Jay Z Announces Free Concert For TIDAL Users

The rapper Jay Z has revealed that he is to launch a free concert for users of his TIDAL streaming service today!

Good news below…

May 13th will see the icon perform a number of never-before-heard songs from his hit-kissed discography at a free concert fans will be able to enjoy should they sign up to the growing service.

The show will take place two months after TIDAL’s launch, and weeks after the rapper addressed the intense criticism it continues to face with messages published here.

TIME adds:

The concert, set to take place on May 13 in an “intimate New York City venue” according to the announcement, will be live-streamed on the Tidal website for subscribers. But fans can win tickets to the event by curating a playlist on Tidal and sharing it on Twitter with the hashtag #TIDALXJAYZ. The winners will be chosen based on the quality of the sequencing and the diversity of genres and artists, which means its time to put those mixtape skills to work if you want to get close to Hov—or, if you’re lucky, any of the other famous Tidal owners who could probably be persuaded to make a special appearance.

    • Yonce on your mouth April 29, 2015

      Shut up! The 20 dollar it’s for the steaming service you get and not for the concert. Don’t be such a broke b****, no one insist you get the one of 20dollar, the one of 9dollar is there for a reason. Anything to see this man fail. #sad. I wish you judge other big company half as much you do Tidal and jay Z. If you don’t want then leave the post for those actually interested in it. Jeez it’s been just a month for peace sake.

      • dydy972 April 29, 2015

        So, tell me how jay z will pay back to the company the money he took to organize that concert?
        Not from his pocket!
        He’ll wait for the funds ( thanks to suscribers) to get bigger to pay back this cash…

  9. TheElusiveLamb April 29, 2015

    Who are the performers though?

  10. Yonce on your mouth April 29, 2015

  13. MISS FAME April 29, 2015

    As much as I’m not really into this whole thing while the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

    I know for sure that in the next couple of years this Tidal will be huge.

    • LOL April 29, 2015

      LOL DID YOU ALSO KNOW FOR SURE THAT YOU WOULD WIN DRAG RACE? LMAO

  14. Quinn April 29, 2015

    For everyone screaming this is a desperation move, he’s been said from the beginning that there would be tidal exclusives, and this is just one of them. Why do yall want him to fail so bad?

  15. pat April 29, 2015

  18. robyn April 29, 2015

    Nyc 1 jay, I bet you that the perfomers are mostly tidal artist and those who also want to join tidal.

  19. kingbeybitch April 29, 2015

    @LOL I thought you said Tidal needed Rihanna

    LOL says:

    +2

    -1

    Vote

    LOL BYTCH PLEASE, THEY NEEDED RIRI’S NAME ATTACHED TO LAUNCH THIS VENTURE, SO NOW SHE HAS THE KEY TO THOSE SHACKLES AROUND SLAVEONCE’S NECK LOL

  20. kingbeybitch April 29, 2015

    The navy was saying “oh they had to get the Most Streamed artist for Tidal to be a success” now they’re backtracking lmaoooooo.

    • Blue Ivy Rodriguez April 29, 2015

      But even without Rihannas name attached then who would help tidal stay afloat? Definetly not the hive since they’re complaining about spending 20 dollars a month or is that an excuse not to see Bey perform the feminist anthem “bow down b******” or the same two step p**** pat hive shake she does every performance?

  21. Keri Qween April 29, 2015

    Desperate times

  22. G.U.Y April 29, 2015

    he better have some other acts cause no one is interested in his boring ass alone

    • Netta April 29, 2015

      Facts. He forever clings. Beyoncé, Kanye and Rihanna are/were his saving graces.

  23. Blue Ivy Rodriguez April 29, 2015

    Sam please post the sales of that book, it’ll be a kii because we all know the hive doesn’t like to read.

    • OMG Logic!!! April 29, 2015

      Doesn’t like to or can’t?

      • Blue Ivy Rodriguez April 29, 2015

        Does it matter? Either way they’re not going to read something that has more than 67 words.

      • Pat April 29, 2015

        Hell half the time they don’t read the articles posted here!! They struggle with the first few sentences before giving up and running to the comment section.

  24. OMG Logic!!! April 29, 2015

    Why would I sign up to TIDAL when I can just watch this concert for free on Youtube an hour after it airs? Not that I even care about it.

    • Blue Ivy Rodriguez April 29, 2015

      You do know there is a free moth trial rights? Plus the standard addition is only 9.00. Stop being cheap

  25. dydy972 April 29, 2015

    This is not a free concert people because you pay monthly the ticket for it on your monthly Tidal payment !

  26. Stephon April 29, 2015

  27. shaNoNo April 29, 2015

    This is a very bad move for Beyonce by associating with it, the app is rivalling big shots such as ITunes and they blacklist her future material. Tidal wave is receding fast nothing can repair the damage. Beyonce needs to save her brand from being affected by it, JayZ got too greedy. Rihannas Oxygen tanked due to tidal.

  28. You wanna love it right better then my funky money May 2, 2015

    Good luck Shawn Carter aka jay-z
