Yesterday (December 3), Puff Daddy expressed his frustration over the grand jury’s verdict in the case against New York City police officer Daniel Pantaleo in the death of Eric Garner. The Hip Hop entrepreneur, who appeared weary in a video uploaded to Instagram, declared that “this is not right.”
“This ain’t right. This is not right. To continue to let this go on. It’s enough. It’s enough, man,” Puff said in a video uploaded to Instagram earlier this week.
The Bad Boy Records founder also included a caption with his Instagram upload. He stated that “enough is enough” and added that artists need to “step up and be better leaders.”
He later stressed the importance of being well organized and having a real strategy.

“I can’t take it anymore! It’s Enough, and enough is enough! Honestly my emotions are all over the place,” Puff wrote. “We as artists, myself included, all have to step up and be better leaders in our communities. It’s a hard burden to bear, but we have been chosen whether we like it or not. We need to do whatever we can in a POSITIVE way, to help unite people of all colors in this injustice!
“In order to be successful, it is very important that we have a well ORGANIZED, STRATEGIC plan,” he added. “This is super important in order for us to make change!! REAL organization, REAL strategy and a TRUE commitment to not forget and move on like we usually do when the news stops reporting. This has to stop and we as a people are the only ones that can stop it. I truly do not have the right to preach, but I do have the right to speak. #EricGarner #MikeBrown #UNITE”
