Jay Z Interested In Buying Prince’s Unreleased Music

Before Prince died, he was an artist owner at Tidal. Following his death, Tidal made every released song and album available for streaming. Now we learn Jay Z wants to take it a step further.

Several weeks ago,  Jay Z  flew Prince’s sister, Tyka, and her husband, Maurice Phillips, to New York for a meeting.  Jay was interested in purchasing Prince’s unreleased catalog. Sources say he made an offer of around $40 million, though this number has not been confirmed.

It won’t be that easy to get an answer, however. Despite the fact Tyka is Prince’s only full-sibling, she will Tyka will still have to get the deal signed off by all their brothers and sisters, in addition to the trust that is managing the estate.
