There’s a new ‘B’ in town..that’s Samantha Bee. She’s the recent late night host and the only female in the ranks. Meanwhile, back in Harlem USA, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is launching a new Charter school in his hometown. They’ve found new wind beneath their wings for hitting the sweet spot & lifting street value.

In a press statement Combs said “I want to impact the lives of young people in my community and build future leaders. All our children should be able to pursue their dreams. That is something I can impact with this school.” Diddy has gone from ‘good to gush’ by turning his career milestones into dream projects.

Before getting her own gig, Bee worked with Jon Stewart on the Daily Show for 12 years. Combs as the all-time rapper is teaming up with noted Educators to bring a new slice of success to students. They have used their early days in showbiz to figure-out how to crack the code or break the mold in media & music.

It’s that same tenacity that he hopes to bring to students. Maybe what works for connecting smarts to hearts might be the same as what’s helped him go from rapper to mogul. It’s in reaching people where they are and taking them to a place where whatever it takes to win, feels good. That’s the real hotspot.

The buzz around Bee these days is whether her rise will help to expand the club of female late night hosts. When asked about Stewart’s role she said “He gave me the platform for me to teach myself.” Maybe that’s how Diddy sees this effort as the next frontier in his quest to flex more eagle-high dreams.

There’s a new ‘B’ in town. With enough honey to go ‘round. That’s Samantha Bee from Comedy Central. Now with her own TBS portal. Meanwhile back on the Harlem block. Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs brings new school house rock. Both with new wind beneath their wings. Hitting sweet spot and street value things.

In press statement saying he wants to impact. Lives of young people as a ‘hood contract. To build future leaders and teams. So that kids can pursue their dreams. Something about doing it in school. Where learning is the main rule. He’s gone from ‘good to gush.’ So he wants kids to feel the same rush.

Before getting her own show. Bee worked in Jon Stewart’s comedy row. Spent 12 years doing funny bits. Now she’s ready to do the hits. Combs as all-time rapper’s delight. Teams-up with Educators in the fight. Bringing kids a new slice of success. To crack the code or break the mold after recess.

Same tenacity he hopes they gain. Knowing how to channel the pain. What works for connecting smarts to hearts. Helped him go from rapper to mogul parts. In reaching people where they are. Taking them to place of a star. Doing whatever it takes to win. A real hotspot that pops a grin.

Buzz around Bee is if her rise. Will expand the club or reach the wise. Female hosts in late night ranks. And some women in their spanks. When asked about Stewart’s mentor role. Kinda wants to say ‘bless his soul.’ It’s how Diddy sees his next milestone. Eagle-high dreams to stepping stone.

Simon Cowell is getting in gear for his return to American TV. After a two-year absence while becoming a Dad, he’s going to be a new judge on America’s Got Talent (AGT). He’ll replace Howard Stern who left at the end of the season. So Cowell and P. Diddy want to take talent to the breakout point in performance.

Diddy just wrapped-up his Revolt Music Conference in Miami. He told emerging players that “There’re levels to your hustle so you have to continually evolve and keep your feet on the neck of your dream.” He knows there’re primetime skills that are great for paying the bills and getting to the next level.

His rise to mogul began as a teenager when he ran a paper route. He later went on to intern for a record company exec while he was a Howard University student. In the #AskDiddy Q&A he shared how he found his niche to get rich. His coaching advice was on the X’s and O’s of the music game and show business.

Every industry/sport has X’s and O’s for playing the game or upping the ladder. Diddy says it’s having a gameplan to greatness that sets folks apart. Getting there is about turning a low-end task into a stepping-stone for mastering the skills to reach high-end goals. He knows what worked for him can work for others.

Now that AGT might have new judges maybe they’ll give Diddy a look. He brings crossover appeal to whatever he does. It’s like a basketball player with a crossover dribble who creates more points and fan-demonium. Diddy and Cowell know crossover skills are great for having more value and bags of money.

Simon Cowell’s getting in gear. Returning to America’s Reality-TV affair. After two-year absence off the radar. Becoming a Dad feels better by far. Set to be new Judge on AGT show. Replaces Stern not there for another go. Cowell and Diddy want to see talent peak. With breakout performances week after week.

