Diddy x Louis Vuitton. Remember the days when hip-hop and hi-end luxury goods companies like LV and Gucci co-existed in harmony? Well those days are long gone. Lately, LV has been going after the likes of T.I. and Diddy like they were some 21-year old kids selling knock-off purses in a Singapore shopping mall. A couple months back T.I. couldn’t release his video “Swing Ya Rag” because of the unofficial use of Gucci and LV and now Diddy just signed papers to settle a law suit over Danity Kayne using LV in their ads and videos without permission. The deal calls for Diddy to take out the LV product in the video and a undisclosed cash settlement. Via: Bossip

Yeti says: I remember the days when companies paid artists to use their products in videos and ads. Now it’s the other way around LV? I guess LV doesn’t care if they lose out on sales from those Danity Kayne fans. Although I’m curious how many fans are actually left.
