Well he was instrumental in the deaths of BOTH Biggie & Pac, which changed the landscape of hip-hop & rap music, but this thread about who Diddy has extorted, killed, manipulated or artists he's literally driven to religion because of his own deception of them. Diddy will be speaking and Howard students should be grateful

The issue isn't him dropping out. It is what he represents as a man. Unmarried, 6 kids (5 biological), 3 baby mommas, infamous for shady business practices (don't know how true that is), and his wealth was amassed through destructive elements. I, personally, have no gripe with Diddy but I can see how a decent student can be up-in-arms about him speaking.

and bill gates and the facebook guy are any better than diddy. :camby:any successful business man at the level of diddy and those other two guys damn sure ain't get there by being nice. no need to talk about that man's personal life as if that's a means to judge him. funny how you judge him hard because he's black.

:dead: at people getting upset at what other people don't want to hear. Like seriously outraged, on some "how dare they, they should be thankful Diddy wants to talk to them!". No, actually they shouldn't, if they ain't trying to hear him talk.

Some of you cats are weirdos.

Fred.

You're the weirdo.

Why should anyone have a problem with Diddy giving a commencement speech?

Some of these graduates don't want to accept that you don't need a degree to make it because the spent all those years studying. As a business graduate myself that's stupid thinking if you look at history especially in the tech field.

Lol at the thought of Harvard students being mad at dropouts Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg talking at their graduation.

shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. Let Bill Gates or Zuck speak at my graduation and I'll have a fukking business plan in PDF form on my iPad with all my contact info and flat out hand them the iPad (or a Surface for Bill) and tell them to keep that shyt and read the material on it . You know how hard it is to get a meeting with either of these dudes in the real world if you aint talking money or (in Bill's case) saving the world?

Lemme be a Howard student and I'm submitting tracks, a video portfolio and a 3-5 year plan for the future of Bad Boy Records. That nikka will have no choice but to fukk with me.

Kids who all love him and are very well taken care of, Baby momas who he maintains great relationships with and on. Destructive businesses like what? Not releasing lox out of their contract is worse than destroying competitiveness in some of the biggest businesses ever? The article clearly stated that one of the issues was the he dropped out.

Have you seen Howard homecoming? It's not the rose ball. We got Wu-tang members giving lecturers at Harvard while Howard is infinite levels below and they are are focused on a mans family business? Unless they are priests I don't know how the fukk that affects them.


Career wise Puff is one the most successful diverse investors, producers and entertainers of his generation, not only in music but in general. His kids are rolling around in maybachs (even the kids who are his baby momas).
You're singing to the choir.

hes accomplished... that makes him worthy.

if diddy offered anybody a gig out of college making 100k, do you think theyll say "no thanks, you have kids out of wedlock" :usure:

Any man who supports these Howard U grads' displeasure is a c00n ass nikka who has no respect for the success hip hop and it's leading figures have given black people and anyone who also agrees wit em should be banned from this site

I said my peace

IDC. I have no issue with him speaking just have an understanding of where the grads are coming from.
