According to a statement made by a Spotify spokesperson in response to Pitchfork, his Blueprint albums “have not been available on any streaming service except Tidal for a few months now.” The spokesperson adds that Spotify hopes Jay Z will “[bring] them back soon so that his millions of fans on Spotify can enjoy them again.”

This is a developing story. Updates will be made as soon as more information is available.
