“Fuck this Dick Swinging Contest” – Kanye West Says As He Begs Apple to Buy Jay Z’s Tidal

“Fuck this Dick Swinging Contest” –  Kanye West Says As He Begs Apple to Buy Jay Z’s Tidal

Yesterday, Kanye West took to Twitter to beg Apple to buy the high fidelity music streaming site Tidal from rap guru Jay Z, an unprecedented move many people did not see coming.

“This Tidal Apple beef is fucking up the music game,” Ye said, adding, “Fuck all this dick swinging contest. We all gon be dead in 100 Years. Let the kids have the music.”

Recall that earlier on this month, rumour made rounds that Apple wanted to buy Tidal. According to CNBC, the top American multinational technology company were in ‘exploratory talks to acquire Tidal’. However, neither of the two company confirmed the story, until Kanye West went on Twitter yesterday.

The feud between Apple and Tidal had been long drawn. After the star-studded launch of Jay Z’s company, Apple was accused of sponsoring terse criticism to discourage prospective subscribers. Also, Apple reportedly barred Jay Z from streaming Drake’s performance at the New Orleans charity event in August.

When Tidal hit one million subscribers in September 2015, Jay Z took to Twitter to celebrate. “Nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists,” the rap guru wrote. “Tidal is platinum. 1,000,000 people and counting.”

Now, Kanye West wants both companies to quit the ‘dick swinging contest’ and let music lovers enjoy music on both platforms. And he also confirms that both companies are really having ‘exploratory talks’ as reported earlier this month.

See his tweets:

So if Kanye’s tweets get Apple and TIDAL to sit down or get on the phone, can we have ‘Ye rant about Frank Ocean’s album next?
