Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs says in lawsuit that spirits giant Diageo neglected his vodka and tequila brands

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. :mjpls:

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. :sas2:

Combs, who is Black, said Diageo leadership told him his race was one of the reasons it limited distribution to urban neighborhoods. :mjpls: He was also told that some Diageo leaders resented him for making too much money, according to the lawsuit. :dwillhuh:


“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.” :ufdup:

Combs’ relationship with Diageo dates to 2007, when the London-based company :snoop:
— 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. :francis:

OP hates Diddy and Hov real bad, every 3 months he makes a thread calling them employees and mascot and fake entrepreneurs.

Meanwhile Hov is worth a Billy & has two of the most expensive homes in California. And Diddy spends half his life on a super yacht, and the other half split between his Cali and Miami waterfront mansions….

What really is a mascot?

Feels like a huge metaphor for reigning in hell. The King of the Dead.

I like making fun of christianity and using eurocentric art and combining it with Vodou deities. I saw some religious art at the Smithsonian in DC and said one day Imma paint me as the "Black Messiah". I wanna save my people with visual art. The Skull Face King was the identity I came up with. Mostly cause the Baron Samedi chose me to be his Avatar or Human container

I have no idea why this thread even exists.

If Diddy can prove his case in court and get money… why wouldn’t he sue??

This is business. If you feel you have a legal issue you take it to court. This is completely normal and happens all the time. Is it just bothering you because black entertainers are doing it ??

Art always speaks the language of the viewer. Its what makes it so powerful and universal. Keep slinging the paint and realize your vision.

He’s just making a reference to Diddy implying Ciroc and Deleon were HIS companies just like 50 did with vitamin water
