United Masters founder Steve Stoute recently joined The Pivot Podcast and addressed some of the controversy surrounding Jay-Z. As BOSSIP reported, Kendrick Lamar was recently selected to headline the 2025 Superbowl halftime show. Minaj and others were livid that Young Money rapper Lil Wayne was not chosen.
Nicki Minaj Denies She Received A Payout From Tidal When Jay-Z Sold The Company
To add to her list of grievances, Minaj also revealed that she was never paid for her Tidal agreement. You may recall that the mother of one and many others were charged with helping to launch the streaming platform in 2015. For doing so, artists were promised a share in the company, but after Jay-Z sold the platform, Minaj allegedly did not receive payment.

According to XXL Mag, Stoute spent a few minutes on the podcast explaining Jay’s Superbowl choice. After doing so, he addressed Minaj’s comments and her claims that she was never paid for her Tidal agreement.
“I think in that case, what Nicki did was wrong,” Stoute stated. “To bring up Tidal, his streaming company, that he gave you equity in, that you didn’t sign the f***ing paperwork and that’s the reason why you left millions of dollars on the table, that man [Jay-Z] didn’t do nothing to you.”
Interesting… Nicki Minaj says she was not paid a penny from Tidal unlike the other artists who made millions from it. Come to find out it’s because she never signed the paperwork after JAY-Z gave her equity ‼️🤯 pic.twitter.com/gf5N5hp7cQ

Stoute also wished the “Super Bass” rapper could have handled this privately.
“That crabs in a barrel thing…we can’t do that. That’s Black-on-Black crime,” he added. “I don’t like that. I think Nicki is great, great, great artist. Very successful career. Don’t do that. Just like, let’s not do [that], do that in private,” he said.
