Since the recent $5 million class action lawsuit filed by John Emanuele of American Dollar, who claims that his band was not paid royalties, Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter has begun firing employees at Tidal streaming service. The company has recently issued a statement denying the claims in the suit, however, this hasn’t stopped Jigga from handing out pink slips.
Tidal also mentioned in their statement that they let go of COO Nils Juel and CFO Chris Hart. This another instance where the young streaming service has managed to fire an employee within their executive ranks, especially after bad press.
The streaming service still isn’t starving for subscribers with their numbers doubling since the release of Kanye’s The Life Of Pablo album release last month.
