Beyoncé and Jay-Z were snapped going for a walk along the beach Thursday with their Hamptons pal, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey.
All three kept it casual to beat the summer heat while Out East: The 51-year-old Brooklyn rapper rocked a white tee, track pants and sneakers, while his pop star wife, 39, donned a black tee and shorts, along with a COVID-19-guarding face mask.
Dorsey, 44, pounded the pavement in a white tee, shorts and sandals.
Dorsey’s digital-payments processor Square is in the process of buying majority ownership of Jay-Z’s music streaming platform, TIDAL, for nearly $300 million, the companies announced back in March.
While Hov will be essentially handing over control of Tidal to Dorsey, he’ll be compensated with a seat on Square’s board of directors, as well as $297 million through a mix of cash and stock. Jay-Z bought TIDAL in 2015 for $56 million.
“TIDAL started with the idea of honoring artists by being artist-owned and led, focused on an uncompromised experience of the art. It’s refreshing and right,” Dorsey said in a tweet. “The vision only grows stronger as it’s matched with more powerful tools for artists, inclusive of new ways of getting paid.”
“Given what Square has been able to do for sellers of all sizes and individuals through Cash App, we believe we can now work for artists to see the same success for them, and us. We’re going to start small and focus on the most critical needs of artists and growing their fanbases.”
Hopefully the business deal won’t impact the trio’s Hamptons-based friendship. Last year, the threesome were joined by Bey and Jay’s twins, Rumi and Sir, as they cruised the Hamptons in a luxury yacht.
