Jay's jump into the tech world has been a disaster. He really needs to understand the tech world better, his PR campaigns are all wrong.

And Tidal won't get me to leave Amazon, because I actually buy albums, buy books, and rent movies not on Netflix. Most of my favorite artists are not signed to majors, so most of the time its mixtapes for me...Jay has to understand his intended market has different needs.

I hope he starts to learn the game better, because he came in very unprepared.

Would be nice if he employed black people and pulled some into the Tidal company.

We all know most of our people esoecially celebs don't care much about our own.

what % of the tech industry is black

what % of the tech industry in Sweden is black

what % of the startup industry is black

what % of the tech startup industry in sweden who happened to be at the tidal office when Jay and Beyoncé were there that day?

it's a small subset of the population, first off

but second off, it is absolutely ridiculous to expect Jay z to drop everything and everyone who was already working for an existing startup he purchased, and find a bunch of black people and immediately train them to replace the existing employees he had in place, all while rolling out the product/campaigning for it in the media. You think that's a transition a business wants to undertake? That's the expectation? Really?

lol @ the factual conclusions reached by people on the Internet based off a single picture

The office they were at is apparently the tidal Norway office...which is a 95% white country. Less than 200,000 people in the country are considered "non-white"

what subset of that population do you expect Jay to have as an available hiring pool to hire immediately because he fired all the white people who were already there?

oh he should go overseas, find a bunch of people working in a white dominated industry from other countries, and tell them to pack up their families and move to Norway to work so that shortsighted Internet critics can see the pictures they take together?

All those white folks in that pic gotta call Jay "boss".

And this is how I know these dudes are just hating. Had this been anyone else dudes would have been like #blackexcellence :banderas: but because dudes on this site have this weird obsession with Jay Z, having a bunch of Euro cacs call Jay Z boss somehow becomes an L.

Been out the country plenty of times, just not to Sweden so i guess i'm unqualified:heh:. So lets talk about the black people you met in Sweden. Go ahead buddy.

According to Eurostat, in 2010, there were 1.33 million foreign-born residents in Sweden, corresponding to 14.3% of the total population. Of these, 859,000 (9.2%) were born outside the EU and 477,000 (5.1%) were born in another EU Member State.[14][15]

The ten largest groups of foreign-born persons in the Swedish civil registry in 2014 were:[16]

  1. 23px-Flag_of_Finland.svg.png
    Finland (158,488)
  2. 23px-Flag_of_Iraq.svg.png
    Iraq (130,178)
  3. 23px-Flag_of_Poland.svg.png
    Poland (81,697)
  4. 23px-Flag_of_Iran.svg.png
    Iran (68,436)
  5. 23px-Flag_of_SFR_Yugoslavia.svg.png
    Former Yugoslavia (67,892)
  6. 23px-Flag_of_Syria.svg.png
    Syria (67,671)
  7. 23px-Flag_of_Somalia.svg.png
    Somalia (57,906)
  8. 23px-Flag_of_Bosnia_and_Herzegovina.svg.png
    Bosnia and Herzegovina (57,289)
  9. 23px-Flag_of_Germany.svg.png
    Germany (49,359)
  10. 23px-Flag_of_Turkey.svg.png
    Turkey (46,146)
The seven successor states of Yugoslavia (Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Kosovo, Macedonia and Montenegro) have a combined population of 162,136 persons residing in Sweden which would make them the largest foreign-born group.

The number of Assyrians in Sweden is about 100,000-120,000.[17][18]

The ten fastest growing groups of foreign-born residents in Sweden between 2013 and 2014 were the following nationalities:

  1. Syria (+25,923)
  2. Eritrea (+5,235)
  3. Somalia (+3,685)
  4. Poland (+3,522)
  5. Afghanistan (+3,299)
  6. Romania (+1,367)
  7. India (+1,347)
  8. Iraq (+1,232)
  9. Iran (+1,225)
  10. Thailand (+1,155)
If we accept the statistics of the government of Sweden and Eurostat as true, 90+% of Sweden's population is Swedes (who are white). the largest nonSwede groups are listed above, of which only Eritrea and Somalia are considered "black". (in before there are black people in Iraq :childplease:)

if we look at this http://www.scb.se/statistik/_publikationer/BE0101_2009A01_BR_BE0110TAB.pdf , an estimated 100,000 Africans live in Sweden. Now i don't have statistics or population pyramids for their population (they prolly don't exist) but i can be pretty confident in assuming the "black" population of Sweden is mostly young and uneducated as many are recent immigrants or asylum seekers from the last 30 years. To insinuate that there Jay-Z is a "c00n" because the company he bought didn't find someone from a community that makes up 1% of the entire population is fukking retarded:dahell:

You sound silly bro, theres ALOT of black folk in the scandanavian countries sweden, finland, norway and denmark. Alot of people have migrated from African countries to these places in the last 20 odd years.

Check out the sweden riots, blacks was rioting out there.

Dont let ignorance lead the way.

I don't get what this proves, the same can be said for England. We make up less than 2% of the population, but London is known in the UK as being an urban (black) city.

thats a big assumption. Thats like assuming Africans who immigrated to America in the last 30 years have mostly uneducated children.

The first wave of immigrants from somalia came in the early 90s, their offspring were brought up speaking swedish etc etc. So no the 2nd generation which is the current generation, are not uneducated. As they were given different opportunities than previous generations.

Lets just note that your statistics are for FOREIGN BORN residents. In that 30 years how many African immigrants do you think gave birth to swedish born children. that are not accounted for in these statistics for "foreign born residents"?

being silly now bruh, just leave it

You guys being silly now
No one considers London a black city :stopitslime:. and yes i got fam in London and throughout Europe to back that up. and how well represented are blacks in England? exactly. and the UK and Sweden is different, the UK encouraged black immigration started from the 50s to fulfil their labor shortages, most of the Africans in Sweden are fleeing wars and conflicts. i guarantee the African population is very young and less educated than Swedes
