Diddy Takes Blame For Rapper Clichés

Puff tells the L.A. Times that he’s to blame for the false perception of hip-hop stars. In fact, he says he intends to tone it down. Say it ain’t so, Joe.

“People have this perception of me—which is my fault—of maybe a rapper or champagne-sipping and Hamptons and white fur and just cliché type of things that are just kind of old and dated and corny, which isn’t how I am today, you know?” he told the Los Angeles Times. “That was just part of my image for a second. It wasn’t who Sean is. You evolve—like, I need to retire my diamond necklace and fur jacket now. Things change. Times change.”

    Yet you manage Rick Ross, who has modeled himself after every hip hop stereotype he could think of? Okay, maybe sean combs is gunna back off it, but won’t stop him from selling it.

    Poppycock.

    RIP Bling Era; you were corny and a terrible follow-up to the Golden Era.

    @B. Dot

    Lmao!

    Anyway, I agree with Diddy. It’s a lot of bullshit floatin’ around in ppl’s minds about rappers and what they’re about. A lot of that shit is corny…Thanx 4 Puff owning up 2 it…

    Wasn’t this nigga just on Flex’s car show talking about how he likes to drop the top in the winter just to stunt on niggas? “We don’t believe you, you need more people.”

  10. lovelybubbly says:

    It sounds like redemption a good look Diddy!

  11. abcd456 says:

    Thats good to hear he’s over that bs, being flashy is for insecure people and is corny. You know your a boss when you no longer have to brag about it or try to be flashy to prove a point.

  12. NEWKIDONDABLOG says:

    Atleast somebody takes da blame.

  13. nah, now he is just a talentless producer who has a flare for putting on very good at being bad reality shows, and cheating his artists out of their money.

  14. Oj Da Cornball says:

    “I sold the most records”
    “Ross is the new BIG”
    “NIcki Manaj is one of the greats”
    “I am THE rapper’s image”

    there’s more but what an illusional dude.

    SMH

  15. The Real says:

    P.diddy finally realized how foolish he looked tryna live and look like a drug dealer in the hamptons, I guess he’s growing up, bout damn time. Now take the blame for letting these talentless fucks like Baby know that they can go platinum without knowing how to rap.

  16. lup says:

    this is the same dude who just sported a fucking grill on xxl and is now managing rick ross.

    Every time he talks i squirm in my seat because he knows better.
    Who has an education and talks like this?
    “It Wasnt who Sean is”
    Even a fifth grader knows not to use past and present tense in the same sentence.
    Sound like one of them backwoods bama boys.
