Puff Daddy Combs: God Is My Best Friend
Though it might seem oxymoronic, the founder of Bad Boy Entertainment says God is his best friend.
In an interview with Ebony, Sean Combs, aka Puff Daddy, aka P. Diddy, aka Puffy, revealed his heart for God.
“So, what does a label associated with weed smoking, Moet drinking, booty shaking and Big Willydom know about making a gospel album?”
Without missing a sampled beat, Puff answered, “First of all, God is my best friend; the reason I wanted to do a gospel album was to give thanks. Over the years, Bad Boy has made a lot of things cool, from the way we dress, dance, the sunglasses that we wear, and the designers we endorse. Well, now God is something we’re going to endorse. A lot of kids think it’s cool to spark a blunt in front of people, but they won’t nod their heads to pray in front of those same people. Now, we want to make God cool.”
Combs was raised in Catholic Church and schools. The entertainer even sang in the choir and served as an altar boy.
The New York Times reports Combs even has Psalm 23 tattooed across his forearm and “God’s Child” on his neck.
