Jay Z Talks About His Motivation In Partnering With Twitter Founder Jack Dorsey

Just a few months after selling a majority stake of Tidal to Jack Dorsey, Jay-Z sat down with the Twitter CEO to discuss the streaming service and all things music.

During a half-hour conference the two powerhouse individuals held Monday on Twitter Spaces, Jay-Z spoke about his motivation in partnering with Dorsey, whose mobile payments company Square acquired a majority ownership stake in Tidal in May. 

“I think we were aligned in our conversation, and viewing artists and creatives as small businesses and treating each individual artist as a business,” Jay Z explained. “And the things that Square and Cash App were doing is pretty much aligned with what one does with their own brand. You create a business, take out a small loan, get the things you need to help you be successful and build it out from there. So our conversations just naturally aligned.”

Later in their conversation, Hov boasted about his talent as a curator. 

“I found so many songs [on Tidal], my playlist game is A++. I challenge anyone out there…I’m definitely, you know, in the top tier of playlist creators,” he joked.
