Jay Z is pulling out all the stops to keep Tidal afloat!
Earlier this week, the Holy Grail rapper defended the slow start of his new streaming service in a Twitter rant, reminding us that iTunes wasn’t built in a day.
Now, the music mogul announced plans for a “b-sides” concert, featuring songs that haven’t been performed in a decade — or ever!
The catch? You have to sign up for Tidal to see it, of course!

The concert, set for May 13 at an “intimate New York City venue,” will be live-streamed on Tidal’s website for subscribers to see.
Fans can also win tickets to the concert by creating a playlist on Tidal and sharing it on Twitter with hashtag #TIDALXJAYZ!
The winners will be chosen based on the diversity of artists and genres as well as the quality of sequencing — so brush off those mixtaping skills, y’all!
Are U excited enough for Jay’s Tidal-only concert to sign up?
