Again.. Educate yourself on business and financial literacy. Let me break it down for you since you are a bit slow. Aspiro is the PARENT company of Tidal. Do you understand what the definition of a parent company is? It means it has the largest and controlling stake of ownership. Jay bought Aspiro outright for 56 million. Sprint has a smaller minority stake in Tidal at around 30% from reports. All the other artist owners have minor stakes in Tidal. The OWNER and person with the controlling stake of ownership is Jay Z.

I'm sure you remember the headlines:
"Jay-Z just bought into the streaming music industry. The rapper’s holding company, S. Carter Enterprises, LLC, agreed to buy Swedish company Aspiro for $56 million."

Jay-Z Buys Music Streaming Aspiro For $56 Million

Aspiro - Wikipedia

Jay Z takes on Spotify with $56 million purchase of Aspiro
Wow. You really want to ride this train huh? Aspiro was bought by Jay-Zs investment vehicle Project Panther Bidco. Where do you think Project Panther Bidco got the money to BUY Aspiro? The other fukking artists who put cash into Project Panther Bidco to BUY Aspiro in the FIRST PLACE! Project Panther Bidco itself was dissolved shortly after the purchase of Aspiro. Dumb ass.

Don't think that's true at all quote

Project Panther Bidco Ltd. was a British-American holding company. The company was founded in 2014 by Roc Nation CEO, Laurence Brown Jr.,[3] but was indirectly owned and controlled by rapper and businessman Shawn Carter[5] to purchase the assets of Norwegian technology company, Aspiro. By purchasing Aspiro, the company became the sole owner of music streaming services, TIDAL and WiMP.

I don't think any other artist put money up.

You right OP, I like Tidal, but it doesn't have the whole catalog of some of my favorite artists(Chastity Belt; The Cribs, Radkey,). With that said I hope Tidal keeps growing and I might get Jay's new album on iTunes.

Dude just stop. Jay Brown is black for one. And he works for Jay and is Jays business partner and ceo of rocnation. Jay brown is not listed as the owner. He is listed as the one who filed the paperwork. The owner is clearly listed as S carter enterprises.

Project Panther Bidco - Wikipedia

And it appears that the company was only put together for the purpose of facilitating the acquisition of Aspiro. Im sure there were other legalities and finaincial considerations involved but in the end Aspiro has been aqcuired by Jay as reported in every media and news publication.
