Cordell Broadus, son of rapper Snoop Dogg, and Gushcloud International, a global digital talent and media company, are looking to launch a Web3 fund that will provide opportunities for Asian founders based outside America.

Gushcloud International has also announced its move into Web3 by signing on Champ Medici, a Bored Ape NFT owned by Broadus. This will see Champ Medici explore opportunities globally in music, gaming, consumer products, and licensing deals. It will also allow Asian brands to jump into Web3 by partnering with Champ Medici.
“As a crypto entrepreneur that has been vested in this space for a long time and has also assisted in navigating many music artists, including my father, into the community, I am now excited to work alongside Gushcloud International to represent my ape, Champ Medici, in all territories and formats,” Broadus said.
Created by Yuga Labs, Bored Ape Yacht Club was first released as a set of 10,000 computer-generated cartoon ape avatars in April 2021. Individual apes are sold on the Ethereum blockchain and have drawn notable collectors such as Stephen Curry and Marshmello.

Broadus has also inspired his father’s participation in the crypto movement by pushing him to debut his first NFT collection on Crypto.com. The collection features the rapper’s memories from his early years as well as an original song titled “NFT.”
Meanwhile, Gushcloud International has represented reality stars of the Netflix show Bling Empire, namely Kane Lim, Kelly Mi Li, and Cherie Chan.
