05/12: Diddy Talks Meeting The Notorious B.I.G., His Death and the Power of His Music
FADER has an illuminating interview with Diddy focused on The Notorious B.I.G. Their first meeting, Biggie's character and the void that was left after he passed away. Must read.
What had you heard about Biggie before you met him? He was in The Source’s Unsigned Hype. They said he was ill, but I don’t think they really understood how ill he was. But also at the same time, it wasn’t like everybody out there had labels. It wasn’t no competition. It wasn’t like another label wanted to sign him, because he didn’t have that look. And also, his style. He wasn’t trying to spit no radio R&B-friendly records.
