Jay-Z unveiled his Tidal streaming service last week, with a star studded press conference which included Alicia Keys, Madonna, Daft Punk, DeadMau5, Nikki Minaj, Kanye West and Rihanna. Described as a premium streaming service, Tidal’s subscription prices range from $9.99 a month to $19.99.
The company claims to pay the highest royalty percentage of any streaming service, with around 75% of member’s subscription fees going to record labels to be paid back to artists and songwriters. While some have praised the model, many have voiced criticisms saying it only serves to help wealthy artists get even richer.
