Update 4/24, 7:45 PM: Looks like 'Lemonade' is not going to iTunes after all, despite earlier reports. A Tidal spokesperson has confirmed to ELLE that "TIDAL will be streaming the album exclusively in perpetuity."

I just love that Apple, Parkwood, and Columbia don't respond to press inquiries about it but Tidal was quick to foam at the mouth about it.

Understandable given they need the subs but

slay

It'd be smart for her to make it purchase-only unless you're using Tidal

It does say "streaming".

So no one can purchase the album?

WELP, there goes that smash era i wanted. god damn it Bey

anyways, atleast we got an incredible album & movie. i'm just sad because this era could be insanely huge for her and so successful, but im sure she has her reasons for it and i understand. just a bit, let down.

EDIT: is this just streaming or what? Elle, you can't just dropped news like this and have people confused

Are you KIDDING me

I don't care. I was going to buy it so long as it was on iTunes at the very least. Now I guess I won't even be doing that much. Sorry but Beyonce will be getting no more of my coins going forward.

True, but it was a response to the question that asked if it will be on iTunes.

I refuse to believe this

poor bees
time for a new philosophy in stanning

I SAID THIS.

I said when Anti dropped that if Rih had Anti on Tidal for a limited time, you best BELIEVE the wife of the owner will go one step further and make it an exclusive.
And people were all like "lol you wish" when I was just being honest.

People were trying to say it was "wishful thinking" on Rih stans part etc. I wish I knew where I posted it.

It says "streaming"

Your threads can be so annoying.

ok so:
streaming: only on tidal
purchase: everywhere else.

right?
