The internet has really killed a lot of documentaries, especially documentaries like this that use recent information.
Honestly all of these documentaries on Puff were pretty much equal.....None really had a different perspective at all.
Ultimately if you followed Puff''s life like we do on this forum, most of this isn't new information.
I honestly thought Puff's life was worthy of a 7-10 part documentary like OJ Made in America or The Last Dance but all of these documentaries just feel like they just were surface level.
From his father Melvin Combs getting killed selling dope with Nicky Barnes & Frank Lucas to the City College tragedy, to discovering Biggie, Mary J, Mase, The Lox, Bad Boy vs Death Row, coastal beefs, South Side Compton Crips, dealings with real gangsters like Jimmy Henchmen, Wolf, Riz, BMF, Club shootouts with Jennifer Lopez & Shyne, Vote or Die, running the NYC Marathon, Sean John, Ciroc, freakoffs, human trafficking, Fed investigations. Dude's life is legit insane. There's just so much.........He survived fukkery time and time again, until now. It's like his 9 lives.
One of the things I'm realizing is that it's probably insanely difficult to tell Puff's story because no one wants to talk which is why you see the same people in all the documentaries. We aren't getting J-Lo or the Lox to talk about Puff......Or Big Meech to talk about Wolf.
The Death Row vs Bad Boy part of this documentary is just so glossed over that it's downright garbage. They're insinuating that Puff was apart of 2pac's murder but don't even paint the picture of why he would want to take it there. There's no talk of the altercation at the Soul Train Awards, no talk of Suge managing Jodeci and Mary J Blige....They could have gone so much deeper.
