Savannah Rapper Clay James Signs Endorsement Deal with Dennis McKinley’s Nyak Cognac

Serial entrepreneur Dennis McKinley has a knack for knowing what’s the next big thing. He’s proved this time and time again through multiple successful business ventures which consist of the CRU Lounge franchise, The Hotdog Factory franchise, Detroit Equities, Queen Virgin Remy, and Nyak Cognac. Dennis believes that Savannah rapper Clay James and his Playas Club Music Group imprint are the next big thing in music. He saw James and company put on a stellar performance during Coalition DJs “New Music Monday” event held at Stankonia Studios in Atlanta. Dennis was so impressed he began to build a relationship with Clay and eventually would offer him an endorsement deal with Nyak Cognac. Nyak has been making a lot of noise as of late and Clay James is a great edition to the team. Clay joins a star studded roster of artists and influencers who are already promoting the brand; Trina, Young MA, and TNE Jaypee to name a few. Dennis’ partners include former VP for Remy Cointreau, Patrick Charpentier, and Jerome Hyafil a former EVP, Seagram’s Spirits and Wines. This dynamic team has managed to make Nyak Cognac the fastest growing cognac brand in U.S. history with an unprecedented 1,000% annual growth rate. Nyak is now in the top 10 of leading cognacs and growing.