Diddy wrapped-up music conference by Revolt. Miami was the place for a fiesta jolt. Telling folks there’re levels to a hustle of love. Giving props to dreams and the Man above. Continue to evolve good for getting a check. By keeping your feet on your dream’s neck. Primetime skills for bills on the next level deck.

Rise as mogul started with paper route. From teen to hip-hop industry clout. Later to intern for a record company exec. While as Howard University student tech. In #AskDiddy Q&A segment on finding niche. Is how he went on to become rich. Coaching advice in the X’s and O’s. For rising stars and future honchos.

Every biz or sport has its ladder up the ranks. For turning X’s and O’s into credit with the banks. But Diddy says having a gameplan from the heart. Is what sets big-timers apart. Making low-end task a stepping stone. Mastering skills by being in the zone. Works for him day to day. Good for others wanting more pay.

Now that AGT’s doing a refresh. It helps if new judges can mesh. Moving to LA seems in the book. So maybe they’ll give Diddy a look? With crossover appeal in what he brings. Like a baller with crossover dribble wings. Good for more cheers and points on the floor. Great for flying high in the money score.

Tip: The swag your skills bring to the table is not wishful thinking but says you’re ready and able.

In presidential campaigns the idea of the ‘3AM phone call’ is a big deal. Some candidates have used it as a way to separate themselves from their opponent. They might even use it as part of their political branding. Well, Sean ‘Puff Daddy’ Combs thinks 3AM is the best time to hit the brand spot.

Combs released the ‘3AM’ perfume fragrance to add to his business empire. He tells LA Confidential magazine “Honestly, I’ve never been someone who does just one thing; that’s not who I am,” He says “Life’s way too short. My goal has always been to excel in every direction and in a monumental way.”

The brand spot for Combs started as a rapper. He choose that as his ‘lane in the game’ and line of work because of his love for music. After a few years of mixing things up as a record company executive and artist promoter, Combs launched the ‘Sean John’ clothing line as the new ‘cool-sexy-swag’ in apparel.

In between photo shoots and media appearances Combs is busy running his cable channel REVOLT. It’s a place for him to keep his love for music alive. It also vibes with his brand spot as a marketing guru and trendsetting promoter. Combs is in the zone when he’s making his passion ‘do what it do.’

He’s gone through stage names as often as he’s expanded into new ventures. First it was Puff Daddy, then Puffy, P. Diddy and just Diddy. It’s like he has a name for each season of his brand-ability. Combs says his style has gone more classic, career has more purpose and his brand has become ultra global.

Presidential campaigns are abuzz. Some candidates running on what wuz. The ‘3AM’ phone call a big deal. Used as a tactic for keeping it real. A way to separate from others in the running. Something that’s part of political branding. Well, Sean ‘Puff Daddy’ Combs sees 3AM as best time for winning.

New perfume fragrance for romantic fire. And to add to his mega biz empire. Tells magazine he’s never been cut-out for one thing. Doesn’t mind having more bounce and bling. That’s not who he is from jump. Life’s short to be down in the dump. Goal to excel in every direction. By growing in industry connection.

Brand spot for Combs began as a rapper. Yea he wasn’t born with a silver platter. His ‘lane in the game’ and line of work. His love for music beyond a clerk. Mixing it up as record exec and promoter-in-chief. For many artists he was their relief. Launched clothing line before Pharrell. As new ‘cool-sexy-swag’ apparel.

Between photo shoots and another media stop. He’s busy making fashion and music pop. With an eye on REVOLT cable channel vibe. Helps keep his love for music alive. In the zone as marketing guru and trendsetter. Making his passion ‘do what it do’ like a go-getter.

Mariah Carey was once on his label. Many others coming from his stable. Gone through stage names with each venture. Puff Daddy, Puffy, P. Diddy and Diddy adventure. As if each name was for a season. But brand-ability the main reason. Classis style and ultra global hot. Career on purpose to hit the brand spot.

Diddy2Tip: Hitting the ‘brand spot’ is good for going from today’s career to tomorrow’s pioneer.
