

I fukks with Jay, but I'm not stupid. He's trying to co-opt the press on Tidal and turn it into a Big Man vs. Little man, underdog, black vs. white type of rap feud. He's trying to politic the narrative and make it about the evil white corporation vs. the poor black hustler from Marcy trying to fight the system.

No Jay. You got caught being greedy and out of touch. You don't get to "come home" and make it a hip-hop thing. You don't get to trot Sigel out on stage under the guise of being that relatable dude that's about us.

This ain't about slavery, this ain't about Mike Brown, you don't get to make a martyr of yourself by mentioning those things when it's convenient. The nerve of using those terms while promoting a service that's all about charging more of my hard earned money to provide an inferior product and line your pockets.

You compete with Spotify by providing a better service or a cheaper service, like anything else in the market.
You not buying what?

Its alrdy been outted Jay has been secretely bailing out baltimore protestors

What u aint buying? The fact that he is actually being hated as a business owner for doing what cracka business owners do?

Nikka u are the reason blacks will never win..because behind this whole psuedo righteous rant lies the real issue with this all.

The idea of a successful black business owner who's success is visible...via his stardom

So kill all dat noise breh

Exactly


Cacs really did a number on my people over the years. We will never have any power because we are programmed to support everybody but us. Soon as someone of the same color comes along trying to own something, we look for every angle not to support, but, let it be anyone else, we race to give them our money, no questions asked :snoop:

you must either be a cac or a half breed or a c00n

the point jayz was making is people say no im not signing up to tidal because im not going to make him richer, even though people will make many white owned ceo's richer.

the entry level to tidal is the same amount as spotify I think even cheaper infact. so the pricing isn't an excuse.

exactly these clowns are getting paid to hate. thats the only reason i can think of. unless they are white or just some self hating black folks that still doesnt understand the difference between chess and checkers.

idiots dont sign up for tidal if you dont like it or think its to expensive. but what you should nt do is cry about it every other moment you get.

You keep saying they're asking for too much. How so? oh because spotify and these others made the price first.

let me ask you a question, why dont you tell Nike they are charging to much for their shoes? You do realize it costs less then $20 to make a pair right? but i bet if Jay came out with the very same shoes, their would complaining about price. pathetic.

Dont forget to add Nas stans in there:sas1:....was there a rush of guilty nikkas or white folks rushing to buy Tidal after Jays concert to bring these threads on:patrice:? What Jay did worked how it was supposed to,everybody hating on tidal for no good reason out the blue gotta second guess themselves now....is it because Jay is black?would i hate on a white man like this?It needed to be said.

And yall would have a point if Jay was out here yappin about everything but freddie gray and ferguson....but he addressing issues that are personal as well as public where he pretty much always has,in his music....we gon pretend Jay never spoke on black issues in his music now:comeon:

You see it too :wow:

Sean really got nikkas fooled. His voice would do more for the protesters he is allegedly bailing out than his money but he don't want to mess with those corporate connects.

And now he is trying to align himself to recent events to keep tidal afloat. :camby: out of here. This man will really do anything for the dollar.

just from this post I kno two things

you're a c00n

and you're financially underachieving in life



so when a black businessman is trying to... y'know... do business its a bad thing. ohhh like a this black man trying to make money. but a white man like bill gates or steve jobs.. no one says anything.

jayz has been doing more and saying more on black issues than you and everyone in your family combined.

"Instead he has rushed this and he resulted to hip hop disses to billion dollar companies which on the whole changed music for the better."

Im the first to admit that Jay created a pr nightmare for himself with the way he rolled this out but nikkas being soooooooo pressed for him to take an L on this one. Im just like :dwillhuh:

How dare a nikka try to profit off some shyt he helped build right? I get nikkas got Jay agendas but :camby:Let that man cook a little. Yall aint at these white ceos with that tensity. Can a nikka build?
