In a rare move apparently themed for Labor Day, Bad Boy Records founder Sean "Diddy" Combs has "decided to reassign his Bad Boy publishing rights back to all Bad Boy artists and writers who helped build Bad Boy into the powerhouse it is today," a source close to the situation confirmed to Variety on Monday.

The artists in question include the Notorious B.I.G.'s estate, Faith Evans, Ma$e, the Lox, 112 and "many more" unspecified creators. Specific details were not immediately available but the assets are said to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Impressive. I wonder if any other labels will follow suit.
