It still fucks with my Mind that the most Gangsta and Bout it member of Badboy is Diddy he grew up in that life and is technically the last man standing and still rolling along no fucks given...
Weird Fucking World...
I'm not saying he isn't the most gangster... But simply surviving doesn't automatically make you the most gangster. It Makes you guy with the most money, Able to stay above the fray.
You don't say the president is the best at battle during a war with iraq or some shit. He ain't out there fighting, he just calling the shots while all the soldiers do the work. That doesn't make him a hero. Makes him a shot caller.
Diddy did survive, yes, but he had biggie out here rolling with lil cease and droc, while he himself was with top military personnel. That ain't gangsta.
He met with those crips, allegedly,, and told em to kill pac. Then he shitted on them with the payment, allegedly, and they were no longer protecting when biggie got shot... That ain't gangsta.
Survival solely doesnt make you a man of principle and honor. Again, maybe my understanding of situation is wrong. Maybe diddy is gangsta. But i need to hear more of the story... Cause based on what we know. Hee just a nigga who had all the money, and did the type moves that anyone with lots of loot would do. But he wasn't out there like vito corleone, or tony soprano, or marlo from the wire. Every situation we know about was him using his money to get out of shit or start shit, i.e. The Shyne situation.
I never heard of him doing some master p type shit, which would qualify as gangsta. I never heard of him doing j Prince type shit. That's gangsta.
Edited to add: let me be clear. I'm not hating or saying he a bitch or anything. I'm just saying gangsta as you're using it is a term of honor and respect. Not as dumb ignorant gangster like o dogg shooting grocery store clerk. And nothing diddy has done makes me think he that.
