Both rappers released diss tracks that took blistering personal shots on Friday night. "He doesn't have the heart for the lying, disrespect, and animosity it requires to make an effective diss track," Pierre wrote. Later in the track, Drake references Cole's diss track and apology. At the end of the track, Lamar samples a 1994 Tupac interview to simulate a conversation between the two rappers. "6:16 in LA" also parodies Drake's song titles, which often feature location names and timestamps.

This year's meeting is being closely watched by Wall Street because of a planned discussion about whether to start letting team owners sell stakes to private-equity firms and other institutional investors. So who stands to benefit if the NFL owners agree to a rule change? AdvertisementThe sports investing experts who spoke to BI pointed to private-equity firms with established histories in sports investing, like Dyal HomeCourt, Arctos Partners, and RedBird Capital. Lutsky also thinks a rule change could prompt more financial industry newcomers to try to break into the world of sports investing.

☆ FaZe Clan's plummeting valuation shows how risky it can be to bet your company's future on influencers
  + stars: | 2023-10-26 | by ( Dan Whateley | Geoff Weiss | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
While esports as a category has broadly struggled with monetization , FaZe's difficulties stemmed more from its reliance on just a few influencers for revenue. The company makes money through revenue splits with its talent, brand partnerships, and esports winnings. For FaZe, that revenue is often concentrated on the backs of a few big stars. "This was too nascent of a business model to be publicly traded with too much 'key person risk' around influencers," Chapman said of FaZe. GameSquare has subsidiaries like merchandise brand Mission Supply Co., influencer-marketing platform Sidekiq, and streaming data analytics firm Stream Hatchet, all of which could potentially be applied to the FaZe brand.
