 Diddy continues to expand his ever-growing empire as he has his eyes set on his next business venture. In an interview with Bloomberg, Diddy shares that he wants to own majority of a NFL team in the future.

The music mogul, who has already expanded into everything from fashion with his Sean John line to the newly-launched Revolt TV network, has his eyes on becoming the first African-American owner in the NFL. He explained to Bloomberg,

"I love sports, but I'm more of a owner type of guy, so I have aspirations to become -- which it will happen -- I will become the first African-American majority owner," Diddy said. "Not having a small stake but actually owning an NFL team. I think it's time for that. A majority of players that are in the NFL are African-American, but there are no African-American owners. So that's one of my dreams."

Diddy won’t be the first African-American hip hop mogul to own a sports franchise however, as fellow friend and New Yorker Jay Z just sold his stake in the Brooklyn Nets. There lives a friendly competition between the two icons.

"We're definitely friends but we push each other," Diddy told Bloomberg. "It's what we're doing together to change the world."

What NFL team do you think Diddy would make a good fit for?
