Mariah Carey Desperately Trying To Make Ex-Fiancé James Packer Jealous Cavorting With Younger Man On The Beach

Who Looks Gay By The Way

Mariah Carey unleashed the desperate this week. After being humiliatingly dumped by ex-fiancé, billionaire James Packer, the desperate singer took to the beach in Hawaii for a PDA (public display of affection) with her younger back-up dancer. It screams mid-life crisis. By the way, Mariah's back-up dancer is kind of screaming gay. I got that impression.


Mariah Carey's costumes do not flatter her figure
 
Carey, 46, is seen awkwardly posing with her healthy looking leg in the air over the arm of 33-year-old Brian Tanaka (Mariah's lost a lot of weight, but still, be careful you don't sprain his arm. I'm kidding LOL). Carey has been criticized a lot these past few weeks by the Daily Mail and a number of blogs for using excessive amounts of Photoshop on her Instagram photos in trying to appear thinner.

But back to the main story. Carey trying to make Packer jealous is childish. The man is decent looking and a billionaire. Women are throwing themselves at him. He could flaunt a supermodel on his arm that would put Carey to shame, but so far he's taken the high road, unlike Mariah...

Mariah Carey Looks Back On Wedding Dress From Cancelled Engagement With Sadness After Being Dumped By Billionaire James Packer While Her Current Husband Knocks Up Aspiring Star

 
Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey, 46, has went from highs to low this year and I'm not just taking about her drug habit. For months Carey was engaged to Australian billionaire, James Packer, 47, who dumped her recently due to the singer's greed and crazy behavior. Carey was once committed to a mental hospital for months, after she tried to kill herself. She is known in the industry for being difficult and making strange, time consuming, burdensome requests of people.  

Carey is seen trying on wedding dresses in a promo for her strange upcoming reality show "Mariah's World" which is already being panned based on pre-release clips. Carey's famous friends tried to talk her out of the reality show, as based on what they (and now the public) have seen, it will not help her image or career. However, as Carey's last two albums flopped and her concert tickets are not selling well, she assumed a reality show would put her back on the map. Not all publicity is good publicity.


Mariah Carey and James Packer. Since dumping Carey, Packer demanded he be cut out of her kooky "Mariah's World" documentary.

Asked about the "Mariah's World" clip of her in a wedding dress, in light of Packer dumping her, Carey stated, "All of those moments are bittersweet, but you have to just focus on whatever you're focusing on and keep it moving" and "everything happens for a reason." No, everything does not happen for a reason. Sometimes people do unethical, selfish and greedy things that brings calamity on them. Other times innocent people end up hurt and wronged via the poor, unethical choices of others. 

Carey, for instance, is still married to comedian Nick Cannon, 36. Carey, who is unbearable and insufferable, harassed and nagged him so badly with her crazy behavior, he fled. However, it was wrong of him to abandon his family, as the couple have 5-year-old twins. Carey, while married to Cannon, commits adultery and became engaged to a billionaire whose money she openly lusted after. Cannon, still married to Carey, knocks up his girlfriend, Brittany Bell, 29. What an ungodly mess of a situation by Carey and Cannon. It was bound to bring trouble.

 
Brittany Bell is pregnant with the baby of Nick Cannon, who is Mariah Carey's husband

Bell is 6-months pregnant with Cannon's child, which came as a shock to Carey, who was looking to him to rekindle their relationship after being dumped by Packer. Bell was Miss Arizona 2010 and competed in the Miss USA beauty pageant. She is also an aspiring rapper. Cannon, who is the host of "America's Got Talent" was sought to help her establish an entertainment career.

While all of this is going on, Carey is trying to fight Packer, who only knew her for a year, for $50,000,000 of his money she does not deserve, referring to it as an "inconvenience fee" for calling off their engagement. How greedy and awful. Carey doesn't know how long it took Packer and his family to earn that money, get she is greedily fighting like a junkyard dog in trying to unethically take it. God doesn't like ugly!

Mariah Carey Greedily Demanding Ex-Fiancé James Packer Pay Her $50,000,000 For Inconveniencing Her With Engagement He Called Off And To Keep Quiet About Something Awful He Did To Her Assistant

She Should Be Paying Him For Putting Up With Her Crazy Behavior

 

Mariah Carey and James Packer

Some women are just greedy. Pop singer Mariah Carey is one of them. At age 18 Carey prostituted herself into a record deal at Columbia Records in 1990, then married its mafia connected CEO, Tommy Mottola, for money and career advancement. Now she is at it again. With her career on the skids and money going down due to significantly less income coming in from her music, Carey is behaving like a greedy gold digger with ex-fiancé, James Packer.

Packer, an Australian billionaire, ran for the hills when he realized Carey is constantly sipping crazy juice and spends money like an heiress, though she's not one. TMZ is reporting that Carey is demanding her ex-fiancé Packer, who just dumped her, pay her $50,000,000 for inconveniencing her with an engagement he has now cancelled (like Carey's recording contract). Carey is also griping about financial promises Packer allegedly made her. Based on TMZ's claims, Carey is blackmailing Packer, claiming he promised to pay her for her silence based on having done, "Something awful to her assistant." 

