Kanye Says Apple and Tidal Beef “Fucking Up the Music Game”

Kanye West took to Twitter today to share his thoughts on the relationship between the two music streaming services, Tidal and Apple Music. West is one of Tidal’s artist co-owners, along with Jay Z, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Jack White, and others. He said he thinks that the “beef” between the two companies is “fucking up the music game.”

West also implored Apple’s CEO Tim Cook, Jay Z, Drake, Apple Music’s Jimmy Iovine, Apple Music’s head of content Larry Jackson, and others, to get “on the phone or in a room” with him this week to hash things out. He called out both companies, saying: “Fuck all this dick swinging contest. We all gon be dead in 100 Years. Let the kids have the music.” Finally he called out Apple, saying they should write “Jay his check for Tidal now,” and that they should stop trying to act like they’re “Steve.” (Presumably, he means Steve Jobs.) You can read all of Kanye’s comments below. 

Last month, it was reported that Apple was in talks to purchase Tidal.

This Tidal Apple beef is fucking up the music game.
