On the heels of announcing his co-owned, music streaming service TIDAL has one million subscribers, Jay Z will fuse his company with another one of his companies – the rapper will hold a charity concert for TIDAL on October 20 at the Barclay’s Center, the venue for his team the Brooklyn Nets.
Jay will perform at the event called “TIDAL X: 1020 Amplified by HTC" along with superstar wife Beyonce, Prince, Nicki Minaj, Usher, Lil Wayne, Damian Marley, T.I., and more.
The concert is billed as "a tribute to fans and a call to action" and will be available for streaming on TIDAL. Tickets for the event for TIDAL subscribers go on sale today (Sept 30), and will be widely available Friday (Oct 2). Prices range from $74 through $244, and all proceeds will go to charities through the New World Foundation.
