I’m not huge into rap and hip hop so i never gave him much attention, and there never really seemed to be anything particularly interesting about him like other artists in those genres. What really made things click for me was finding out a few months ago where his nickname came from:
Combs said he was given the nickname “Puff” as a child, because he would “huff and puff” when he was angry
And i had also read an article at that time talking about how all of his life he had been a fairly violent guy, it’s a wonder it never meaningfully caught up to him until the last year or so.
