The Daily Mail has a piece from Diddy:

My message to kids is simple. Put the guns down. No good can possibly come from the violence. You pick up a gun, and you are looking at prison or death. It may not happen the same day, it may not happen the next day, but it will happen. It is a dark road - and there is no turning back! ...

I had every kind of job growing up. I delivered newspapers, pumped gas, worked in a Mexican restaurant.

Some were terrible jobs. It wasn't about me taking a job to be cool. It was about being able to provide for my family and provide a future for myself. That is how committed I was, that is the level I maintain even today.
