Speaking about the label, Diddy noted that he would focus on creating timeless R&B music by breeding a new generation of artists and producers.

Motown CEO and chairwoman Ethiopia Habtemariam explained that the deal is a significant moment for their company as the singer is one of the most influential voices in music and culture.

"To be a part of his next evolution and album is nothing short of monumental," she added. (via Variety)
