He ain't just get dissed on record though. Before Pac and Big even got involved the beef between Bad Boy and Death Row had moved from music industry disagreements to street shyt and blood shed. It was never just rap beef.
You might put contracts on people you're scared of. People who actually run up on you, have you jumping off balconies, people who hem your family up and try to beat information out of them for your whearabouts.
Puff is affiliated with plenty more than shady record deals.
- Father is Melvin Combs who ran with Frank Lucas, Nicky Barnes
- Played football and been friends with Gambino Capo Andrew Campos since the 1980's
- His friend and main bodyguard, Anthony "Wolf" Jones, who allegedly killed Big Jake Robels and later killed in a shootout with BMF
- Jimmy Henchman
- Eric "Zip" Martin
I could go on. That don't make him tough or anythng, but this notion that he's just some unassuming record exec with no ties to street shyt is patently false. As is the root of all of this being "dissed on a record".
People died behind this beef before any records were made.
