If Ciroc parent company Diageo decided to sell the vodka line, Diddy would stand to receive a lump sum, the amount of which would grow based on the overall value of the brand. This was revealed in a report by Forbes writer Zack O'Malley Greenburg.
Back when the deal was announced, it was said that it meant a 50/50 profit share between Diddy and Ciroc, which would max out at $100 million. Because of this, Greenburg's assertion was challenged in the comments on the story, but he defended the report.
That's true - it's not a straight equity deal, which is why it's not in the [company filing]," he said. "However, in my reporting I discovered that Diddy is entitled to a lump sum payout in the event of a sale, and this escalates along with the brand�s value. I doubt Diageo will sell, but if they do, he�s entitled to a nine-figure payday."
Greenburg suggests that Diddy's interest in Ciroc will lead to him becoming hip-hop's first billionaire.
Daron Jones of former Bad Boy group 112 posted a video on his YouTube channel where he is working on a track for Aasim. Though many might associate Jones with 112 and, as such, think of him as a singer, he has actually also been a producer for most, if not all of his time with the group.
He has a combined 28 production credits on Bad Boy releases, most commonly on the four albums 112 released on the label.
On Twitter, Willie Taylor of Day26 mentioned that Rico Love had "blessed" the group on their upcoming third album, expected later this year.
Love has an ever growing list of production and/or songwriting credits, including Beyonce's "Sweet Dreams," Dirty Money's "Hello Good Morning," Nelly's "Just a Dream" and more.
This one features the beat from the "Intro" to "Last Train to Paris," with vocals from Swizz Beatz that were featured on Dirty Money's "Yeah Yeah You Would." Download now.
