TIDAL ain't shit to me and never will be shit. I don't care really I just care about Prince getting his money and what he is owed. I also hope that the Estate is able to keep his music.

yeahthat Have yet to see proof of the 3 million or a signed real deal from Tidal.

Oh I see, so there is no proof. I figured when she asked me to look up information myself Lol Its horrible what is going on with his music and the Estate. So is the Estate keeping the music. I am praying they don't give it to Jay Z and hoping that was just a rumor.

No, Tidal is not sitting on an unreleased album.

P passed away before a second album was given to Tidal.

--I will have to go back and look again but you are saying that Hit and Run 2 is the first release and Tidal is still waiting on the second.

The Court documents state that P passed before Tidal received a second album from him.

If the court let Tidal's claim move forward they would have to show proof of a signed agreement and payment. Tidal is the one saying they sent money with the last payment being in Nov of 2016. Why would the court allow their claim to go forward with no evidence. Do you not understand that the claim is going forward?

The estate is not selling the music to anyone. They are licensing it with Universal. If anything I can see Universal trying to buy everything later down the road.

There is no question of the estate keeping the music. Prince's deal with Tidal was for exclusive streaming rights for 5 years, including a few exclusive albums and purple picks. Tidal were only ever an exclusive courier and have claimed nothing more. Jay-Z offered to manage Prince's music as an advisor because they had a good working relationship, but his offer was refused.
