Jay Z Acquires Armand de Brignac

Power Move.

Jay Z has another reason to lift his glass this week.  Today, it announced that Hov acquired Armand de Brignac (Ace Of Spades) from Sovereign Brands for an undisclosed amount. Hov first endorsed the bubbly eight years ago in his “Show Me What You Got” video. In a statement confirmed on the Bitcode Prime blog, Sovereign Brands says:

“We are proud to announce that a New York-based wine & spirits company owned by the Berish family, has sold its interest in Armand de Brignac (“Ace of Spades”) Champagne brand to a new company led by the globally-renowned Shawn “JAY Z” Carter.”

    2. bronxbillyunz says:

      HE’S A GENIUS. HE USED THE FACT THAT HE WAS ON THE BROOKLYN NETS DEAL TO DO THE WHOLE ROC NATION SPORTS THING WHICH IS A CASH COW. THE FACT IS HE OWNED SUCH A SMALL PIECE OF THE NETS LIKE (0.10%), BUT HE MADE IT SUCH A BIG PART OF HIS IDENTITY FOR LIKE 8 YEARS – THAT’S A HUSTLER. I LEARNED SOMETHING FROM THAT. – THEY KNEW IF JAY-Z COSIGNED THE MOVE TO BK, IT WAS GONNA SUCCED & THE RUSSIAN KNEW THAT MEANT HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS ON TOP OF HIS INVESTMENT IN HIS POCKET IN TEAMS VALUE (LIKE 2 BILLI FOR THE CLIPPERS) SO THEY USED JAY’S FACE ON THE BUILDING WHEN HE OWNED LESS THAN 1% & THE RUSSIAN OWNS LIKE 80%+. THEY AIN’T KNOW HOV WAS GONNA USE THAT TO TAKE OVER SPORTS MANGMNT.. THEY RESPECTIN HIS MIND NOW…

  2. alex says:

    Connoisseurs will bitch and complain and cheesy upper middle class club goers will talk about ace of spades and consider consuming it to be a form of social capital.

  3. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    Still can’t compare to 50’s business acumen.

    1. alex says:

      you don’t know what acumen means.

      1. Brian B.Dot™ Miller says:

        lol

      2. Selorm Amuzu says:

        that made laugh alot haha

        1. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

          Shut up bastard. What’s so funny?

          1. Selorm Amuzu says:

            You sayin 50’s acumen is better than Jay’s hahahaha

          2. Extra Domus says:

            what’s funnier is you don’t know what you’re laughing about…

          3. Selorm Amuzu says:

            what’s astounding (Ice Cube’s voice) is you replying thinking I don’t

          4. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

            (Business) acumen is a pretty common word. I really don’t understand why you think it’s funny to use acumen or assume I don’t know what it means.

      3. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

        What would I say acumen if don’t know what it means!? Doesn’t make sense.You’re the one that doesn’t know what acumen mean.

    2. ben stewart says:

      HOW IS THAT JAY HAS MORE MONEY NOW IF YOU SAID PUFF IM WITH YOU!

      1. Epul says:

        Idk about Puff.. This guy doesn’t fully own shit. Hes just part of all these big investor groups that make him the front man because he’s always in the public eye endorsing any and everything.

        1. eastpointvet says:

          you think forbes doesn’t take this into account? diddy has nice percentages in billion dollar companies which leads him to be only behind dr dre in net worth

    3. MR. UNDI$PUTED THE MOGUL says:

      HEY GENIUS…THE 1 & ONLY GREAT BUSINESS MOVE 50 CENT EVER MADE WAS INVESTING IN VITAMIN WATER…..& EVEN THEN HE WASN’T EXPECTING COCA COLA TO COME BUY IT!!!!! SOMETIMES TIMING CAN MAKE IT BETTER TO BE LUCKY THEN GOOD!!!!!!

      1. Right says:

        Hater talk.
        Straight hate.
        So securing 250 million for 10 movies is a bad business move.
        Movie companies, Boxing license, which Jayz then follow his foot step. We’re all bad move,
        Had it been Jayz you’d say its greatest ,one by a rapper. Lol
        Haters like this is only obstacle for to improve on knowledge.
        Go head
        Keeps it up lol

        1. Epul says:

          You acting like 50 was the first to do it… If anything all credit is due to Master P.

          1. Right says:

            U an idiot
            My statement acted like nothing but refuted the haters comment 50 never made a good move to discredit him.conetxt.
            Smh

          2. cmonhomiewemajor says:

            Dame had a film deal before Master P

        2. MR. UNDI$PUTED THE MOGUL says:

          HE SECURED $250 MILLION FOR 10 MOVIES…….& HOW MUCH NET PROFIT HAVE THEY EARNED?!?!?!?! AS A MAN THAT READS FORBES MAGAZINE, LOOK AT HIS ACTUAL NET WORTH OVER THE LAST 4 YEAR’S…..WHILE JAY, PUFF & DR. DRE’S HAVE CONSISTENTLY RISEN….CURTIS’ HAS STAYED VIRTUALLY THE SAME. NOT TO MENTION WHY IS IT WHEN SOMEONE TELLS THE TRUTH ABOUT 50 CENT IT’S CONSIDERED HATE?!?!? I NEVER SAID HE ISN’T TRYING TO BE A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS MAN OR THAT HE DOESN’T DESERVE SUCCESS….HE JUST IS NOT ON THE OTHER GUYS LEVEL’S & IT’S NOT EVEN CLOSE!!! SO TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF HIS NUTS, THAT’S THE REAL wac DICKHEADS JOB!!!

