Rolling Stone Exposes Diddy
Rolling Stone Magazine conducted a 6-month investigation into the life of Bad Boy Records music mogul Sean ‘Diddy Combs, interviewing 50 of his former employees, colleagues, friends, and peers in the music industry to seek validity to the endless allegations of abuse, s-xual assault, and violent behavior towards multiple accusers throughout his 30-year music career, now filing lawsuits against him.
Notorious BIG Planned To Leave Bad Boy
One topic addressed in the article seemingly confirmed a rumor that claimed late Bad Boy rap star Christopher “Notorious BIG” Wallace allegedly had plans to leave Diddy’s (known as Puff Daddy at the time) Bad Boy label, due to Wallace’s alleged business dispute with Combs surrounding his music publishing; shortly before his March 1997 murder. Rolling Stone states, that this information was according to insiders they interviewed during their investigation.
Rolling Stone states “Multiple reports allege Wallace had been preparing to leave Bad Boy shortly before his death. It didn’t help that Combs had been fighting with Wallace’s attorneys, who were trying to wrest back the rapper’s publishing rights. “I will never give it up until I’m dead and my bones are crushed into powder,” Combs told the lawyers, according to The Big Payback. “[Biggie] was absolutely about to leave Puff,” hip-hop photographer Monique Bunn says. “I know for a fact [because] he told me that.”
Another source adds, “Everybody wanted to leave Puffy. Everybody leaves him.”
Diddy Capitalize Brand
Sources also claimed Combs allegedly used Notorious BIG death to sell records and capitalize Bad Boy’s brand. It highlighted Wallace’s ‘Life After Death’ album released only weeks after he was shot and killed in Los Angeles on March 9, 1997.
Brookshire, the former director of publicity for Bad Boy, traveled in the same SUV as Wallace to do press events the day before he was murdered, allegedly stating Combs denied her request for time off to grieve the artist in the wake of his death allegedly.
She claimed, “Combs denied her request for time off to process her grief. Instead, just two weeks after the slaying, she says, Combs ordered her to focus all efforts on Wallace’s upcoming album, Life After Death. Combs demanded it be “Number one, number one, number one, number one, number one. Top 10, top 10, top 10,” she recalls. (It sold nearly 700,000 copies in its first week.)”
This is one of several alleged damning stories about the disgraced rap mogul by former friends and colleagues in the article. Thoughts
