Roc Nation
Paper Planes
In 2018, the company trademarked its streetwear clothing brand, Paper Planes.
Roc Nation School
In August 2020, Roc Nation partnered with Long Island University in Brooklyn to begin a program called the Roc Nation School for Music, Sports, and Entertainment. Promising lectures from high-profile musical artists, instruction began in late 2021. The school gave students scholarships and falsely told them they would "graduate without [[student] debt](/wiki/Studentdebt)". More than a dozen students from the first year said they unexpectedly owed Long Island University thousands of dollars. Additionally, students reported that, instead of being provided a recording studio, they had to build one themselves. Celebrity guests advertised to students did not end up speaking.
