#TidalForAll ? Not Really ...ALL You Need To Know About Tidal

Jay Z held a launch event in New York yesterday where he was joined on-stage by A-list friends Alicia Keys, Rihanna, Madonna, Beyonce, Usher, Daft Punk, Arcade Fire, Jack White and Kanye West.

Fellow Tidal co-owners Calvin Harris and Chris Martin helped to announce the relaunch of Tidal via video link.

Jay Z told Billboard he "didn't like the direction music was going" and believed "we could get in and strike an honest blow".

Artists hosted on Tidal will be paid double the royalties offered by other music streaming services, it has been rumored.

Jay Z said: "Will artists make more money? Even if it means less profit for our bottom line, absolutely. 

"That's easy for us. We can do that. Less profit for our bottom line, more money for the artist. Fantastic."

Tidal hopes to differentiate itself from rivals including Rdio, Xbox Music, Google Play Music All Access, Spotify, Deezer and Napster by offering 16-bit FLAC format songs.

Karrueche Tran Dishes On All Things Love & Pain

It was about time Karrueche Trans's voice was heard! During the sit-down with Fix My Life Iyanla Vanzant, she described how she met Chris, and what made her fall in love, as well as knowing that he was hanging out with Rihanna but being okay with it because she thought it was innocent (at first).  She also revealed that the couple talked about having kids but she definitely wasn’t ready for that until marriage, and she had to find out about Chris’ new baby girl on social media.

1. She wanted to do the interview so her voice could be heard

I want my voice to be heard. For a long time, I kept it very mute. Just because that’s the way I preferred it, but I think there are a lot of misconceptions about me-I don’t think, I know there are. And I want to be able to clear it up and a chance to tell my story and tell my side.

Now that I’ve chosen my career, which is 

acting and modeling, which is being in the limelight-it’s very important because one time I went to an audition and I stated my name, and they were like, ‘Oh! That name sounds really familiar. Oh! I’ve seen you on TMZ.’ And her first perception of me might be of what she’s heard.

2. She met Chris Brown for the first time on a styling job

Me and Chris first met on a styling job. At the time, about five years ago, I was a personal assistant to a business loaner [in Los Angeles] and I was doing styling on the side.

I didn’t directly give him my number. I gave one of his dancers my phone number and he got my number from him.

[When he first called] honestly, I didn’t view it as, ‘Oh my God! Chris Brown is calling me.’ Of course it was different [and] new, but it wasn’t like, ‘Oh my God, girl!’ I just wasn’t rubbed that way by him.

Taylor Swift Buys Two Porn Site Domains

Terrence Howard Wants Empire To Turn Up By Using The N-word

 Terrence Howard thinks that the N-word can and should be used by anyone .. black or white and it will even give the show EMPIRE more authenticity. He thinks his character Luscious Lyon should take Empire to the next level by throwing in a couple of N-words in season two’s script to give it more street cred. After all its just a 'noun'  he added.

Terrence says the show did away with being politically correct when it featured his character dumping a 6-year-old Jamal, dressed in drag, in the trash. He feels Empire should continue going down that non-PC path.