Another complaint is she uprooted her life in New York to move to his native Australia and Los Angeles, costing her income. However, she was living in Los Angeles with her ex-husband, Nick Cannon and Carey's career, much like her voice, has fallen flat. Carey is not making big money anymore. Her last two albums flopped and she has not had a hit in years. She is currently not apart of the music landscape.

Carey receives music publishing checks that breakdown to a few thousand dollars per month, her Las Vegas residence is on ice because of her vocal problems, which means she has not received full payment and her South American tour was cancelled due to her singing issues and decline in popularity that spells poor ticket sales for any artist, making it unprofitable for the promoter.


Mariah Carey

Packer, called off the engagement after witnessing unsupportive, disturbing behavior from Carey. Packer just realized Carey has serious mental issues that were created due to her time with Mottola. At one point, Carey was under psychiatric care in upstate New York. Carey's second husband, Nick Cannon, also complained of her mental problems before leaving her. 

Carey is also a massive spendthrift, which would spell bad news for Packer’s $4 billion dollar fortune. Packer is also concerned about his property holdings and media empire that could face turbulence in the event Carey started being disruptive in not getting her way. For years I have heard terrible stories about Carey’s behavior in the entertainment industry that made people’s lives and jobs very difficult. She is not easy to work with, is very selfish, has cost people and companies millions of dollars and there are many complaints of what her self-centeredness does to those around her on a personal level.

Carey is in the Kabbalah Center cult and she like other members Eva Longoria and Selma Hayek, among others, were told to marry very wealthy men in industry because the sect wants to, "Control the world's resources." Longoria married a very wealthy Mexican man, Jose Antonio Baston, who presides over the multi-billion dollar vast media empire Televisa. The company Televisa is the largest media company in Latin America. Hayek married Francois-Henri Pinault, who owns Kering, a company that controls many luxury goods brands and select sports holdings.

It should be noted, due to Packer's wealth and influence, the sick Hollywood cult Scientology had successfully pursued him for a time. Packer was a confirmed member of Scientology. However, when Packer realized how insane they are, he bailed on them a few years ago. Then, Kabbalah went after him through Carey and it too has turned into a disaster.

Mariah Carey Dumped By Fiancé James Packer And Is Trying To Keep $10,000,000 Engagement Ring


Mariah Carey and James Packer

Things are on another downward slide for fallen singer, Mariah Carey. First two of her albums in a row flopped. Then she was dumped by cheating husband, Nick Cannon, who left her stating she is very mentally ill and he fears for their young twins safety. Then, her Las Vegas residency turned into a disaster due to vocal and emotional problems, leading to many dates being cancelled, leaving fans very disappointed and upset. When Carey finally did hit the stage, critics and fans complained about the subpar show, her shoddy vocals and terrible costumes that did not accentuate her fuller figure.

Things seemed to be looking up, as she got engaged to Australian billionaire, James Packer, began a bizarre reality show and began dabbling in the studio again...only for things to quickly turn terrible again. Woman's Day magazine in Australia published an article stating Packer dumped spendthrift Carey, who greedily wants to keep her $10,000,000 engagement ring. If an engagement is cancelled, the woman should give back the ring, especially one of high monetary value. Carey is known for being materialistic and spending excessive sums of money. 


Alcoholic and drug user Mariah Carey

Carey's reality show is also flopping and her Las Vegas residency is in doubt once again. Carey also cancelled much of her South American tour due to poor ticket sales. Carey has no hit, is not popular right now and the public knows of her vocal problems and spotty attendance record to her own shows. Therefore, poor sales were to be expected.

Carey is being cruel to her sister who is struggling with HIV and became violently ill this year. Allison Carey has been imploring sister Mariah for help, but she has turned her back on her. Now that Carey is down in the dumps again, maybe she will recognize in part, how bad Allison feels and help her. There's no excuse for turning her back on her sick sister.

IT'S OVER: James Packer dumps Mariah Carey

Oct 27, 2016 - 71 readers laughed - Billionaire casino mogul James Packer has dumped fiancé, pop star Mariah Carey after falling out over her new reality TV show and extravagant spending. The tycoon is understood to have walked away from the singer as she prepares to expose much of her glittering life on a new reality TV show, allowing her to keep the $10m diamond engagement ring he gave her in January. 

“It’s all over,” confirms one close family friend. “James had huge reservations about Mariah’s new reality TV show and the fact that she was willing to expose their lives to the world.” The news comes as no great shock to friends and relatives of the Packer family who have had reservations about the relationship ever since James started wooing the flamboyant singer in Las Vegas last year.

Mariah, 46, created tension within the family after refusing to attend James’s sister Gretel’s 50th birthday in Sydney earlier this year, and his mother, society matriarch Ros Packer, struggled to connect with the singer. There have rumours for weeks that the glamour couple were experiencing difficulties, particularly as Mariah devoted much of her time to a reality TV show about her life, which James, 49, was reluctant to participate in...

