The “dinner with Jay-Z” debate has finally been settled by Hov’s streaming company Tidal tweet.
This debate has been raging on Twitter for ages. On one side, LLC Twitter is trying to convince everyone a conversation with Jay-Z is worth more than cold hard cash.
“Dinner with Jay-Z is the better option over $500K because of the knowledge & expertise he has,” wrote one person. “He’ll give you the blueprint on being wealthy and successful. His knowledge will be worth more long term than the short term $500K.”
On the other hand, people with common sense illustrate why taking free money in a capitalist society is a great idea.
“Jay Z was already a multimillionaire rapper before this 3rd wave Investments-and-art Hov hit the scene. He got what y’all don’t- millions of dollars. It takes money to make money. Idc what advice he gives you unless the dinner comes w/him writing you a check for $500k, then,” explained one user.
The man himself has been silent on this issue, but Tidal shut it all down with three words.
“Take the $500K,” Tidal tweeted on Wednesday night.
The debate raged on after Tidal dropped its two cents.
“The conversation was so dumb that Hov had to come on here to shut it down. Hilarious,” joked one person.
“Jay-Z told LLC Twitter he would never waste a second of time with y’all. As he should,” wrote another.
In other rich people’s news, Jay-Z and wife Beyoncé recently partnered with Tiffany & Co. to launch the Love Scholarship program, reported CNN. The initiative will be spearheaded by BeyGOOD, and the Shawn Carter Foundation and Tiffany pledged $2 million to the program.
The scholarship will help students at five HBCUs: Lincoln University, Bennett College, Norfolk State University, Lincoln University and the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff.
