Instead of complaining he should just come clean in Biggies death. He's 100% involved...

So can't prove any fault in the actual business and contract so resort to claiming Racism.

The suit also claimed the UK-based drinks giant devoted more attention and offered better support to other celebrity-backed competing brands, such as George Clooney's Casamigos and Ryan Reynold's Aviation Gin, while failing to meet its promises for investments in Combs Wines and Spirits.

I am sure they did, why? Not because of colour/race.

Because I have at best heard this guy's name, I will bet if you walk out go to Shibuya crossing ask 10,000 people if they know him you will be lucky if 1% even heard his name.

Do the same with George Clooney's and Ryan Reynold's and the vast majority will have heard of them and a good number know exactly who they are.

This guy isn't even in the same league when it comes to world recognition.

Displaying what you don’t know is in no way an indication of others’ lack of knowledge.

OK Bob ask your Japanese work colleagues if they have heard of this guy and the other 2.

If you have Japanese in law's ask them.

My son in in the entertainment business, I asked him, his reaction was as predicted, heard this guy's Name but could indetify him or anything he did. But knew the others and could say plenty about them.

The world is not America, and especially not Gangsta rap etc ..

But Hollywood movies are everywhere.

What surprises me the most about this article is how many stars are in the liquor business.

But would they know Clooney or Reynold?

And the answer is far likelier yes that Coms.

Why is it so hard for people to admit?

He does a certain type of music one a certain subculture in Japan and much of the world listens to.

The two others are in movies the type most watch around the world.

You are not making any sense. How is this in any way relevant to the article or have any connection to Japan for that matter?

How do you manage all the bees in your bonnet?
