Diddy’s Son Criticized For Scholarship

Thursday, May 31 2012 9:15 AM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, True Story

Last fall, Diddy’s oldest son Justin, accepted a full scholarship to play football at UCLA. Now six months later, local tax payers are calling for Justin to forfeit his endowment due to his father’s net worth.


This is just stupid. With a 3.75 GPA, Justin earned his ride fair and square. It’s not his fault his pops can cop Maybachs like white-tees. Here’s to sticking it to the man.

    I highly doubt this kid 100% earned that GPA… athletes are always given special treatment, even in high school.

  2. Nymfo1 says:

    even though it would be nice if he gave back the money because he can already afford a college education, he shouldn’t have to give back something he earned and worked hard for. Why penalize someone for working hard and obtaining a scholarship just because his dad is super rich, The’re not the same person and his accomplishments are his own and shouldn’t be linked with his dad and his money.

  3. JD says:

    IDGAF this nigga is gonna be rich anyways with or without college

  4. that’s crazy…he made the grades

  5. Capricorn Religion says:

    That’s, that bullshit….

    Keep it moving people. I wish a motherfucker would try an take My son’s hard EARNED scholarship..

  6. robstarrk says:

    you think he’s the only rich kid to ever earn a scholarship… rich kids get full rides to play golf at ivy league schools… diddy is an ass imo but this is unfair

  7. Carlito says:

    now that’s crazy. i can see how some less fortunate and less financially stable students/parents could get salty just based on the fact of who his dad is, but tax payers money doesn’t even go towards athletic scholarships. they’re funded by profit from ticket sales, media contracts/endorsements, corporate partnerships etc. he earned that full ride. point blank.

  8. Kemosabi says:

    I definitely see the other side here. He shouldn’t have too but wouldn’t it be the right thing to do considering only so many students get the free ride and they can clearly afford it? Either way it’s a great thing for Justin

  9. gator says:

    u get scholarships with 3.75 gpa in the states? like what the hell that is so low. u wouldnt get to a common high school with that in eastern europe :D

  10. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    Hold on ! Diddy aka Career Killer. Was at King of Diamonds making it RAIN with DJ Khaled the video is on RR. Yet the tax paying people to have pay his tab smh.

  11. The Other P says:

    UCLA is a pac 12 bottom feeder. The smart thing to do would be to give the ‘ship to another player to help his future squard.

  12. Black Shady says:

    Rich Ass Kids shouldnt be able to get scholarships period…how bout that

  13. Uptown says:

    Quincy has earned the recognition, however, this seems to be more of a character development issue.

    Was the scholarship earned? YES
    Was accepting the scholarship the right choice? NO
    Could the award money have been donated to another student who is equally deserving but less endowed financially? YES

    Moral choice, ethical choice, CHARACTER!

  14. Why So Serious says:

    His dad is a rapper/black entrepreneur, im so surprised!!

  15. Faded says:

    I went to Iona Prep with Justin, and he earned the scholarship to UCLA his grades were uptight, but he sucks at football and will get rocked at UCLA

  16. Kunta Kente says:

    Damn B. Dot get this niggas dick… Maybe he should give back, is he even that good? Remember the famous kid of a rapper to accept a athletic scholarship. Yea Lil’ Romeo when he went USC, he played a total of 3 minutes for 2 seasons and then quit. What a fucking waist!

  17. oh Boy says:

    LOL @gator

    tru story !

  18. Citylivin' says:

    “Diddy’s self made…Sean Combs is self made”…..Diddy is foolish if he doesn’t use this as a soundbite on a song.

  19. 50 Cent says:

    Didn’t Officer William and Wale bitch ass play football at Community College

  20. Jungle says:

    This is bullshit let the boy have his scholarship

  21. Your mother's "friend" says:

    I can see a lot of highschool dropouts commenting on this post, as much as this may seem like a free ride it’s not at all, quite the contrary. The kid is gonna have to put in 40 hour(probably more) weeks plus he earned it regardless of who his father is , i think most of you are just jealous that a kid who seemingly has it all is smarter & works harder than you

  22. MELODY says:

    Its funny how hiphop is so quick to defend a hard working Justin Combs for earning a scholarship even though his father can afford it, but this happens everyday with democrats on republicans and hip hop is so quick to jump fences. SMFH.

  23. Trillionaire says:

    SMFH…FUCK THOSE “local tax payers”…PEOPLE KILL ME WITH THIS SHIT. America is in trillions of dollars worth of debt and these assholes talking about tax money…shut the fuck up. Have can any grown person try and stop a kid that rightfully earned a scholarship from receiving it? I about to bump Trick Daddy “Amerikkka” for a day…cuz its obvious money or no money “you still a nigga”..ha!

  24. Jo Jo Simmons says:

    I hate rich kids

  25. Memphis Bleek says:

    That BITCH Blue Ivy will get a free ride to Harvard.

