Done deal.
JAY-Z has agreed to sell the majority of TIDAL to Square, Inc. for an aggregate consideration of $302 million. Last month, Jack Dorsey’s company announced that it would be acquiring the streaming music service, but the deal didn’t actually close until Friday (April 30).
Square will take 80 percent ownership of TIDAL, along with licensing deals with major record labels. The existing artist shareholders will continue to be co-owners including Beyoncé, Rihanna, Kanye West, Madonna, Alicia Keys, and Nicki Minaj.
JAY-Z is expected to join Square’s Board of Directors, while Square executive Jesse Dorogusker will lead in the interim until a new Head of Tidal is found. The deal allows Square to extend its platform to musicians by giving them systems, tools, and financial freedom to reach their goals.
