First one hip-hop heavyweight retires, and now another one is hanging up the mic, too? The answer is yes, according to Sean “P.Diddy” Combs, who’s going to retire after he releases his next album, titled PD5.

“I got a chance to have my dream come true, and I wanted to make sure I made the decision as to when I dropped my last album," Diddy told MTV.com. "If I don't feel like this album is an incredible piece of work, then I'm cool with the albums I've done. I don't have to put out another album."

While Diddy will no longer perform as a rapper, he insists his announced retirement doesn’t call for a ceremonious send off.

"I don't want nobody to just go crazy or nothing," he said. "It's not going to be as dramatic or traumatic as Jay-Z retiring."

In the meantime, Combs and the Bad Boy staff will prep new releases by Carl Thomas, New Edition, Eightball & MJG, Diddy’s long-awaited dance album, and a Biggie duets album. With all the projects P.Diddy will oversee in the coming months, including his Broadway debut in New York, the man who told us he “can’t stop” might want to at least consider pacing himself. Recently, the music mogul stumbled while on stage at a ceremony for the New York Metro Area's Achievement in Radio Awards. According to a briefing in the New York Times, Diddy stumbled as he spoke and presented an award. He later admitted he took part in an eight-hour rehearsal for “A Raisin in the Sun,” prior to attending the event.

Bad Boy's 10th Anniversary: The Hits, featuring songs by The Notorious B.I.G., P.Diddy, and Ma$e is in stores now.

good....i think america is tired of sean p-diddy combs....and the industry is too. I mean all his protege's end up on drugs....(faith).....murder charges (loon, and shyne).....or just dropped off the face of the earth...(total, dream, black rob and many many more) then some just diss his ass...(sheek, styles and jada) LMAO damn dude got more bad luck with his artists then Suge Knight...IM SO GLAD TO SEE HIM GO.

About time.............

Everybody should stop hatin on Diddy, because he has been delivering hits for the past 10 years. You gotta respect him for that. Cause I know damn well if Diddy wanted sign any of you so-called rappers you would jump on it.

It's because of Puff that peeps with potential go down the fucking drain.

Prime Examples: Craig Mack, Black Rob, G-Dep, and most importantly

P Diddy Was A Pussy Anyway....

He was never officially ILL...
NEVER, but his concepts were dope, and I liked when he tried to change things with the ROCK and ROLL thing, and he SMART azz hell....ROLLIN IN CASH....

Yo DMX has never ever bit anybody's lyric but jay z has....jay z even bites from nas and look at his whole style it's played out....people calling him jehover (God) as if people worship him.

jay z is an animation so he can't diss buster rhymes and how he is animated is because he is like an evil warlord from a Alice In Wonderland movie that wants to take over the world, he cheats and doesn't deserve tha fame he gets. He took 2pacs song 'Me And My Girlfriend' when 2pac was alive he disrespected pac so how tha FUCK can he pretend to like him when hussein fatal recently dissed him and calls himself biggie...his a clown in my books so don't dare compare jay z and X cuz x got lyricz thatz ill and what has jay z got...someone elses flow.


Truth (2)

^yea

anywayz.....
fuckin' nelly and KRS ONE beef
yo,nelly so much a fuckin' pedofile
he can't even much less diss
KRS ONE if he still had to

......KRS won

*sighs*



Why must people test my Hip Hop Knowledge?


Jay-Z never dissed Pac. Not one single time. If you can find when he did that I'd really appreciate it. Jay-Z knew that Pac was only coming at him because he was on the East Coast. It's understandable. That's like, if I diss the hell out of you, you'll probably diss me AND my crew although they had nothing to do with it. And how you gonna talk about Jay-Z stealing lyrics? He doesn't steal anybody's lyrics. He even explained it in "What More Can I Say". When he says something that BIG or PAC said, he's just basically giving them a shout out.

When people say "We gonna party til 6 in the morning" nobody says they're biting Snoop, so don't do it to Jay-Z. Furthermore, how can you get upset at Jay-Z, when Eminem and 50 Cent are using his vocals and his tracks to collab on songs, and making money off of it. They even let Em produce the whole Tupac Ressurection album. And let's be real, DMX & Busta Rhymes are better than Jay-Z? I don't even know where to begin on that statement. It just sounds to me like you know nothing about hip hop. You're just basically quoting what Nas said in Ether.



Step your game up kid..

it's like...i'm arguing a kid who only started listening to hip-hop when jay z's last album came out.

Your not arguin me your arguin reality, you say you have hip-hop knowledge?!....EVERYONE knows that jay z dissed 2pac on a track i forgot tha name i think it's called "Brookylyns Finest" and it has biggie on it so you wanna tell me you have hip-hop knowledge? and EVERYONE knows that jay z bit biggies lyricz...i don't "hate" jay z i just hate what he does.
Secondly your saying Em uses jays vocals? nuke G unit freestyles on everyones tracks we all know that but those are freestyles and they aint biting nothing (this nigga's dumb). i never said Buster rhymes is better than jay z i said jay z cannot call him animated. Your a faggot how tha fuck jay z gonna give 2pac a shout out when 2pac is dead?!..but he never gave that shout out when pac was alive and there is a REASON why 2pac dissed tha eastcoast, he didn't just get all mad at noting and diss them like that 2pac dissed tha eastcoast because half of tha rappers ditched him when they left gunz in his room. You don't know shit about hip-hop you don't even know that jay z TRIED to diss pac. man...go holla at your mother you were born in 1992 stop talking.

*sigh* overated fake rappers.....a side i never saw in you, just admit it...your in love with jay z.

nas is a real nigga, so if your saying killa quoted what nas sais in ether then killa's speaking the truth, that's the reason why jay z lost and that's the reason why you've lost this arguement.


dumb fool

^well said

*sighs*


This is the last time I'll acknowledge your miserable existence on this planet...


On Brooklyn's Finest, Jey-Z was not dissing Pac you fucking waste of oxygen. The whole Biggie vs. Pac thing started because Pac was robbed and shot at in a studio in New York. Biggie happened to be in the same building at the time. Pac accused Biggie of knowing about the robbery and shooting. BIG said he didn't even know who those muhfuckas were. And things escalated and you know the rest. Jay-Z didn't have shit to do with that. He wasn't in the studio at all. Matter of fact, him and Jay-Z hadn't even met yet. So don't give me some bullshit about Jay dissing him.

Why the fuck would Jay-Z shout out Pac when he was alive? Pac was dissing Jay. Do you send a thank you card to people when they beat your ass on the street? (Well, let me not ask that question to you. You prolly do that shit). And Jay-Z and Biggie became very good friends. BIG even said Jay was his favorite rapper. Jay-Z says Biggie's lines as sort of a shout out or dedication. Are you trying to say Jay-Z doesn't have his own quotables?? He has more quotables than any rapper I can think of you stupid dickless faggot.

He said Busta Rhymes was animated because of the way he used to jump around and act crazy in his songs and videos. It wasn't even a diss. Look, penis face, you can say all you want about Jay, but at least he hasn't profited millions of dollars from PAC and BIG like our friends at Aftermath...
You don't know shit. Just keep listening to Ether and convincing yourself that your life has a purpose..

Why are you even alive?

*sigh*

Next time ask permission to speak to me

RAPWORLDKILLA is my boy toy

^Well said
