On October 20th, a massive Tidal benefit concert is happening at the Barclays Centre in Brooklyn.
Performers for TIDAL X: 1020 will include Beyoncé, Jay Z, Usher, Nicki Minaj and Prince among 20 other musicians (full details here). All funds collected from ticket sales will be administered by New World Foundation on behalf of Tidal.
Admirable, but when you see Bey playing concert after concert you just know she has something up her sleeve. New album before the end of the year? It wouldn't surprise me. Meanwhile, Jay Z gets to salvage the negative publicity that his under-performing streaming service has been encountering. I doubt this will do much but at least this concert has a really good line-up.
