After years of pursuing other business ventures, it looks like the mogul is getting back to his first love.</p>
<p>According to<a href="https://variety.com/2022/music/news/sean-diddy-combs-love-records-motown-1235262678/"> Variety</a>, Sean &#8216;Diddy&#8217; Combs, affectionately known as Love, has announced the launch of his new R&;B label Love Records. Diddy announced that the label marks his official return to music in a deal with Motown records saying:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;[The label] will be dedicated to R&;B music and will release singles and collaborative projects from a collective of world-class artists, producers and songwriters.&#8217;</p></blockquote>
<p>He also revealed that Love Records&#8217; first project will be his very own album set to release this summer.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Music has always been my first love. Love Records is the next chapter. It&#8217;s about getting back to the love and making the best of my life. For the label I&#8217;m focused on creating timeless R&;B music with the next generation of artists and producers. Motown is the perfect partner for my album and I&#8217;m excited to add to its legacy.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Motown CEO and chairwoman Ethiopia Habtemariam expressed her excitement to be working alongside Diddy stating,</p>
<blockquote><p>This is a major moment for Motown, as Diddy is one of this century&#8217;s most important voices in music and culture; To be part of his next evolution and album is nothing short of monumental.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Over the years, Diddy has worked closely with some of Hip Hop &; R&;B&#8217;s biggest stars including Mary J. Blige, Mariah Carey, J. Lo, Boyz II Men, Britney Spears, Kanye West, Faith Evans, Mase, Total, 112 and the Notorious B.I.G.</p>
<p>The mogul and father of five stepped away from music to focus on entrepreneurship for a few years before returning with a new venture&#8211;a music reality show called &#8220;Making The Band.&#8221; The show premiered in the mid-2000s and birthed multiple music groups including Danity Kane and Day26.</p>
