Is the second verse of "Purple" by Nas about Diddy?
- Thread starter Mr Hate Coffee
- Start date
Yeah..always thought it was Lake
But the fact it could fit so many people is foul in itself.
Diddy called Nas drunk and angry and told him “Wherever you are in the world I need you to pull over and wait because i’m coming to see you”
Nas told that story himself

There were def some casualties though...
I think Suge being locked up is poetic justice.
Puff is just getting his.
Wonder if that was all talk or they had a face to face about it.

I personally NEVER liked Puffy. EVER! But even if I take out my own biases, who the hell does he think he is? Among the the biggest Hip Hop earners, he is one of the least talented. Again, taking out my biases, he is not above reproach. I applaud Nas for sharing how he felt about Puffy at the time of the writing Purple. I’m sure there were a few things that Puffy was doing that Nas didn’t like. Jerking his artists, wild sex parties that turned into videoing celebrities in freak offs without consent over the years, and the pattern of deaths that he could be alluding to in the second verse. How you gonna be that foul in hip hop and have the nerve to complain when someone write a rhyme about you? Lmao. Poetic justice. He is getting his due and rent is due for a lot of others who have done and got away with that foul shyt.
Well, Nas and Puff were friends. Its probably a lot Nas didn't agree with, but stayed silent about, but this was something that he was compelled to publicly speak on. Sometimes, criticism from a friend hits different especially when its coming from a friend that you know if they are speaking publicly on it, then it's real. The initial shock is going to be the same reaction that Puff had. When said friend tells you to your face "Homie, you were wrong and I couldn't sit idly by while you went on thinking this was cool".
I don't remember anyone who was friends with Puff publicly calling him out like that. Kim is the only other person. She called him out for signing Shyne.
