They say too much of everything is bad, but not money I guess. The Billionaire is making more billions.

American Rapper, Jay Z has announced his multi-year partnership with California-based Cannabis Company, Caliva, as he becomes their lead Chief Brand Strategist. In that respect, the hip-pop billionaire will lead in the outreach efforts and development for the brand, as well as focus on helping formerly incarcerated citizens get involved in the growing cannabis industry.

“Anything I do, I want to do correctly and at the highest level,

“With all the potential in the cannabis industry, Caliva’s expertise and ethos make them the best partners for this endeavor. We want to create something amazing, have fun in the process, do good and bring people along the way.” Jay-Z said in a statement.

CEO of Caliva, Dennis O’Malley expressed how happy he was to have Jay-Z come on board as part of the team.

“For Jay-Z to seek out Caliva as a partner is humbling and confirms our mission of being the most trusted name in cannabis,

“To find that we were in complete alignment around our values and ethos was just a home run. We believe this partnership is unparalleled in this or any business and we could not be more pleased to be working with him and have him as our Chief Brand Strategist.”  Dennis O’Malley told the media.
