The Artist Formerly Known as P. Diddy

He's no longer P. Diddy. After going from Puffy to Puff Daddy to P Diddy to Sweet Baby Jesus (okay, that wasn't him) to Diddy, he has now made name changes a more foolish endeavor than our man P. Congratulations DIDDY on making the whole symbol thing look like the act of a normal and rational man.

From Yahoo News
I felt like the 'P' was getting between me and my fans and now we're closer," Diddy said.

"During concerts, half the crowd is saying 'P. Diddy'--half the crowd is chanting 'Diddy'--now everybody can just chant 'Diddy.' "


He confessed that his unwieldy name was even starting to befuddle him.

"I even started to get confused myself--and when I'd called someone on the telephone it took me a long time to explain who I was. Too long," Diddy told the New York Post.

"One word. Five letters. Period," he added.

I'm sorry, but nothing will ever top the prince.

Aw come on...it's not like he changed it to four different symbols.

Okay, damn it, I give up. As dumbass as the multi Diddy name change is, there has never been a bigger miscalculation by an artist than the symbol thing. I tried, Prince.

I don't think it was the pee getting between him and his fans, it was the poo. Or maybe I'm thinking of R. Kelly, soon to be known as, icky guy.

I know the whole symbol thing didn't do much for his career, but I thought it was pretty cool.

Okay Puffy was okay back when he released "No Way Out"
I even liked "Number One" or whatever that song was. I liked it a lot.
I even liked "Bad Boy 4 Life" and I'll give him the remix album..
But no he didn't invent the remix and he surely is a better "business" man then he is musician.

His best work was with a rapper who is no longer with us. Maybe P. Diddy should pull a Jay-Z and become a suit full time.

Whatever he calls himself, he'll always be known to me as Lame.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

He needed to drop the P. Now I can just call him "Shitty" rather than "P Shitty". It sounds much better now.

He couldn't even say that with a straight face when I saw him on TV. He's full of shit but a good PR man.

Does anyone really give a rats ass what his name is now? I highly doubt it.

I don't know why the hell he doesn't just use his real name. Ain't nothing wrong with Sean Combs, but I guess it's not hip/hop cool enough rolleyes
