Square to aquire majority ownership in Tidal. Jay-Z joins board of Square

[Vandelay]

Salute to Hov.

I never thought he'd get this far as a businessman. He's pulling moves from Warren Buffet's playbook.

 

[CashmereThoughts]

Trust black capitalists brehs
All these companies being marketed as black companies have a final goal of being sold ......to cacs
Good for the stakeholders but people can’t get caught up in the illusion that it’s anything more than that

This been his play for 2 decades. acquire a company for 56M and sell it for 397M.

Why do we have a problem with this .

he's been working with square to develop crypto in developing countries and now he's on their board. the obvious play is the financial space. y'all got a problem with everything.

 

[dj-method-x]

Joe Budden gonna lose it

 

[A.V.]

Hovengers circle jerk incoming

 

[EBK String]

Trust somebody who brags about selling poison to his own people brehs. He been selling nikkas out his whole life, he just doing it legally now.

 

[CHICAGO]

JAY ALWAYS ENDS UP
SELLING HIS OWNERSHIP
IN EVERYTHING AFTER USING
HIS BRAND TO BLOW IT UP.

FROM LIQUOR, TO CLOTHES,
TO RECORD LABELS.
(EVEN HIS SMALL NETS OWNERSHIP)

THE KING OF THE CASHOUT.

...and thats the way the game is to be played. Cant be mad at it.

 

[Morethan1]

Joe Budden gonna lose it

Why?

 

[Destined-2-Shine_HNIC]

A win for Hov is a Win for Hov and his family, how do black people benefit from this?

Inspiration,Representation, demonstration and resources.

If you cant accept victory in the wins of your brothers, you have eliminated 99.9% of your own chances at winning.

Celebrate ALL black success, whether you agree with the means to an end is a convo for another day.

 

[Tony D'Amato]

How many partners are getting a piece of this?
Don't believe the headlines.

 

[CashmereThoughts]

Why?

the recurring theme for the last 3 years maybe on the podcast is about ownership, and creators getting a fair shake from these labels/streaming platforms. I don't think Joe will be angry about this move though

 

[Ayo]

Nikkas on a message board spinning a $300,000,000 payout as a bad thing.
