The associated press reports today that Sean 'P. Ditty' Combs and publishing giant - Random House, Inc have settled a lawsuit. Random house alledged that hip-hop mogul never paid back a $300,000 advance for a memoir that Combs never completed.
According to the court papers, Combs signed with Random House in 1998 and then arranged on his own to collaborate with Mikal Gilmore, a contributing editor to Rolling Stone and author of the acclaimed Shot in the Heart. A manuscript was to be completed by Dec. 15, 1999, but the deadline passed and, in early 2000, Random House notified Combs that he was in breach of contract and that the publisher wanted the money back. | source:USATODAY.com