Mariah Carey Is Looking Worse For Wear


Mariah Carey looking rough
 
Fallen singer, Mariah Carey, is looking worse for wear again. The 46-year-old singer is struggling with two flopped albums in a row, a poor selling Las Vegas residency with several missed dates, a messy divorce from actor Nick Cannon and a challenging relationship with fiancé, James Packer. 

I saw the pictures posted above on Instagram and it wasn’t Carey’s best moment. Her face looks like it is retaining water from excessive alcohol consumption. Regardless of the context of the pictures, it is not a good look for her. Carey’s brother Morgan spoke out about the poorly kept secret that the singer is a massive alcoholic. She began hitting the bottle hard when she married former music mogul, Tommy Mottola. He introduced Carey to gourmet food and she fell into the liquor bottle face first.

Mariah Carey Marrying Billionaire But Will He Get A Prenup

 
 
Mariah Carey first shot to fame in the early 1990s after having an affair with millionaire music executive, Tommy Mottola. Carey married the older former manager turned music CEO, after he gave her a record deal in exchange for their sexual affair that began when she was 18-years-old and tore his family apart. The marriage financially enriched Carey, but ended in divorce after a few short years. Mottola has been trying to get revenge ever since.

Carey, 47, is now engaged to another older billionaire, Australia's James Packer, 48. Packer's net work is assessed at $5 billion dollars. The question is, did Packer ask Carey to sign a prenup. There are wildly exaggerated estimates online stating Carey is worth $500,000,000. However, Carey's net worth is closer to $100,000,000 and it is dependent on certain factors. Carey spends lavishly on private jets, mansions, sports cars, designer clothes and diamond jewelry. Carey has not had a hit in a decade. Therefore, she turned to a Las Vegas residency to bring in money, but has missed a few show dates and is struggling with average attendance and bad reviews.


Mariah Carey and James Packer
 
Packer has a lot to lose if he marries Carey and the marriage implodes. Do I think the marriage would last? No. I get the distinct feeling trouble and disaster are coming. Carey is quite the character, who constantly makes outrageously excessive demands and unreasonable requests of people, she expects those around her to immediately fulfill or she acts like a spiteful child. An intelligent businessman is not going to put up with that for long. Carey is trying to hold the crazy in until they get married. Then the real Mariah will come out. Just ask Nick Cannon, who headed for the hills citing her crazy behavior.

Packer was a Scientologist, having become involved with the sect at the insistence of Tom Cruise. Packer was the richest Scientologist in the world. Packer reportedly left the Hollywood cult in 2008. Now he's engaged to Carey, who is in the worst Hollywood cult, Kabbalah. Hollywood cults have a tendency of preying on very wealthy people or those with massive assets, to get their money and property, while usurping their influence and so-called power.

Untalented Madonna's Jealousy Of Talented Entertainers Such As Prince, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey And Celine Dion

 

Madonna
 
Madonna has always been jealous of talented stars, such as Prince, Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston. Madonna initiated nasty disputes with each of them, issuing mean spirited, jealous comments, with details from some of the incidents seeping out into the public domain. It's amazing how self-deluded some people can be. Madonna has no talent, yet is constantly warring with entertainers who have an abundance of talent, jealous they have great gifts for their craft, as Prince, Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston so prominently displayed. 

Madonna made nasty comments about Celine Dion and Mariah Carey as well, over their singing abilities that attracted a significant amount of public attention. Madonna also resented the attention fans bestowed upon Prince, Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston. Madonna tried to date Prince and Michael Jackson, but when they realized the terrible type of person she is, they backed away from her. Michael Jackson stated Madonna was always jealous of the manner in which fans cry and faint at his concerts. Madonna hated Jackson's status as the biggest pop star on the planet. However, even in death, Jackson still easily surpasses Madonna. 

Madonna resented Prince's immense musical talents and the fact he just did not want to have her in his life anymore, after they dated and worked together. Prince even rolled his eyes during a Madonna performance years ago, which was caught on camera. After working with her in the studio under contract and actually hearing her real voice, Prince branded Madonna untalented and desperate for publicity. Prince was a private man, who did not pursue publicity in the way Madonna repeatedly does, so she was not someone he wanted around all the time. 


Prince
 
Prince also prided himself on being nice, when Madonna is known to have a nasty mean streak that surfaces out of nowhere. People don't want that kind of nasty negativity around them. Madonna also kept pursing Prince with her crazy Kabbalah cult, even in the last days of his life. Earlier in his career, Madonna had Prince convinced he was Italian (as she is), which he later found out is not true. Prince is actually black with French Creole ancestry based in Louisiana. 
  
Since the time of Prince's tragic death last month, Madonna and her self-proclaimed Hollywood Illuminati, the Kabbalah cult, have been making plans on the 2,000 unreleased songs he left behind, with no will found. People in the industry have been talking about it, as her behavior is like that of a vulture.

In the 1990s, Madonna asked her label to arrange a public date with Michael Jackson, when she was trying to leech of his fame. Due to the fact Jackson would not have sex with her on the date, Madonna went around Hollywood slamming him as "gay" and childish. Madonna mocked him in terrible ways. Madonna set out to humiliate him in front of his peers for sexually rejecting her, which was petty and pathetic. She also resented Jackson's fame, which was at its height in the 1980s, on a level Madonna never achieved.  


