*Just last month, Prince was pulling his catalog from all streaming services in his continued antipathy toward all things Internet. Including Jay Z’s Tidal.
2day, however, is a new day.
Prince is making Tidal the exclusive home to his upcoming record “HITNRUN,” to be released Sep. 7.
“After one meeting, it was obvious that Jay Z and the team he has assembled at TIDAL recognize and applaud the effort that real musicians put in2 their craft 2 achieve the very best they can at this pivotal time in the music industry,” Prince said in a statement. “TIDAL have honored Us with a non-restrictive arrangement that once again allows Us to continue making art in the fashion We’ve grown accustomed 2 and We’re Extremely grateful 4 their generous support.”
“Both Prince and Tidal share the belief that all creatives should have the opportunity to speak directly to those that love and support them,” said Jay Z in a statement. “This partnership with Prince represents TIDAL’s philosophy in its truest form, a 1 to 1 connection and direct delivery of artistry to the world.”
