Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj launch Feeling Myself video on Tidal

Taken from Minaj’s 2014 album The Pinkprint, the duo’s collaboration comes backed with a cartoonish Coachella-inspired video

Finally, a Tidal update which doesn’t involve a cantankerous bloke lambasting the economic restrictions of a streaming format. If the prospect of a hand-picked Coldplay playlist hasn’t been enough to convince you part with your hard-earned subscription cash, then perhaps the new video by pop juggernauts Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj will.

Taken from Minaj’s 2014 album The Pinkprint, the video for Feeling Myself now comes with a cartoonish video accessible purely through Jay Z’s music-streaming service, which has ruffled the online community considerably (as you can see here).

The video follows the two stars as they live up to every Coachella-cliche, lounging around paddling pools, wearing flower garlands (and even a native american headdress in one shot), standing side of stage and generally basking in the glamour of an unrealistically sanitised festival experience.

The video has already been leaked online. Watch the trailer below to see if you want to subscribe to Tidal.
