Is this for realz?

In the attached link, we learn many an important detail about the future of the new Roc Nation Sports.

"[Cano] has left agent Scott Boras to sign with a company founded by Jay-Z."

"It [Roc Nation] is getting into the sports representation business through a partnership with Creative Artists Agency (CAA). This arm of CAA will be known as Roc Nation Sports."

 

"Cano said in a statement, 'I am confident that the pairing of Roc Nation Sports and CAA Sports will be essential in helping me accomplish my short- and long-term goals.'"

 

At the end of the piece, we also learn some interesting facts about Jay-Z and his very non-rap-related future:

 

"Sources say Jay-Z himself is planning to be a certified agent, first in baseball and eventually in basketball and football."

 

"In order to represent clients in basketball, he would have to give up his small share of the Brooklyn Nets."

If it is, good for him. Expand your portfolio by any means necessary. The fame won't last forever, use it to get yourself set up for the long haul.

You mean Jay-Z? I'm pretty sure he is set for life with or without his new company. I hear he is married to Beyonce Knowles, too.

people have been a bit mislead...it's actually CAA(who is partnering with RocNation Sports) that will actually be handling Cano's BASEBALL business

media is making it sound like he's being repped solely by Jay....not so, CAA has an established athlete base..