Michael Jackson and Madonna
 
Madonna hated Whitney Houston due to her voice and beauty that enthralled the public. Beginning in the 1980s, Houston was called "the Voice" due to her exceptional singing abilities. Houston's voice was quite rare and blew the public away. Madonna could never sing and hated Houston for it. Madonna's hatred grew even more when her ex-boyfriend, Kevin Costner, pursued Houston for a movie, branding her the prettiest singer in the world. Costner had dumped Madonna (many men have done so) who became jealous at how well he treated Houston.

Costner offered Houston the lead role in the 1992 movie "The Bodyguard" which went on to become a massive box office hit and the best selling soundtrack of all time. Madonna had heard about the film in production and asked Houston to back away from it and Costner. It ticked Madonna off no end, as she wanted to become a bigger pop star and was attempting to be an actress, but failed miserably at it. Madonna also became jealous over Costner's statements about Houston, believing he had a crush on beautiful Whitney, who was dating Bobby Brown, then married him. 

And so what if Costner had a crush on Houston. America is a free country. People can like whomever they want to and spend time with them. It's nobody else's business. Madonna confronted Houston over Costner's flattering public statements (about Houston) and the actor having given her the lead role in the hit film, to which Whitney sarcastically stated, "Kevin says hi" and walked off. Houston was not a fan of Madonna, branding her creepy and a stalker, for tracking her down and confronting her over "The Bodyguard" (a role that was never Madonna's to begin with) and Costner, who had dumped her (Madonna). Madonna targeted Houston during and after production on the film, approaching her like a jealous crazy person. Madonna complained to Costner about it as well.


Whitney Houston
 
I've learned through Madonna's crazy Kabbalah Center stalking and approaching me on a regular basis over my copyrights that Madonna is a madwoman that thinks everything is hers, was meant to be hers, she should own everything and it's a cosmic mistake if someone else ends up with things she covets. So much so, it leads to copyright infringement and in other incidents commissioned criminal behavior that constitutes hate crimes, assault and criminal copyright infringement (Hollywood allowed the thieving trash Madonna to take over the industry and to its detriment, as sales are in the toilet).

People in the industry have stated Madonna thought Costner should have offered her the lead role in "The Bodyguard" and that she blamed Houston for "stealing" the role from her. However, the role was never Madonna's for Houston to "steal" it and Costner had a right to offer it to anyone he saw fit for the part. As a songwriter or moviemaker, you want the absolute best talent for your work, as it can make it that much better. Costner made the right choice giving the part and song remake of "I Will Always Love You" to Houston. 

I can't think of anyone who would have been a better fit for the movie. Houston was the right person at the right time for the project. Costner's good looks and acting ability, combined with Houston's beauty, talent and stage presence were a perfect match. It was very believable. They created a great piece of cinema.  


Whitney Houston
 
Had Madonna starred in "The Bodyguard" the movie would have been a massive flop. Firstly, Madonna is not attractive and has no presence on screen (never mind she thinks she's some great beauty like Megan Fox). Secondly, Madonna cannot act or sing. Can you imagine Madonna trying to sing "I Will Always Love You" which is the song Costner brought to Houston and asked her to record as the theme song for "The Bodyguard." Madonna would have missed every single note in the song and screeched out a terrible rendition of "I Will Always Love You" that would make dogs run for cover. 

Madonna is not a real singer. Madonna is known for having background singers in the studios sing her lead vocal parts as well, then producers and engineers turn down her lead vocals, while making theirs more prominent during the mix, to hide the  fact she can't sing. It's one big scam. And the records still show she's a weak, marginal singer.

"The Bodyguard" movie was not the first time Madonna went around terrorizing a movie maker. Madonna stalked, harassed and threatened Academy Award winning director, John Schlesinger,  who blamed her terrible behavior for the heart attack that killed him. Madonna harassed him into casting her in the film "The Next Best Thing." Schlesinger, should not have been working with trash like Madonna. She is untalented, unprofessional and evil. 


"The Bodyguard"
 
Madonna, who knows nothing about filmmaking, took over the set, began making crazy demands and threats in dictating how the film should go, sending the director a barrage of insane, menacing faxes and telephone messages on a weekly basis. Madonna likes to insanely commandeer people's projects and turn them into crap. It is the equivalent of a crazy, screeching, hyperactive monkey taking a paintbrush to a Picasso. 

When the released film "The Next Best Thing" was trashed by critics due to Madonna's profound lack of talent and the neurotic mess she injected into the project, she sent the director even more menacing threats and abuse via an excessive stream of faxes and telephone messages that prominently display her mental derangement. She did the same thing to the director of another flopped film she starred in, "Body Of Evidence." 

