Diddy Closing Down Bad Boy Records

[KENNY DA COOKER]

First, Combs tried to buy a channel from cable TV giants Comcast outright (“They said, um, ‘No,’” he noted a little sheepishly, drawing laughter). But when it needed government approval to buy a huge stake in NBC/Universal, Comcast agreed to carry several channels owned by non-white businessmen to maintain diversity.

The arrangement followed pressure led by Maxine Waters in congressional hearings.[2] In April 2011, Comcast solicited proposals for minority owned networks.[3] In February 2012, Comcast announced distribution arrangements for four networks, including Revolt


A petition is circulating that criticizes Johnson for allegedly acquiring government monies and major advertisers for his new business venture, Aspire TV, by positioning it as a black network, when in fact, it is anything but. The petition, which is posted on Change.org claims that the network is in actuality being run by “GMC TV and GMC TV executives, which are all white.”

Def Jam could burn to a crisp for all I care..this is NOT the def jam that I or many of us grew up with..especially since this Mofo is the CEO of the "imprint"


2014's "face of DEF JAM" .............Mr. Barry Weiss

and 2chainz and Jeezy wonder why they feel "neglected" at the label

In fact nobody "black" has been calling the shots at Def Jam over almost like 2 decades now ...la reid....gabby..shakir and even jay-z all had to get the greenlight from the "PARENT COMPANY" Universal Records.......

and the last time Russell Simmons had any input was when he signed R&B singer CASE

The label that birthed many drug addictions and downward spirals....
The label where virtually every rap artist that isnt dead, has claimed to have been jerked out of money...
The label that caused several radical spiritual awakenings and overall fanatical behavior...
The label responsible for fridges being pushed off of buildings throughout the tri-state....


They will be missed

RIP Rape N U Records
