Can any oldheads tell me how did this guy even become famous? I've never heard of any famous song from him, he's like judge holden he just seems to have spawned one day
>>131858435no way out was extremely heavy in rotation
he produced people like Biggie, Craig and other rappers, ie an OG leech
>>131858435Friend of Biggie Smalls, ran Bad Boy Records, had a big pop hit that ripped off The Police (I'll Be Missing You) and became a meme for white people making fun of the Puff Daddy/P Diddy name change. Like if Suge Knight had a big hit of his own
>>131858444thishe was huge for a while late 90salthough was always seen as pop or soft r&b rap never really seen as "hard">>131858459he had several huge hits, but that was the biggets one
>>131858435outside the US he's known for- stealing a Police song- stealing from Ma$e- the wierd gay sex stuff, which is why he's not relevant anymore.at least outside the USA. Is he still relevant there?
>>131858503>- stealing a Police songthe venn diagramm of people who listen to both original and diddy's version is minutethus, this way, they also get royalties from hip-hop fans, tooits not diddy stealing, hes actually sharing
>>131858435You people can just google these thingsDespite all of the jokes these days he was a pretty massive star in the late 90s and early 2000s His biggest crime is all of those terrible adlibs on Biggie albums
>>131858503he was recently in the news for living like a prison king while inside because of paying people off, drugs, gourmet meals, niggas cleaning his shit, besides that I follow trials like his and they really didn't have half the shit they claimed to have on him, it was a massive nothingburger that boiled down to prostitution across state lines
>>131858444No Way Out is an incredible album. Puff created amazing atmospheres, and atmosphere is something you can't fake or teach. Very tasteful phrasing, pacing and effects. You always knew you'd be in for a smooth ride.
>>131858670His adlibs on Ready To Die are kino, much more appropriate than say an Irv Gotti on Ashanti songs.
>>131858435he killed hip hop
>>131858675>was a massive nothingburger that boiled down to prostitution across state lineseven when the trial happened i remember a legal expert on some news show admitting that law was an antiquated holdover from the early XX century
>>131858435Production. He made good beats and was conceited enough to always need to have his voice in songs he produced. He's a pop culture icon but not because he's exceptionally talented in any way
>>131858675prosecutors love over-charging especially in big cases like this and in the end one of the seven or so charges actually stick. sometimes like with Lil Durk not even that.
>>131858675so's R. Kelly lol. the black inmates love him because he sometimes sings for them.
>>131858885>prosecutors love over-charging especially in big cases like this and in the end one of the seven or so charges actually stick. sometimes like with Lil Durk not even that.>charging him with RICOthey had to know that was never gonna work. in the end they had nothing but murder for hire and he was acquitted of that.
The Saga Continues . . . [Bad Boy, 2001]"That's Crazy" *choice cuts*
>>131858900I genuinely thought they fucked over R Kelly then I heard they got all these extra sex trafficking charges on him and now im not sure what to think, really liked him after trapped in the closet with those funny ass cigar smoking watch alongs
Oldhead here. Yes, it seemed like he completely spawned out of nowhere at the time. Everyone just knew him as the guy who just made annoying groans, moans, and other weird ad-libs on classic Biggie tracks. Then when Biggie dies, he goes on MTV, doing his tributes to Biggie, and everyone is kind of sympathetic to the little weasel, Puff Daddy, because he was one of Biggie's friends and had a close association with him.Because Biggie was one of the best rappers of all time, people were willing to kind of put up with Puffy, Biggie's buddy, showing up TV for a while. But when his Puffy's awful "No Way Out" came out shortly afterwards, terrorizing and confusing the shit out of music lovers everywhere, it was clear to everyone that this leech had absolutely no talent of his own and was going to ride Biggie's fame and talent all the way down, forever. That Police "I'll be missing you" cover is one of the most insanely bad songs of all time.How this little freak remained famous after that continued to be a mystery for years, but now we know he was just connected to the the hollywood elite pedo blackmail club the entire time.
Gonne be out early 2028 at the latest
>>131858885It gets hard to win when the defendant hires real lawyers instead of a McWage tier public defender.
>>131858435That's Diddler. Diddler became famous for diddling Justin Bieber's tight white virgin ass before Bieber's tragic twink death. Diddler also had some hits in the 90s because white people back then couldn't tell the difference between good hip-hop and complete dogshit (which was all Diddler ever made.)Apart from the Bieber rape and atrocious music he also killed a bunch of people, got busted by the feds for trafficking baby oil and molested Usher while high on Frosted Flakes.
>>131859056i remember I heard somebody making fun of his dancing here and I thought man a lot of time has passed because now that just looks awesome
>>131859120>the difference between good hip-hop and complete dogshitThere's a difference?
>>131859120seems like a busy guy
>>131858670>>131858823His adlibs ruin this song and you can't even debate it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ev6-WQto64I(I'm indifferent about the intro which he's not on but it's not important for this discussion so I picked this link)
>>131859191Fair point.>>131859197All in a day's work for the Diddler.
is it me or is his head a real weird shape
>>131859283yakub shape
>>131858670you missed the pointgoofass
>>131859671uh huh
>>131858435>pop hit that ripped off The Police (I'll Be Missing You)That fucking song was on once an hour for like 3 years. Was the peak of Rap is not music and people hating sampling. Not the creative type of sample at all like DJ Shadow or something.
>>131859233That one too let's have some nigga make some shit up over Kashmir total bullshit
>>131859881esl?
>>131858435
>>131858435your grandma watched him perform with jimmy page live on t
>>131859927Shut your face nigger. Not music.
>>131859881dumbass didn't even get clearance for the sample. iirc sting sued him for 100% of the royalties and won
>>131859952>grandma starts raping faster than p diddy feat jimmy page
>>131859969Then what's music?
>>131860102correct. puff pays sting 2k per day, he owes 100% after sting took him to court. they’re friendly about it. sting gets paid
p. diddy getting caught has kept me going spiritually. it brings warmth to my soul, to this day. don’t know what i would have done without the news. https://youtu.be/N-dexRF2kzQ
Hip hop = Jews finding random niggers and giving them names like poop shitty or lil weewee
>>131858435Only song of his that I heard is that kashmir cover/remix/whatever, used to be on all the time back then
>>131860335it's pretty funny