  26. .... says:

    why do they have to make a big deal about it…they could of privately asked him to forfeit it
    the tutiton is less then the car diddy bought for him on his sixteen birthday

  27. B.Dot that lil nigga rich as fuck…He don’t need a scholarship,Fuck all that….Diddy can pay for EVERYBODY tution in that university LITERALLY!!

  28. Bill Gates says:

    Give it back!

  29. The Truth says:

    Jay-Z got Rap Radar employees fucking SHOOK

  30. I don’t think he should give it back. He earned it and he needs to see that daddy isn’t gonna pay for everything. BUT diddy should give a less fortunate kid a scholarship to the same school. He should pay for a poor kid with a high GPA to go.

  31. Rich youngman says:

    Let him have it we do it all the time (white people). I have a 3.75 and going to Duke on a full ride and my dad is rich so what, we earned it the hard way. Studying and playing football so stop hateing on us rich kids.

  32. Anon DCPL says:

    Fuck you rich bitch ass kids all together. This lil nigga will probably play one full half his whole career there.

    I laugh at that fuckin 3.75 gpa. I wanna know how many of those were honors & AP.

    Sean Combs better donate 2 mill or open up a college fund for low income kids in the LA area.

  33. JD says:

    Hid dads an intentional public figure so that’s who we have available in the discourse. They shouldn’t make him give it back, but it would be classy. He’s not sticking it to anyone but someone else who could get it. Of course he earned it, and everyone knows he earned it, so donate what your father has as chump change and let someone in need rock with it.

  34. Phil says:

    Not really sure why you want him to “stick it to the man” — as if the country’s racist, or something.

    Virtually the entire country is broke due to overspending, so why would you intentionally milk out more when you can clearly afford it. Plus, let’s be honest: his Dad can afford it. Isn’t the right thing to do to return it and let someone who can’t, get into college?

    I’m not saying he has to, I’m just pointing out it may be the right thing to do.

  35. TD Cruze says:

    It should’ve been given to a poor kid who deserved it just as much. We already know Diddy’s son has a free life, why give him a free ride? It’s just a waste of a scholarship.

  36. Acapella says:

    Thats total bullshit. I’m pretty sure they didn’t do that to Romeo and Master P when he got accepted to USC or Vanessa and Rev Run when she went to St. John. Now the government is jus on that weak shit, str8 up.

  37. G says:

    I remember that this happened with Denzel’s son. He was offered a scholarship but turned it down because Denzel said he was blessed to be able to pay out of pocket for his tuition. This is exactly what Diddy should do but won’t. On a related note, anyone here know if he was recruited by actual elite football schools? I would guess not because if he was really good USC would have offered him a scholarship in a second.

  38. Rocsi From 106 & Park says:

    3.75 GPA lmfao… I mean thats good I guess for a black kid

  39. Cal says:

    That’s cool and all that he earned it, but scholarships are typically for people who DON’T have the money to attend a university. So no, you selfish fuck, you shouldn’t have accepted the scholarship, you should have thanked them for considering you but insisted it go to someone who needs it. You still get to go to school and play football. Greedy mother fuckers.

  40. Dewan says:

    I thought that was Al B Sure’s youngin’? Though I’m thinking he might be one of Rick Fox’s seeds. Anyway, he earned the ‘ship. There’s plenty of rich white kids that do the same. Look at the golf, tennis, hockey, or cross-country teams.

  41. deez says:

    FUCK OUTTA HERE..diddy give that mufuckin scholarship to some athlete who actually NEEDS IT. U FUKING CLOWN MUFUCKA PROLLY PAID THE COACHES AND THE PLAYERS TO MAKE SURE UR SON SCORED TOUCHDOWNS AND MADE ENOUGH HIGHLIGHTS JUST TO GET INTO UCLA..IN A FEW YEARS JUST THINK DIDDY GNNA PAY OFF REFS AND SOON ENOUGH JUSTIN WILL BE IN THE NFL DRAFT WHEN HE PROLLY A SHIT PLAYER..WHOS GONNA TACKLE P.DIDDYS SON THEY PROLLY LIKE YO CAN U GET ME SOME AUTOGRAPHS AS HE RUNS PAST EM….HA!

  42. joethaplumber says:

    A free scholarship to my school is just that, “FREE”!!!!!!! It doesn’t cost $500 to make those books but they charge you that anyways. Those prices are over inflated as hell.

  43. Jaymalls says:

    This nigga earned it… He didn’t just bullshit through high school! Niggas need to stop hating n get on their job. Look how many niggas get financial aid… You don’t think rich students don’t get mad at that??? Their tax money is paying the majority of that… And the people recieving that money don’t even have to take 1 test to be on it!

  44. truth says:

    all of yall mother cunt. suck your mother with a straw

  45. Steve says:

    I see the problem here, but give it to another deserving kid. He earned it, but that doesn’t mean he should get it. He has plenty of other things that millions of other kids will never have.

  46. ben_dover says:

    Rich white kids get scholarships all the time…..
