Puff Daddy participated in a question and answer session Saturday (October 17) at his Revolt Music Conference and was asked how people can get involved in the 2016 presidential elections.
“See the things that’s tricky about politics is there’s so much bullshit with it,” Diddy said, according to HipHopWired. “We started Vote or Die and…and from the community we’re in, we’re not with hearing too much of the bullshit. So that’s why we get disenfranchised, [we’re] disconnected because nothing that they’re saying actually relates to us.”
The Bad Boy Entertainment boss founded Vote or Die in 2004 to encourage people to register to vote. The non-profit has not participated in an election since.
“Vote Or Die, and getting out the vote, those things [were] laid out there so people could understand about the process,” he says. “We started Vote or Die, and the whole process was all full of shit. The whole shit is a scam.”
Diddy says that he still wants people to participate in the Democratic process, but to have a proper perspective of politics.
“At the end of the day I’m not telling you not to vote,” he said. “But I’m saying be a realist and know that they motherfucking kicking some bullshit up there.”

In other breaking news, the sky, is in fact, blue.
The sky isn’t blue, YUP. It just appears to be blue. Sorry about that.
HAHA get em Soren
I love how you guys roast the Idiots lol
No shit, most sane people know that voting in its current form is near pointless. Without accountability your vote is only worth as much as your preferred candidate’s integrity and as we all know, honesty isn’t exactly in high supply when it comes to politics. It also doesn’t help that a lot of voters are ignorant morons that care more about backing their “team” than actually making an informed and intelligent decision.
Hahahaha why I have been a registered voter for 12 yrs and dont vote…conscious objector…also most aren’t even aware of the Politics that affect them in their own city…but love picking a side every four years…consumerism is the downfall of the average americans intellect…in my humble opinion
Daddy, Puffy, P Diddy, you should know better people aren’t going to stick around til the end of the day. You talk negative bull shit, young people won’t vote. Hell everyone know D C is F ed up. You sean,
must double down on your efforts you can and the people around you be pround but the first quarter isn’t up yet. It. Takes a long time to change Washington, go talk to people like Devol Patrick, get him to run in eight years. There is one way VOTE. SAY YOUR SORRY, and get to work. Get the job done and you may change your name and again.
If you disagree you dont post
“If you disagree, don’t post…”
(That’s re-written with what is called actually utilizing the grammar rules of the English language).
So if you support that statement, you are a totalitarian moron that doesn’t support First Amendment Freedoms guaranteed in the US Constitution.
You don’t have to support the Constitution, but lots of people here (in the US) actually do.
You should probably move out of this joint.
It’s not your kinda party.
