Bow Wow speaks on Diddy’s recent arrest. He says the music mogul’s allegations “killed” the celebrity party scene.
During a recent interview on the More 2 The Story podcast, Bow Wow explains, “I just never thought I would see it like this,” the rapper shares as he’s discussing Diddy. “Like, nah. Nah. He’s like the gatekeeper to the game. To the point to where… What weekend just passed? Like, BET Award weekends. Like, the past two days just didn’t feel right. ‘Cause there was no motion, there was no parties. There was nowhere to go. Like – no, the industry parties that we attend, [not the ‘freak-offs’]. Like, me, the you [the interviewer], the terraces. Once again, I’m separating it, right? I’m talking about him as the artist, the person, right?”
Bow Wow Shares his thoughts:
He continued: “[It shows] how monumental and how important he was to the culture,” Bow Wow expressed. “Because I said, ‘Jermaine, I just, there’s no parties.’ Every year, dude had the – And you feel it. It’s like a hole, it’s like, ‘Damn.’ He was just such a gatekeeper, from the liquor in the clubs. Like, he was everything hip-hop. You know what I mean? So for that to die out, it’s like, you just would’ve never thought. Especially when you look at somebody as somebody you studied, somebody you idolized, somebody who you looked at like, ‘Yo. When it comes to hustle, when it comes to business, and how to run your s**t?’
“It’s like, he was the guy that every young hustler looked up to and wanted to either be like or wanted to… ‘Nah, I’ma pass this n***a.’ Like, I want to pass this n***a,” Bow Wow said. “Like, he just makes me…. He just stepped your hustle game up, you know what I mean? So it’s sad and it’s messed up that we got to witness this in this time. But it’s f***ed up. Oh, absolutely, 100%, [I got to sympathize for his kids, too].”
