For over three decades, Diddy has built a legacy in the music industry. Staying true to his “Can’t stop, won’t stop” motto, the mogul hasn’t let up on both releasing music and discovering new talent. As previously reported by AfroTech, he announced the latest level of his evolution with Love Records — his new R&B label that has partnered with Motown Records.
If Sean “Diddy” Combs doesn’t do anything else, he’s going to invest in the future of Black creatives. With that said, the hip-hop mogul has officially put his monetary support behind Resources For Every Creator (REC), the resource hub designed with future visionaries in mind! Thanks to a hefty investment of $2 million from Sean Combs Capital, REC Miami is set to open its doors to continue the organization’s commitment to equipping creative people with the resources, communities, and opportunities needed to pursue their entrepreneurial goals.
Diddy has become the living embodiment of his 1996 lyric, “I thought I told you that we don’t stop.” Over the past several years, the multimillionaire has been inundated with multiple business ventures outside his origins in music. However, with the announcement of a new R&B label, Sean Combs is making his return.
When we think of iconic fashion and lifestyle brands from the 90s and early 2000s, Sean “Diddy” Combs’ Sean John — founded in 1998 — is one that instantly comes to mind. Sean John was a massive success in its time, but once it was out of its prime, the clothing line fell into bankruptcy. Now, the business mogul is seeking to buy its assets with a $3.3 million bid to bring the brand back to life, Bloomberg reports.
Diddy is pushing for bigger and better for Capital Prep Harlem — his New York City charter school. On Nov.11, the Harlem native announced that the charter school will be moving to the Church of All Saints and School building, ABC News reports. The new campus allows Capital Prep Harlem’s capacity to grow from 500 to 700 students from grades 6th through 12th. The school’s expansion through the relocation is set to open the door for even greater educational opportunities for Harlem students. “The kids of Harlem should have access to opportunity and a quality education and deserve to learn on a campus that reflects the level of excellence we aspire for them to achieve,” Diddy said in a statement. “This new campus for Capital Prep Harlem reflects my commitment to empowering as many children as I can and creating spaces for the next generation of leaders to thrive in every aspect of their lives.” For the 2022-2023 school year, students will be stepping on the new campus that features “40...
Throughout his career, Sean “Diddy” Combs has made an impact. And now, as his children make their way into the entertainment industry, we take a look back on that impact. From his early days at Uptown Records to his current status as a modern-day Hip-Hop mogul, Diddy continues to be “ all about the Benjamins.” In 2020, Forbes estimated his net worth to be about $55 million, the bulk of which came as a result of his investment in various businesses. Most notably, though, the outlet pointed out that the bulk of his money came as a result of the success of CÎROC vodka, which is distributed through his wines & spirits business and a partnership with Diageo. But that net worth number doesn’t take into account his extensive real estate portfolio, which is said to be worth upwards of $35 million, according to Realtor.com. And it also doesn’t take into account his recent deals made in 2021 — which are quite extensive, to say the least. He’s announced an R&B only label, an opportunity for...
For Diddy, it’s all about the benjamins, but he seems to be a man all about his family, too. According to The New York Post, his three youngest children — Chance, D’lila Star, and Jessie James — are making a splash on the fashion scene after walking in the Dolce & Gabbana runway show in Venice, Italy in 2021. The outlet reports that the young ladies were just three of the many celebrity kids that walked the runway on behalf of the acclaimed designers. Leni Klum (whose mother is Heidi Klum), Deva Cassel (daughter of Monica Bellucci and Vincent Cassel), and Luka Bale (whose dad is Christian Bale) all did their part to make the event one for the books. But Diddy isn’t just the father to these three gorgeous young Black girls. He’s also the father of three amazing sons, all of whom are making their mark in the world in their own unique way. Whatever else can or can’t be said about him as a professional, Diddy seems to be doing right as a father. And that “right” extends to their net...
