"Let's Get It," narrated by Combs and directed by Emmy Award winner Zach Heinzerling, tells the inspiring story of Combs' business success, highlighting the grit and glam of his journey.
The film features DJ Khaled and French Montana, and celebrates the determination and passion of rising stars and talented entrepreneurs including: "Moguls In the Making" CFDA / Vogue Fashion Fund Nominated Designer Chris Stamp, Accessories Designers and DJs Coco and Breezy, Jewelry Designer and Beauty Entrepreneur Kristen Crawley, and New York Harlem Dance Legend Nikko.
The film also introduces the CÎROC family of influencers, a group of movers and shakers hand-selected by Combs that includes: DJ Austin Millz, Model Eugena Washington, Musician and Philanthropist Tennille Amor, Celebrity Stylist Ty Hunter, Fashion and Entertainment Entrepreneur Lance Fresh, Lifestyle Expert Kenny Burns, Actress Mikaela Hoover, Style Host Brittany Hampton, and Sports Statistician Justin Zormelo.
