JAY-Z’s recent sell-off of Tidal will prove to be a big payday for the artists who invested in the streaming platform. Back in 2015, J. Cole, Madonna, Alicia Keys, Usher, Rihanna, and Nicki Minaj are just a few of the artists who invested and were given 3 percent in value in the new music streaming platform, and now they are looking at an $8.91 million payday. Although some may not agree with JAY-Z’s business moves it seems he's made himself and others a whole lotta bank.