          1. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

          2. MR. UNDI$PUTED THE MOGUL says:

            YOU DID BRAINLESS!!!!!

      2. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

          …..AND THEN YOU WOKE UP & FINISHED SWEEPING UP THE RAT & MICE SHIT IN YOUR BASEMENT/BEDROOM!!!!!

  7. Jd says:

    This was jay z’s plan from the beginning. He turned a nothing brand into a hot champagne brand, y’all don’t remember?

    http://hyuninc.com/post/4030902219/banned-jay-z-ace-of-spades-article

    1. tipp0183 says:

      When does he never have a plan. The difference the biggest difference between him and Nasty Nas

  8. MR. UNDI$PUTED THE MOGUL says:

    “I’M A HUSTLER BABY!!!!………..I’M NOT A BUSINESSMAN I’M A BUSINESS MAN!!”

  9. bronxbillyunz says:

    AS THE STORY GOES.. BASICALLY THEY SPEND LIKE $20 TO MAKE A BOTTLE & SELL IT FOR LIKE $300 – JAYZ’S A PROFIT. THATS AN NO BRAIN INVESTMENT

  10. K.I. says:

    This is why he’s the greatest in the history of the game. He’s gone the farthest, never fell off, and he’s innovated so much. What other nigga raps about some fucking champagne(therefore putting other niggas on) then goes on to own it? Now the little niggas cashing out with their tax checks & cracked card money are gonna be fronting Hov officially. Can’t do anything but salute him once again.

  11. LP1087 says:

    Boi got a hell of a portfolio…….and I don’t give a damn what percent he had owned w/ the Nets. Dude is a rapper. So If he had 1% and the franchise is worth at least almost a billion, add that shiet up…idiots

    1. emcee says:

      “1% of a billion is more than niggas ever seen, but still they wanna act like its an everyday thing”

  12. Jeam says:

    Amazing how anything he nuts is praise as “super” power” incredible move” those soundbites. Granted with no proven success but y’all ride his nuts so hard for these moves.
    But you’ll catch someone like 50 moves all the time, even bigger than this, reaction is talk about he fell of so he trying to stay relevant by making business move, some not even reported. Lol
    Nights stay win Jayz nut hairdo on their chin. Lol

    1. GetReal says:

      maybe cuz jay-z still puts out quality music and didnt fall my nigga

  13. Kingpin says:

    I have a feeling B. Dot has a heart locket with Jay-Z’s face in it.

    1. Jake Zero says:

      No. Jigga’s face is tattooed on his chest like Pac had of the African woman.

  14. Marko V says:

    The sad part is Jay is a brand who always saw himself as a brand and now I listen and lose a little of my appreciation for the artistry because he was telling me his calculated he would be. I do t kno if the music was genuine or somethin that hustled me @remarkoble1

  15. that’s a score for black people foreal. we needed that.. thanks hov.

  16. Apontay says:

    I FIND IT HALARIOUS HOW DUDES TRY TO ARGUE WHOSE MOVES ARE BIGGER (JAYZ,50, DRE) . IF YOU MADE IT OUT THE HOOD & CONTINUE TO BE SUCCESSFUL THATS SPECIAL. BLACK EXCELLENCE!!!

    EASTNEWYORKSOWN!!!

  17. "hustlemania" says:

    SMH THIS SITE IS TURNING INTO A JAY Z FAN PAGE

  18. Donn says:

    Everybody stop dividing black achievements. 50, Jay and Diddy are all successful and we shouldn’t shit on any of them or compare one mans success to the other. Let’s just admire them all and let them stand as a symbol to the things black ppl can do in this day in age. Stop segregating everything

  19. Eric Davis says:

    another alcohol business venture? God do these rappers have ingenuity?

  20. Eric Davis says:

    on the other hand you got Queens bread 50 Cent’s Platinum Mine? am I right?

  21. Mec-One says:

    He doesn’t talk about what he’s going to do. He does it and let everybody else talk about it!

    1. bronxbillyunz says:

      THAT’S DEEP

    2. Game aint FREE! says:

      that’s the DIFFERENCE between Jay and 50!

  22. b r z a says:

    this is what “rappers” talk about doing and this is what Jay is “really” doing

  23. Von says:

    *Throws up Dynasty sign*

  24. hilroycahier says:

    One thing is surely impressive:

    Hov’s ability to compensate for his lack of an explosive rap career.
    Jk, I feel hov but I’m just throwing chops for my long lost homie nas haha hov is money i know.

  25. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    He owns only a very small percentage of the company. So much ado about nothing.

    Shoutout to 50 though, the real Boss in the game. Not that fat boy.

    1. ben stewart says:

      Can you read?

  26. Greenbergs says:

    ya know i always wanted to try a bottle of that shit, now I wouldnt even give that shit a thought…not that I don’t like Jay Z its just that it must be garbage if jay z is buying it out..on that note how is duss doing??

  27. Jose Perez says:

    Unstoppable, genius, power move? LOL he bought a champagne company. Holla @ me when he is able to sell his company for 3.5 Billion or more like Dre

  28. Billis Keysbee says:

    all i got to say is one thing.
