When life gives you lemons, you pray for a new album from Jay Z and Beyonce. That's exactly what TIDAL is aiming to do with falling numbers in the Apple App store and Kanye West flip flopping on Twitter. All of their promises for exclusive content like an intimate concert with J. Cole and a fight to bring the power back to the artists have not swayed and held onto enough people to believe in their cause. 

Bey Z to the rescue. DJ Skee, who first broke the news that Jay Z and Beyonce were working on a joint album, just stated on his Red Pill show that the album is almost done. It makes you wonder if TIDAL was holding onto this news in case their stats didn't improve. Just thinking about this album brings in a slew of other questions like production, features, and videos--all ideas that distract you from TIDAL's possible demise. It will be a matter of time before we find out if the Illuminati Roc Familia and the Hive can keep TIDAL afloat.
