Diddy and Diageo Settle Dispute over Spirits Brand Diageo and rapper Sean Combs, Diddy, say they have settled their dispute over their spirits brands. The drinks giant terminated its relationship with Mr. Combs in June after he sued them, alleging they neglected his tequila brand because of his race. A joint statement on Tuesday said Mr. Combs has withdrawn all his claims against Diageo. They stated they no longer have any business together. Mr. Combs also announced he will dismiss his lawsuits against Diageo with prejudice. The rapper is facing multiple sexual assault allegations, all of which he denies. Diddy was sued by R&B singer Casandra Ventura, Cassie, in November for rape and sex trafficking. They settled out of court the day after the lawsuit was filed. Then two more women came forward accusing the rapper of rape, which Diddy denies. Diageo, the owner of brands like Johnnie Walker, Guinness, and Tanqueray, stated in June that they had been at odds with Mr. Combs since he failed to fulfill his commitment to fund DeLeon Tequila, which they bought together in 2013. Diageo claimed they invested over $100 million in DeLeon Tequila and had been trying for years to mend the strained relationship with Mr. Combs. “Even though we made close to one billion dollars over our 15-year relationship, Mr. Combs contributed only $1,000 and did not keep his word,” the company said.