Madonna is certifiably crazy, as she can't sing, dance or act, but has displayed this raging jealousy and ill will towards genuine singers and musicians with talent, whom she deems has or will usurp her. However, what is there to usurp. Madonna is untalented and made a career out of thievery. She was never in contention to be the best entertainer. Thus far, world history records Michael Jackson as the top entertainer. Elvis, the Beatles, Whitney Houston, Barbara Streisand, Mariah Carey and Celine Dion have also passed Madonna in every way. Madonna looks like a raging psychopath going around  harassing, terrorizing and abusing people.


"The Bodyguard"
 
Bombarding unwilling people with threading, abusive emails, faxes, texts and telephone messages (as Madonna does) is behavior psychiatrists associate with deranged stalkers. Madonna keeps doing this to various people, as she has severe mental disorders. Madonna keeps bothering people who do not like her. Only crazy people do such things.

Madonna is a stalker. When former boyfriend, Dennis Rodman dumped her, she began targeting his new love interest, Carmen Elektra, whom the basketball player later married. When Madonna began pursuing a then aspiring director, Guy Ritchie, she began stalking and harassing his then girlfriend, Tania Strecker. Now that Ritchie has married someone else after ditching Madonna, she (Madonna) has begun stalking his new wife Jacqui Ainsley (Newspaper Reports Madonna Has Hired Private Investigator To Stalk Guy Ritchie, His New Wife And The Couple’s Children Confirming Previous Site Claims). Learn to leave people alone.

Mariah Carey's Brother Slams Her As 'Evil Witch' For Refusing To Help HIV Positive Sister Who Is Dying And Needs Brain And Spine Surgery

 
Mariah Carey and brother Morgan Carey

Morgan Carey, 51, the brother of singer, Mariah Carey, 45, has slammed her as an "evil witch" for refusing to help her HIV positive sister, Alison Carey, 54, who is dying. Alison, a prostitute, contracted HIV years ago. Alison's health condition has worsened, necessitating brain and spine surgery. Mariah is refusing to financially help Alison with the cost of surgery nor will she speak to her. Morgan stated, "Your sister is dying and she's struggling and where are you? You think you are so fabulous, but you are a witch."

 

Mariah Carey and brother Morgan Carey in the 1990s

Alison's prostitution fed and clothed the family, including Mariah before she became famous. It also paid for studio time during the early part of Mariah's career, aiding in the singer making a demo tape she later gave to married music mogul, Tommy Mottola. Mariah broke up Mottola's marriage of 20-years, via an adulterous relationship. Mariah then wed Mottola, 20-years her senior, in a marriage that did not last long. 


Alison Carey
 
Mariah is being a real sanctimonious hypocrite with her sister, when what she did with Mottola is basically the same thing - whoring out one's self to a man one does not love for financial advancement (Mottola gave Carey a record deal and sizable advance due to their affair). Mariah needs to get off her high horse and help her sister. Scorning people with HIV is not cute. It is downright ugly.

Mariah Carey's brother brands singer an 'evil witch' as he claims she won't pay hospital bills for their dying, HIV-positive sister 

Published: 09:23 EST, 13 March 2016 | Updated: 21:35 EST, 13 March 2016 - Mariah Carey's older brother Morgan has blasted the diva 'an evil witch' over claims she is refusing to pay for medical treatment for their dying sister. The 51-year-old called his superstar sister ‘heartless’ for refusing to help pay for their HIV-positive sister Alison's brain and spine surgery. He spoke about their ill sister's plight to The Sun on Sunday, before blasting the Fantasy singer for ignoring them, insisting the superstar believes 'the world revolves around her'...

Morgan urged the hitmaker to acknowledge the family woes in an appeal made via the publication: 'Your sister is dying and she's struggling and where are you? You think you are so fabulous, but you are a witch.' He said he has been by Alison’s side during her health problems and flew from Italy, where he lives, to go see her, fearing she would die – but claims Mariah has never visited her in hospital. He adds: 'Thankfully, Alison had a miraculous recovery but now she needs brain and spinal surgery and will be going into hospital any day.'...

Jay Z And Madonna's Floundering Tidal Sued For $5,000,000 Over Copyright Infringement In Not Paying Artists While Inflating Their Own Sales To Go Number One On Billboard


Madonna (also known as Gollum), DeadMau5, Kanye West and Jay Z at Tidal's ill-fated launch
 
A year ago, greedy entertainers Jay Z and Madonna, among others, bought the Aspiro music streaming company for $55,000,000 and tried to rip off Spotify's business model and software. They promised to pay recording artists more money than every other music streaming service if they signed up with the company. However, they lied. The company immediately began to struggle and was dead on arrival. A few months after Tidal's abysmal launch, Apple's long awaited music service debuted and finished off Tidal. 

A year later, mainstream publications, as well as popular blogs, have branded Tidal a massive failure. Tidal is being financed via loan and personal funds to the tune of $55,000,000 which is a heavy debt load (in addition to operating costs). Tidal is not making anywhere near enough money to sustain itself or cover costs, hence their desperation manifesting via deliberate leaks, botching the releases of major record labels, to place said titles on their failing music streaming service. They are operating under the proviso that once an album is leaked, the record company will be forced to try to recoup costs via streaming on Tidal.


