TIDAL just revealed that Beyoncé’s new album Lemonade gained it 1.2 million subscribers.

This shows that TIDAL’s strategy of offering exclusive releases is actually working. Earlier in the year, Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo also received 250 million streams in the first 10 days, reportedly doubling TIDAL’s subscriber numbers from 1 to 2.5 million.
