Fat Joe Thinks Diddy’s ‘90s Bad Boy Energy Is Long Gone

    Diddy is one of the most respected Hip Hop figures in the game today. The level of success he achieved with his Bad Boy label in the ‘90s changed Hip Hop forever. These days, Diddy isn’t as active on the music side, but people wonder if he can recreate the vibe from that groundbreaking era.

    During his recent visit to N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN’s Drink Champs, Fat Joe took some time out to speak on Diddy’s legacy in the game and while he admitted the New York legend can still make a hit, the energy won’t be the same.

    “He could never recreate that same energy,” Fat Joe said. “He can make…will Puff Daddy make a masterpiece? It’s all R&B, he is. Is it gonna be incredible, is it gonna be fly and all that? Yes.”

    “But you can never recreate, you know…” he continued saying before reciting Craig Mack’s 1994 hit single “Flava In Ya Ear.”

    Although Diddy is more active on the business side of things, the mogul still finds time to make his presence felt in the music industry. He was recently featured on “l e t. g o. m y. h a n d” off J. Cole’s new album The Off-Season where he closed the track with a moving prayer.

    The most talked about moment from the song came from J. Cole finally admitting he got into a scuffle with Diddy at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards.

    “My last scrap was with Puff Daddy, who would’ve thought it?/I bought that nigga album in seventh grade and played it so much/You would’ve thought my favorite rapper was Puff/Back then I ain’t know shit, now I know too much,” Cole rapped.

    1. He never had any music energy. That was called trickery and thievery by having his artist sign over their masters, publishing,rights to him as soon as they knew what was going on. His energy has always been in the only thing that he’s ever been passionate about doing, that fucking men physically, mentally, financially, and sexually. Fuck Diddy. (Pause)

      1. If artist are not smart enough to do the lessons andknow the game there in, then no disrespect they deserve to get took. This game is ruthless, that’s why the, Whiteman has been ganking us for years. Because we never take the time to READ THE FINE PRINT. YOU SIGN YOUR LIFE AWAY WITH OUT INVESTIGATING AND READING THEN YOU DESERVE TO GET GOT. READ, READ READ, STAY THE FREAK THE DAMN SOCIAL MEDIA

    2. The music industry is like a mafia movie. J pole (since he’s like a stripper) stepped outta line and confronted a boss. You in boss pocket now, that’s why he gets a feature in your album plus whateva alimony you owe…Puffs a Don at this point of his career. And j pole will always run to him when he’s beckoned. This is what happens during the off season get it lol

      1. You must be one of Diddy’s gimps cuz that’s gay AF calling J Cole jpole for one thing..two,Diddy ain’t done anything musically in almost 10 years and it’s always somebody’s else’s work that he takes credit for. Straight men don’t worship men like false gods so you need to chill with the diddy dickriderry OK.

      2. The reason why black people will never fully is we are our own worse enemy, we put each other down, and hate. Say what you will but if you can do it better stop talking crap and do it. Other wise sit back in your internet holes while everyone else lives life. Peace

    3. People only bring up his “sexuality” love him or hate him diddy is a brand that has made legacy money.

      1. Why bring up some bullshit like that on about buttplug engery you sound ? simple you can’t knock Diddy engery and hits in the 90s im not the biggest Diddy fan either

        1. Wtf are you trying to say? Engery…it’s energy..we have autocorrect and you still screwed that up. Diddy didn’t do shit, if you actually look back at his accomplishments, he’s screwed over more talent financially than almost any label except Suge Knight and Death Row Records. Diddy was just a had connects that’s from working with Andre Harrell so that where that came in. He’s never produced any music, The Hitmen actually did that for him and he takes the credit. He’s just using the Berry Gordy business plan to screw over talent. Diddy has done more harm to hip hop than help honestly.

          1. Calm down its a miss spelled word. You know what they were saying. I hate when people do that. I see mistakes you made also in your comment. You said Diddy a had connects. What does thst mean? You see how it feels? Its unnecessary right. I do agree with you about Diddy though.

          2. Diddy has always been overrated plus he got a crazy credits cuz he signed the checks well some of the checks they didn’t seem to be one of his favorite things to do he’s been all about himself from day one no one Loves him more than he loves himself

    4. I’m sorry but he’s one of the few men who in the 90’s had more “gender fluid” energy than me, so I have to agree with Mr Joe with this subject.

    5. Shit wasn’t anything special to begin with. He was basically remaking 80s post disco R&B music and letting his artists sing or rap over them. It’s pretty blatant. No flipping or shit at all.

    6. Fat Joe can’t recreate the 90s either. Nobody can be in their prime after their 20s and 30s are over.

    7. ya it was over 22 years ago, you know when the 90’s ended. its almost like there is eras of music.

    8. I say Puff can create a 2021 energy, he need a artist, the music game is relationships and energy. He make the best, the artist give the vocals, the studio is the sanctuary. If it was done before, it can be done again. Be patient he will be back !!!

    9. Please if you haven’t seen enough artist being ripped off if you haven’t seen what happens dealing with bad boy i would stay clear
