An official Billboard representative is now saying that Drake was supposed to be part of the widely criticized streaming service "Tidal". He apparently left just 2 days before the launch. Jimmy Iovine, an industry power player, apparently went after all the artist involved and tried to get them to disassociate. He says Tidal probably spent 10 million in marketing & says if it can't compete w/ Tidal it's right to deem it a flop.
In the words of Tidal Co-Owner Beyonce Thank God he blew it
Thank God he dodged the bullet
Thanks! Welp. I wonder who else was on the roster but pulled out last minute cause of Jimmy Iovine. And I wonder why this is the first time we're hearing about this.
