The criticism has continued to flood in for Tidal, and the subscribers have not. It's not been the smoothest of starts for the all-star music streaming collective, and their high-profile standing has made them only easier to lampoon.
Jay Z jumped to Tidal's defence earlier this week, tackling the 'smear campaign' against the service - namely the pricing, how many believe it favours major artists, its slow progress and how it also fell from iTunes top 750 app downloads.
Launching his string of corrections with the hashtag #TidalFacts, it was only a matter of time until a parody account was set up. It's pretty amazing. Check out the best of FakeTIDALFacts below:
