Hip-Hop Rumors: Were Quincy Brown Empire Rumors True?

WERE RUMORS OF DIDDY BANNING HIS SON FROM APPEARING ON EMPIRE A SCHEME TO GET PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT HIS MUSIC?

Rumors were circulating that Diddy had banned his son Quincy from appearing on everybody’s new favorite show ‘Empire’ after a disagreement between he and Lee Daniels, the show’s co-creator, over use of his music.

Sources are revealing that may have been a maneuver to get people talking about Quincy’s music.

E! New reports:

“Quincy was never actually offered a role on Empire. He did have some very preliminary talks, but Diddy’s son never tested for a role, and wasn’t offered a part. There was never an issue regarding his music rights. Timbaland has been Empire’s music director from the get-go, and the show uses his library of music, as well as original songs that are sold on iTunes.”
