Why ya'll acting obtuse? Op point is these guys run around acting like they own shyt when they are really just a spokesperson.
Just like Jay-Z, Diddy is claiming the liquor he "owned" at Diageo was ripping him & wants billions; All these dudes are damn mascots for bullshyt

This is a 50+ year old man who released a music video with himself dancing around naked. He’s not a serious person and real businessmen treat him as such
I guess this is the part where we clown dudes who made close to a billion off this very set up, bc tHey nOt tHe bOsS
Make no mistake, they’re ‘complaining’ bc they’re making 500 million when they coulda/shoulda made a billion or two. So it ain’t exactly modern slavery
That Kanye -Sway interview was a jewel that perfectly explains all this. Sure you can do all this shyt yourself but it comes with cost, risk, and less reach. There is a significant advantage to building on existing infrastructure. Kanye went from in debt to being up a couple billion in 5 years by hopping on Addidas back.
But let Dame Dash influenced coli brehs tell it all these dudes lost bc tHey nOt ThE bOsS.

I’m confused. If diddy didn’t have ownership stake in the companies… how can he be suing for not getting promised investment and distribution?

That’s not the same Situation with jay z. Jay owned his product and sold parts of it. He wanted to sell half of the shares he had but the company wouldn’t open the books and wanted to low ball him on how much it was worth.Sick of this shyt
They run it up on this dumb shyt then gotta go cry in front of the court about him being a mascot

Rapper, producer and entrepreneur Sean “Diddy” Combs sued Diageo Wednesday, saying the spirits company didn’t make promised investments in his vodka and tequila brands and treated them as inferior “urban” products.
The lawsuit, filed with the New York Supreme Court in Manhattan, says Diageo North America starved Combs’ Ciroc vodka and DeLeon tequila brands of resources even as it showered attention on other celebrity brands. Diageo bought actor George Clooney’s Casamigos tequila brand for $1 billion in 2017, for example.
Combs, who is Black, said Diageo leadership told him his race was one of the reasons it limited distribution to urban neighborhoods.He was also told that some Diageo leaders resented him for making too much money, according to the lawsuit.
“Cloaking itself in the language of diversity and equality is good for Diageo’s business, but it is a lie,” the lawsuit said. “While Diageo may conspicuously include images of its Black partners in advertising materials and press releases, its words only provide the illusion of inclusion.”
Combs’ relationship with Diageo dates to 2007, when the London-based company— which owns more than 200 brands, including Guinness beer and Tanqueray gin — approached Combs about Ciroc.
In a statement, Diageo denied allegations of racism.
“This is a business dispute, and we are saddened that Mr. Combs has chosen to recast this matter as anything other than that,” the company said in a statement. “While we respect Mr. Combs as an artist and entrepreneur, his allegations lack merit, and we are confident the facts will show that he has been treated fairly.”
In the lawsuit, Combs said he intends to seek billions of dollars in damages in other legal proceedings against Diageo.

nah, Hov was saying he owns this shyt then claimed the company undervalued his brand.
Diddy is basically trying to get the same payout with his deal
Does the fact they're selling us on an image thats not real not matter to you?
I mean for fukks sake, they down OWN these brands. They don't farm the grapes. They dont own the machines or the bottlers or any part of the production.
They're LITERALLY brand mascots!
