The publication also revealed that Kanye's lawyers sent another letter two weeks after the first one after the conflict failed to be resolved. 

The issues stemmed after Kanye's Saint Pablo album brought in more than 1 million new subscribers to Tidal - which he was supposed to receive a bonus for. 

The company also reportedly went back on their promise of reimbursing him for music videos - but Tidal stated that he 'didn't deliver the videos required by contract.'

Tidal have since sent a letter back, stating they 'still have an exclusive contract with Kanye and if he goes to another streaming service they'd sue him.'

This follows on from reports that the half of Kim Kardashian 'had no advance knowledge' over the information leaked on Jay-Z's new track Kill Jay-Z - which dropped on Thursday night.  

In his lyrics, the 47-year-old Brooklyn, New York native seems to mention very explicitly the giant loan that the super producer offered up to Kanye apparently confirming the rumor.

'You dropped outta school, you lost your principles / You gave him 20 million without thinkin',' raps the husband of Beyonce, 'he gave you 20 minutes on stage, f**k was he thinkin'?' 

Feud: The company also reportedly went back on their promise of reimbursing Kanye for music videos - but Tidal stated that he 'didn't deliver the videos required by contract'

The Empire State of Mind hitmaker also mentioned Kanye's 2004 studio album The College Dropout in the same song.

It seems the Kanye references also referred to the feud between the two, which reportedly flowered when Jay-Z failed to reach out to Kanye when his wife Kim Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint back in October.

During a concert in Sacramento on November 19, Kanye stopped to rant about his relationship with the music mogul.

'Jay Z — call me, bruh,' he pleaded, adding 'you still ain't called me. Jay Z, I know you got killers. Please don't send them at my head.'

After Jay-Z, Kanye went after Beyonce, and once again brought up the time he interrupted Taylor Swift on her behalf at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.

The Gold Digger singer stood up at the awards show to share that he thought Beyonce deserved the Video of the Year gong over Swift.

'Beyoncé, I was hurt. I went down seven years on behalf of you,' railed the temperamental star during his concert. 'I am putting my career, my life, my public standing at risk when I talk to y'all like this. This is a moment in the matrix, bro. Beyoncé, I was hurt because I hear that you said you wouldn't perform unless you won Video of the Year over me and over Hotline Bling'.

Though there was obviously some bad blood, Kanye, Jay-Z and Beyonce have reportedly repaired their relationship since the feud.