Jay-Z

This week, news broke that Tidal has been sued for copyright infringement regarding not paying artists. Yesh Music LLC artists, the American Dollar, sued Tidal for streaming 116 of its songs, reportedly 13,000 times and not paying them the proper royalties they are owed under standard industry agreements, which constitutes copyright infringement (The Judiciary Report did warn Tidal would rip artists off). 

As usual, rather than own up to their illegal conduct, crazy liars Jay Z and Madonna are shifting all blame to someone else. The dumb duo are blaming the historic Harry Fox Agency in Hollywood for the gross underpayment (However, the band stated Tidal refused to pay them for many months, then lied about their numbers). Much like Tidal shifted all blame for the botched release of Rihana's "Anti" album, forcing record label Universal to brand them "incompetent" and further state, "This whole thing is absurd, we would have taken responsibility if it were our error." Jay Z and Madonna are too old to be this juvenile. It is a sign of mental problems.

Tidal Under-Reporting Record Sales Of Non-Owners To Shortchange Artists 

Madonna the Gremlin

Lawyers for the band, the American Dollar, are stating Tidal is reporting fake numbers to them, in a scam that results in artists being paid less money. I can confirm Tidal is doing this, via keeping two sets of numbers/accounting records, regarding how many times each song is streamed on their service. 

For instance, if Tidal streams an artist's song 500,000 times, the accounting/royalty statement to the artist will state they streamed it 50,000 times, allowing the greedy company to skim profits off the top. They play the song a maximum amount of times and due to fraudulent reporting, only pay a fraction of what is owed to the artist, because they are lying about how many times they actually streamed each tune. It is enabling Tidal to pay less money to the artists, via misrepresenting the number of streams.


Rihanna  

This constitutes several federal crimes. Tidal would have to be audited by a computer specialist and accountant to gain the true figures. Only Tidal's owners have access to the real numbers for their own music and that of the artists who have signed up with the service. Everyone else is being lied to by the company, except its entertainer owners such as Rihanna, among others, whose streams are being grossly inflated to illegally place higher on the Billboard charts. 

This has resulted in Rihanna deceitfully equaling Michael Jackson's record for the most number one singles in music history and it is criminally being done through fraud, robbing the late music legend of a musical honor that he legitimately earned. It's is disgusting and disgraceful. She can't even sing or dance properly for that matter. 

Jay Z Previously Busted And Slammed For Sales Fraud 

  
Jay Z and former Tidal CEO Peter Tonstad

This is not the first time Jay Z has been busted engaging in a sales scam. Years ago, the Billboard chart company, caught Jay Z red-handed bribing retailers to run the same copy of his CDs through the register multiple times to enable him to debut at the top of the charts. For example, when a customer bought one copy of a Jay Z CD, retailers were being paid to run the same copy through the register 3-7 times, which ridiculously inflated his sales. Billboard slammed him for it, as it corrupted chart results, giving him number ones he did not earn, while depriving other artists of their rightful place in music history.

I know the history of the music industry very well and what truly goes on. There were times in music history (up until Soundscan) where music retailers would phone in how many records, CDs and CD singles they sold. The numbers they reported would be completely inaccurate and inflated due to bribery, where some artists are concerned, to help them secure undeserved number ones on the music charts (see: Madonna).

Other scams include manipulating RIAA sales. Some people get excited when they hear their favorite artist's album has gone platinum. However, some record executive, such as Tommy Mottola, formerly of Sony, a man with ties to the Genovese mafia, routinely inflated sales of artists such as Mariah Carey, whom he later married after an adulterous affair for career promotion by the fame hungry star. 

During the 1990s, you could go in any record store in America and find an excessive amount of unsold Mariah Carey CDs on the shelves, more than any other artist. That's because all the RIAA required for a gold (500,000 copies) or platinum (1,000,000 copies) certification is that the label ship the corresponding amount to retailers. You don't actually have to sell that amount to get the certification.

While Mariah Carey was a very gifted vocalist (her voice is very damaged now) Mottola's scam resulted in her having greater sales than Whitney Houston, Barbara Streisand and Patti Page, when she did not sell more albums or singles than the latter. She sold more than Madonna, but not Houston, Streisand or Page. Then, Mottola ripped off Carey, pocketing huge amounts of her actual sales and related products. Mottola, who was in his 40s, saw in an 18-year-old Carey, a great voice, a desperation for fame and a sucker he could exploit (but then she embarrassed him to the world).
  
Madonna, Jay Z And Rihanna Using Tidal To Inflate Their Own Sales 

Jay Z and wife Beyonce

Jay Z, Madonna and Rihanna are using the computer staff at Tidal to inflate record sales. It is apart of the reason some of the original staff fled (Tidal Loses Three More Executives). The first notable incident occurred via Rihanna's "Anti" album, where Jay Z lied stating the album had been streamed 400,000 times on Tidal, the same night Samsung bought and gave away 1,000,000 copies of the flopped album for free to her fans. Those numbers don't add up nor did Nielsen or Billboard corroborate or authenticate said fake numbers from Tidal. 

