Presently, major label signed artists (like Jay-Z) receive $0.007 per play on Tidal, while unsigned artists receive $0.0179 per play.
Based upon a US average minimum wage of $1,260 per month, 6% of Tidal's unsigned artists successfully yield the 29,302 plays per month required for them to earn the equivalent of minimum wage.
