Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West‘s love for Jay Z‘s Tidal streaming service may be diminishing as reports claim he could release his next solo album, presumably Swish, through tech giant Apple.

According to reports, Yeezy may have some business brewing with the company’s Apple Music launch.

ON THE ROCS: Kanye West is making changes, distancing himself from Tidal, firing Roc Nation and managing himself, with an unofficial assist from the Jenner-Kardashian clan. As for Kanye’s long-delayed album, there’s some chatter that the release will be connected to Apple Music’s launch. (Hits Daily Double)

Despite the speculation and buzzing gossip, recent reports about Kanye leaving rap star Jay Z’s Roc Nation company were shut down.

A source close to the situation told Complex that Kanye is not, and has no plans to, leave Roc Nation. To back up the source’s information even further, ‘Ye is still listed on the artist page on the Roc Nation site. (Complex)

Earlier this month, reports claimed Kanye had left Roc Nation.

On a related topic, why is Roc Nation’s Rihanna’s “American Oxygen” not exploding at retail? The track sold a meager 7k last week. Is it possible the botched Tidal launch put that big a stink on the record? But the Rihanna-Tidal relationship is pressing on, according to a recent rumor, which has the struggling service getting a window of exclusivity on her forthcoming album, tentatively titled R8. In other action, Kanye West has left Roc Nation for management, inside sources say. (HITS Daily Double)

Yeezy broke big news about his upcoming LP’s title now being called “Swish” last weekend.
