TIDAL has passed 1 million paid subscribers. Not bad for a fairly new independent streaming music service with no free tier. TIDAL officially launched just 6 months ago, but brought some subscribers from Aspiro when Jay Z bought that company for $56 million.

“Nothing real can be threatened, nothing unreal exists,” tweeted Jay Z, adding “Tidal is platinum. 1,000,000 people and counting.”

To celebrate, TIDAL is hosting and streaming a special concert in Brooklyn, N.Y. on Oct. 20th. “Let’s celebrate 10/20 Brooklyn,” he tweeted.

TIDAL X: 1020 is a huge charity concert featuring headliners Beyonce, Jay Z, Nicki Minaj, Prince, T.I., Usher, Lil Wayne, Fabolous and others alongside up-and-coming artists including Alessia Cara, Bas, Justine Skye and Flatbush Zombies.
