Who is he? No disrespect tho R.I.P.

What songs did he make?

 

[Tafadzwa Twabam]

@Numero Uno there is not much to say about him because is a one-hit-wonder.

Black Rob's music career never really took off, to be honest.

@Scorpio, @Borrowdale Barron How is too late?

Y'all believe Puffy should take care of grown men for the rest of their lives, ha?

Why don’t these Hip Hop rappers learn to invest their money into things that they can get a return from later on in the future, instead of them spending money on daiges and drugs?

It’s not Diddy’s responsibility to take care of grown-ass men, periodt.

@Queen thank you! Someone had to say it!

 

[Borrowdale Barron]

@Queen it’s not but if one falls so deeply sick, P. Diddy coulda just stretch his arms a bit from all the millions he made off his former BBE artist Black Rob.

Blaming Puff Daddy for your financial mismanagement is crazy like Whoa!

P. Diddy was his employer. That’s it. Not his daddy, not his life coach either. Is it your previous employer’s responsibility to help you because they can?

@Shamiso Sometimes I kinda think this is why the music industry needs a union like Whoa!

Puffy has ripped a lot of his BBE artist off, check the history.

People need to grow up. Some of these artists probably signed deals without thinking things through. You can't blame other folks because you made bad decisions.

By the way, bosses don't have to be your friend or personal mentor. I don't care how much money or influence that boss has. Start thinking logically...

A fool and his money will always part.

@Scorpio Most rappers are not good at managing money.

@Shamiso it's nobody's fault. It's just life

I do NOT understand why everyone thinks it is Diddy's responsibility to feed and house someone who used to work with or for him 20 years ago.

When you leave a job, does your old boss have to take care of you and pay your medical bills, food costs, entertainment costs, house maintenance, etc?

So just like @Shamiso said Puffy doesn’t have to take care of every single Bad Boy Entertainment artist for the rest of their lives and that word is bond.

@Chidinma

Of course, your old job doesn’t get paid off your work when you leave!

But P. Diddy held Black Rob's masters and myuuzik royalties for years whilst he got paid off this man's work and left him with nothing.

I'm not saying all record deals are morally right but it’s called the myuuzik "business" for a reason.

If you sign a deal under no duress or coercion then you are in a legally binding contract you must fulfill probably for the rest of your career because some record contracts are something else.

However, you still have no one to blame but yourself for any misery that follows.

 

[Black Panther]

Damn.

@Borrowdale Barron @Scorpio

Puff wasn't his zaddy or sponsor. They were business associates and nothing else.

In a capitalist-driven industry like the myuuzik business, you can't make money from being sympathetic with these rappers, singers, songwriters, producers, and sound engineers.

It's either the artists on your record company still got talent and still popping or they not. From there you make a decision whether to continue doing business with them or part ways.

Therefore this ain’t got nothing to do with P.Diddy given that Black Rob had one hit, "Whoa!"

He spent his advance. The second album flopped but folks are quick to blame Puff Diddy for everything.