A new controversy has erupted, as Tidal has falsely claimed Kanye West's album entitled "The Life Of Pablo" which they botched the release of, has been streamed 100,000,000 times in two weeks, which is an outright lie (it's not even West's most talked about or popular album). Adele and Justin Bieber weren't even streamed that much in two weeks and they are currently the top music sellers of 2015 and 2016 (so far). 


Kanye West

Someone then pointed out to Tidal that Drake's album "If You're Reading This It's Too Late" which had way more buzz than Kanye's release, was streamed 17,000,000 times in two weeks on Spotify. Therefore, how did "The Life Of Pablo" which has no real buzz, stream 100,000,000 times in two weeks. They falsified the sales. When called out on the maneuver they were shoveling, trying to inflate sales as usual, Tidal backpedaled and stated "The Life Of Pablo" was streamed "millions of times" not "100,000,000 times."  

To make matters worse, Tidal did not report the streams to Billboard, as it is on the low end of the spectrum. This means for the first time in his 13-year rapping career, West has an album that did not chart on Billboard, which is a very negative development for a major label artist. "The Life Of Pablo" is classified as a flop. Tidal are a bunch of unprofessional, crazy jokers who aren't real business people. They are messing up artists careers. Billboard stated, "In respect to TIDAL and Kanye, for whatever reason they're not reporting that title [The Life of Pablo] to us...I don't know the reason behind it, I just know that they're not" - Silvio Pietroluongo, Billboard VP, Charts & Data Development.

Jay Z and Beyonce

"The Life Of Pablo" was deliberately leaked, so as to make it easier to be placed on Tidal, without the record company becoming enraged, believing it an actual leak. However, Def Jam has lost over $20,000,000 due to Jay Z's poor business acumen and dirty tricks in trying to keep a dead website alive (Tidal) via another leaked release ("The Life Of Pablo"). 

The irony for West is it took him 3-years to record the album, which is a significant period of time for making a studio recording. West also spent a significant sum of money to make the album, at many studios, using a number of guest stars. This all came from record company funds he has to recoup before he sees any money in profit. And as the album is being streamed on Tidal and at poor royalty rates, West will not recoup the costs of making the indulgent "The Life Of Pablo." His next album will have to sell double the usual amount to get him out of the red at the record label, whom he now owes a small fortune.

Con Artists And Thieves


Usher, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Madonna, Deadmau5, Kanye West, Jay Z and J Cole (also known as Hollywood's self-professed "Illuminati")

Jay Z and Madonna, among others at Tidal, are terrible con artists and thieves. They have nothing legitimate to contribute to the marketplace, always looking to get an illegal payday off someone else's hard work. They are always looking for someone to rob and rip off. There is something wrong in their brains. The mechanism that regulates people's conscience, sense of decency and ability to accept their fair share, not seeking to take everyone else's, is woefully absent in them. It is a mental defect found in psychopaths and greedy criminals with compulsions regarding money. 

Jay Z and Madonna have been repeatedly sued for years by many people for ripping off, robbing and shortchanging others. They are never satisfied and have absolutely no conscience or decency. If they were given 99 percent of the money in the world, they would still be furiously and feverishly searching the other 1 percent's pockets for money to take. They are not business people. They are criminals running scams and perpetrating acts of criminal fraud that is actively defrauding others.

Jay Z and Tidal Are Reportedly Facing a Lawsuit Over Failing To Pay Artist Royalties (UPDATE)

8 hours ago - UPDATE: Tidal just issued a statement to Complex about the lawsuit and said that they are up to date on all royalties owed to Yesh Music, LLC. TIDAL is up to date on all royalties for the rights to the music stated in Yesh Music, LLC and John Emanuele’s claim and they are misinformed as to who, if anyone, owes royalty payments to them. As Yesh Music, LLC admits in their claim, TIDAL has the rights to the Master Recordings through its distributor Tunecore and have paid Tunecore in full for such exploitations. Their dispute appears to be over the mechanical licenses, which we are also up to date on payments via Harry Fox Agency our administrator of mechanical royalties. 

The entire catalogue in question streamed fewer than 13,000 times on TIDAL and its predecessor over the past year. We have now removed all music associated with Yesh Music, LLC and John Emanuele from the service. This is the first we have heard of this dispute and Yesh Music, LLC should be engaging Harry Fox Agency if they believe they are owed the royalties claimed. They especially should not be naming S Carter Enterprises, LLC, which has nothing to do with Tidal. This claim serves as nothing other than a perfect example of why America needs Tort reform. 

When Jay Z launched Tidal last year, he did so on the idea that the streaming service would be the first of its kind to take care of artists with higher royalty payouts. After the official launch event, Jay even tweeted that Tidal was going to pay every artist, writer, and producer featured on the service a 75 percent royalty rate, which was higher than any other streaming service in the industry, at least according to Hov. Now, it appears that Hov and Tidal are in some serious hot water over their royalty system, as they're reportedly facing a $5 million class-action lawsuit from Yesh Music, LLC and John Emanuele​ from the band, the American Dollar. 

