Diddy was a trending Twitter topic last week after some old clips from the MTV rap competition series Making The Band went viral. Not only was the Bad Boy Records mogul accused of running a “musical prison camp,” he also faced criticism from three of the show’s former contestants: Willie Taylor, Babs Bunny and Freddy P.
On Monday (March 7), Diddy finally addressed the chatter on his Instagram Stories, writing, “STOP ALL YOUR CRYING, BITCHING & MOANING. HUSTLE HARDER OR GET THE FUCK OUT OF OUR WAY. – LOVE.”
While Willie Taylor and Babs Bunny’s assessment of the show was rather mild, Freddy P — who was a member of Da Band — accused Diddy of being the main reason he “hated fucking life.” He also admitted he’s considered suicide multiple times since leaving the show.
“Like this n-gga Puffy is the main muthafuckin’ reason why I hate fucking life, dawg,” he said in an Instagram video. “People don’t even understand. Like, I don’t even give a fuck. I’ve never been to a point where I thought of suicide my whole life, never. I mean, I’m a gangsta.”
He added, “I don’t even know how I started thinking like that. I done had it all and I fell to the bottom. How do you come back from that when you battling a giant? It ain’t got nothing to do with your skill no more ’cause your skill is 90 percent better than any n-gga that’s out there right now and the world knows it. But it ain’t your skills … the world is built on relationships.”
He also predicted a grim future for Diddy, telling him “your legacy is fucked.” As for Willie Taylor, he claimed Making The Band was set up for artists to “fail,” while Babs Bunny simply agreed they were given “shitty contracts.”
Told y’all, he’s a heartless homo that only cares about his image and ego.
You could’ve just left out that homophobic slur and stuck to the point, you know…
My bad, he’s a heartless gay dude. There, are you happy now?
Why? It’s his opinion and fuck a queer
No, don’t that would make him gay too lol
That’s how you rob a mothafucking with style
You mean r***, Harvey Weinstein style. That’s one of many reasons why Diddy is going to hell.
oh man he is ruthless. just as ruthless with bad boy records over the years. this bitch is called life.
No, you’re the only bitch here, Evelyn
I think its obvious by now this show was meant to be pure comedy and not an actual talent search. Did he dupe a bunch of dumb young green rappers ? Yes. But thats what they get for believing in a show that refers to a bunch of rappers as a “band”. That alone should have been a hint you was gonna get a check for being a clown. The show accomplished exactly what Diddy set out to make it do…make the viewers laugh. How desperate are people to seek fame instead of working an honest 9-5 ? Lets find out. Time to move on.
Hold on B…these folks thought they had a legitimate shot at a career. You can’t blame them for Puffy’s bullshit. Your attacking them for being contestants on a MTV show?? MTV has to sell shows in order to be relevant, what happens after the show falls on Puff. They signed terrible contracts with Bad Boy, stop me if you’ve heard this accusation before. There are several former Bad Boy artists who have similar complaints.
uhh, he’s right though. What serious musician / artist / emcee / singer / etc… thinks that being on a reality show made up of other artists, who sound nothing like you and don’t mesh with your style, is somehow going to end up as a successful band with some generic band title know as “Da Band”?
You think the cast of “The White Rapper Show” expected to be taken seriously as well?
Because Diddy is behind it!
Diddy should be saying “have sex with grown men behind closed doors and go straight to the top” what a human scumbag.
Amen!!!
everyone signed to sean combs had shitty deals including biggie. there was one person he was trying to make rich and that was himself.
Finally someone gets it right, Thank You.
True. Though the artist could just hire an attorney.
He should not have even talk about it! We are always trying to bury black men ourselves. Gordon Ramsay of Hell Kitchen and say and do whatnot yet white people praise their smart work.
Diddy did it first and get flamed, while Simon Cowell’s Talent show is praised.
