A List of Artists Diddy Has Worked With Over The Years
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Amid the myriad of sexual assault lawsuits and Hip-Hop fans, and the community at-large’s increasing dissent of Sean “Diddy” Combs, one might wonder if his eventual cancellation is closer than we think.
If that’s the case, then it begs the question of whether or not cancelling Diddy means cancelling all the music and artists he helped put in the forefront and helped produced. After all, we were quick to #MuteRKelly...well some of us at least.
But given Diddy’s extensive reach, are the masses ready to hit “stop” and delete some of their beloved music from the soundtrack of their lives? And what will happen to the livelihood of some of our favorite artists — many of whom recently received their masters back from Diddy — if we don’t press play?
While you and I both ponder that question, let’s take a look at a handful of artists Diddy/Bad Boy Records had a hand in making global superstars...