The lawsuit, which was uploaded online to the site Scribd here, claims that Tidal streamed 116 of the band's copyrighted songs without paying back any royalty payments in the process. The firm Garbarini Fitzgerald P.C. reportedly filed the lawsuit in the United States District Court Southern District of New York over the weekend, according to the uploaded documents. As of now, neither Jay, Tidal, or Tidal's parent company, Aspiro, which is also named in the suit, have responded to the case. 

We spoke with the lawyer in the case, Richard Garbarini, on the phone, and he confirmed that the suit was filed over the weekend. Over the phone, Garbarini said that the band received no royalties for their work until this past Nov., and that the group asked months ago to have their music removed from Tidal. As of today, the band's music is currently still available to stream on Tidal. "I find it fairly amazing an organization that claims it was going to pay the artists, systematically does not pay the artists," Garbarini said. 

Tidal reportedly used faulty numbers to make payments to artists and may have undercut the money they owed to artists by as much as 35 percent, according to the filed documents. The band claims that they were expecting monthly reports on royalty payments and usage of every song on the service, but nothing was ever sent, according to the lawsuit...

TIDAL Refuses to Reveal Stats for Kanye’s “The Life Of Pablo,” 100 Million Streams Likely Wrong

Posted 5 days ago - 2016-02-23 - Minutes ago I clicked on a story from Pigeons and Planes reporting that anonymous sources within TIDAL have revealed that Kanye's new album, The Life Of Pablo, has so far been streamed 100 million times exclusively on TIDAL in the two weeks since its (quasi)release; we can assume that means at least 50 million times in its first week. 100 million? 100 MILLI?!?!?!?...

For comparison, Drake's IYRTITL album held a previous streaming record by racking up approximately 17 million streams of If You're Reading This It's Too Late in its first week, and those official numbers came via Spotify, a service with approximately 25 million paid subscribers and an additional 40 million free users for 65 million total users. So that would mean that Kanye accumulated roughtly three times more streams than Drake in his first week on a streaming service 1/26th the size of Spotify. (TIDAL is currently reporting 2.5 million subscribers, about one million of those new subscribers driven there by Kanye's album.) If those kind of stats seem too good to be true, it's because they likely aren't true. 

Unfortunately, Pigeons & Planes seems to have simply made a mistake in their reporting. According to the original TMZ story they cited, the TIDAL source told TMZ that the album has been streamed "millions" of times, not "100 million times." "Millions" could indeed mean 100 million, or it could mean two million, which would be a mere 98 million off. 

"Sources connected to Tidal tell TMZ ... "The Life of Pablo" and its debut at MSG has already been streamed millions of times in less than two weeks, which is a record for the service." - TMZ
Regardless of who reported what number from where, the confusion around TLOP gets at a deeper story. As fate would have it, I didn't see P&P's story when it first went up because at the time I was on the phone with Billboard's VP of Charts & Data Development, Silvio Pietroluongo. Among the many topics we discussed (full interview coming later), Pietroluongo confirmed that while TIDAL has shared streaming and sales numbers for other artists and releases, they've so far refused to divulge any stats around The Life Of Pablo. 

"In respect to TIDAL and Kanye, for whatever reason they're not reporting that title [The Life of Pablo] to us...I don't know the reason behind it, I just know that they're not." - Silvio Pietroluongo, Billboard VP, Charts & Data Development...


Tidal nears one year of mediocrity and failure

In Music by Joel Freimark / February 25, 2016 - Just under a year ago, Tidal hosted one of the more awkward launch events ever known to man, as a handful of multi-millionaire musicians stood uncomfortably and lost on stage — all seeming to hope one another knew what was going on. In many ways, the event can be seen as the ideal precursor to the brilliant “how do I walk on stage” performance from presidential candidate Ben Carson just a few weeks ago, and the Tidal launch told us all we needed to know about the company. As they approach their first anniversary, things have only gotten worse, and someone should have the decency to put the clueless, unimaginative company out of its misery...

Then, of course, there was Tidal’s promise that they’d be using the platform to help unknown artists achieve stardom. Used by pretty much every music-related startup, this line is as old as “these photos are just so I can show big time producers what you look like,” and as of yet, not a single artist has been vaulted to any real status by the platform. This in itself isn’t entirely Tidal’s fault, as you need a large, active listener-base to achieve this, and they have neither.

Oh wait, that Kanye guy got a TON of hype when Tidal completely botched his album release — and nobody knew about him or Rihanna before they joined Tidal, right? The only thing Tidal achieved with their arrogant, unprofessional style of “exclusive” releases was incurring a massive amount of hate from the very people they’re trying to convince to pay them every month for a service that is done better elsewhere. 

But arrogance runs deep in the lifeblood of Tidal. Even before their launch event, they attempted to garner sympathy and subscribers in an absurd manner. Their pre-launch video was nothing short of unintentional comedic genius and led to countless, well deserved parodies. In short, Tidal was attempting to put forth the concept that they were “the little guy.”

Note to Jay Z, Madonna, Jack White, Kanye West and the long list of multi-platinum millionaires in the video: You can’t make people feel bad for NOT giving you $10 a month when you yourselves haven’t had to consider the value of $10 a month in well over 10 years...
