When you cant write your raps(he cant really rap the raps written for him either) you cant expect to get a lot of respect, puff NEEDS a lot of other people's help to do ANYTHING

His hands are unfortunately not completely clean (tupac,quad shooting, hatian jack, jimmy henchman) and rumors are he was getting extorted and also doing dirt himself based on his fam connections

Visibly he was seen as a BIG hanger on even though he was puttin heavy work in, all you see is some goofie nikka hanging around BIG in the videos

He had like 12 other producers and writers working for him on that album, ofcourse it was dope(Props must be given here imo because Puff invented a new way of making music, the whole drake reference track shyt was something puff kind of pioneered)

A lot of booty bandit allegations

All in all the dude does get the props he deserves i feel. I mean come on.
He is still like one of the if not THE richest hiphop Moguls out there. Money>>>>>Propos

I don't think people underrate it.It's heralded as a classic album and looked at in the light that it should be.


Actually time has been more kind to the album than most.

Mase spoke on it in an interview on one of his returns to rap, he credits Puff for the vision but he wrote all those hits. remember Been Sround thE World, Can't NoBody, Mo Money Mo Problems... mase was in studio B working on it, big was in studio A, big heard it and jumped on it and mase gave a verse to puff and boom... sorta like what jay and ye did to big Sean with the Clique record

:ohhh:

Link to this interview? :feedme:
