My Disappointment in Puff
October 4, 2024
I was supposed to write this article a while ago, but I’m glad I waited because now I have more information to work with. I’m actually Diddy’d out (pause) but I have to give my two cents before I quit paying attention.
I.PUFF’S INFLUENCE
If you know me then you know Puff was a super influence in my upbringing and creative life. It was easy to admire the guy, He had the swagger, the bravado, the success in multiple arenas, black guy from unfavorable circumstances like, genius in music, and overall a shining beacon for someone like me to follow.
The Puff influence ran deep, my first drank of alcohol was Ciroc, I only took it because Puff made it look cool and I wanted to support cuz. I believe I was around 20 years old too, so you see how long I waited not to drink alcohol and only did it because one of my role models did it. Growing up, people would always compare to Ye or Puff, due to the way I dressed, mannerisms, and most people were aware of my life aspirations.
II.DARKSIDE OF PUFF
Like everyone has mentioned this dark side of Mr. Combs isn’t new, we literally heard rumors since we heard who dude was. My idea of Puff before the levy broke on him was ,he was a shrewd businessman but he was a cool fun guy just don’t sign to him! lol. I thought that’s the only thing you would have to worry about the guy, don’t be his artist directly and otherwise you can pretty much rock with him (wrong lol).
https://soundcloud.com/gettothecorner/sets/boss-vibes-puffy-style
The funniest thing about all this is I remember conversations I would have with one of my guys around 2015/16. We were working on my underground cult classic, Boss Vibes Puffy Style, (people used to tell me how much they loved that tape, still get spins today but its not on DSPs, head to soundcloud lol).
Anyways, while we was working on that tape dude would always make a joke about Diddy, calling him “Bisexual Puff”. I’m used to crack up but I used to defend him like man “Boy is not bisexual please quit putting that on him”. He used to be like boy you are an idiot lmao. Then he also said “Boy you gon be so disappointed when you meet these n****” I never thought about that sentence afterwards but lately that sentence been reverberating in my mind.
III.A CONFUSING FALL FROM GRACE
I never met Puff and probably won’t at this point, but I was always confident that I would but now I guess I’m glad I won’t? Its so confusing man, boy was such an indirect integral apart of my life. All the Sean John I used to wear, I even had Sean John shoes! You know I was in too deep , who the hell had Sean John shoes??!?!
Damn BIG, imma still listen but this Puff stuff wild man
I even made “Can’t Nobody Hold Me Down” the theme song of my life. You know how wild that is? My entire life lmao. Out of all the songs I could’ve chose, I thought that best described me best now its like the song is tainted. (sorry Mase). I even though “Victory” was literally the greatest rap song ever made, (I still think that) and I thought “Life After Death” is the greatest album of all time.
When I make albums, I don’t even finish an album without listening to Life After Death in full, its basically a ritual for me.
What I can’t understand is why would he destroy his legacy for his penis? Like bro them sex demons was on your head beloved! You ain’t have no control! lol. I was holding out a glimmer of hope when the Cassie suit first broke, like man we don’t know we gotta wait.
But the moment that video dropped the hammer dropped. Even then I still held a shiny glimmer of hope, like you know people get into arguments and wild out with their girl all the time. But all hope was lost when he kicked her. Once I saw that it was like I seen him sign his own death certificate.
Like man you did not have to kick her man, then you dragged her back to the room like bro are you nuts?! Why would you do that? Everyone who askst hat question gets told the same thing, his drug fueled ego was is downfall. People are starting to say this is a learned behavior, he grew into this, man I don’t care about none of that. Puff had ful agency and knew right from wrong just as good as he knew to say take that take that every two seconds.
IV.BOY RUNNING FROM HIS PAST OR SOMETHING
I resignated with what Charlamagne said on Brilliant Idiots on one of them episodes. It hurts to keep seeing cultural icons destroy their own legacy with their own hands. And I’m not buying the liquor lawsuit conspiracy even though I know how petty institutions can be when you cross them but regardless that liquor company ain’t force him to have freak offs and go around acting like he was in the Gotham. Boy took the Harlem vibes too far, he really thought he was Money Mitch or Bumpy Johnson or something, boy thought he was still in Get him to The Greek or something man I don’t know what was going through his head lol.
However I know it gotta be a crazy stinger to spend damn near 30 years in wealth to overnight sleeping in a cell next to rats while being afraid of being poisoned. Its not worth acting like you’re bigger than the program or untouchable just for you to eventually get touched. Don’t ever forget this, everybody can get touched!!
V. BAD BOY FOR LIFE
I think the next step for Puff is getting his soul right with Christ. Jesus is literally the only person that can save him at this point. Them Federal Boys on him tighter than a leather dress!
When people get this deep especially like him I wonder did he ever think of his family in all this? Through all the jerking of artists, the violence, the sexual deviancy, the outright evil acts, he ain’t never think “man I should chill out for the sake of my kids”. Especially after having a newborn in your 50s! Like Damn its time to grow up and chill out man.
But when you do the things like Puff do, one can only ask, What is he running from? its clearly something, what’s in his past that occurred that brought him to this point? I think the people who are or were his supporters deserve to know to gain some understanding on this? I know most people don’t care about him and is glad to see him rot but think if this was your family member.
No matter what you would your family to get a shimmer of mercy even for the most heinous acts. Does he deserve mercy at this point? Probably not but I’m praying its at least some mercy on his soul because its looking like he’s cooked in this life. However, God is a greater judge than anyone in the Southern District of New York, they can take your life away but God can take your LIFE away, don’t let that go over your heads!
Damn Puff, you messed up big time beloved, can’t call you my mans no more, it was fun while it lasted. Damn…

More throughout the week though the talk of the finale start getting at an all time high of anticipation, which was definitely expected.

I’m like got damn beloved I gotta watch this show before the streets ruin it for me damn!
So I had to watch the finale at 6am, with none of the vibes I wanted. I needed to go to the store it was too early for that, I’m in the bed tired, I went to sleep listening to that new Von Alexander album , go check that out. Anyways, I’m all droggy and I’m like I gotta watch this now. I watched it then afterwards I immediately start seeing thesis and whole analytical breakdown on the show and I’m like Damn its just drop beloved relax!!!
I was so glad I woke up and watched it but man when its big time events for this can people please give a grace period for people to watch it. Everybody ain’t tryna watch Power at Batman hours man, people be wanting to sleep.
Please keep that in mind when Tommy and Raising Kanan come back. Alright yall be good man. smh
