    I was watching MTV with my friend in the late 90s and and his latest video came on and my friend goes "P Diddy? He changed his name from Puff Daddy to P Diddy? What the fuck is going on?!"

    I'll never forget that. Just losing his mind over how stupid it all was.

      There were multiple rappers who did that at the time and it was like a weird fad. Puff Daddy to P Diddy. Snoop Doggy Dog to Snoop Dog to just Snoop. I think there was some Vanilla Ice Eminem wannabe that shortened his name to something completely nonsensical like "Van?"

          His name came up in a list of names Combs was reading off in a cryptic-assed Kevin Spacey-assed ig video, so... When the list of associates comes out, be prepared for heartbreak.

          It's gonna be hella people with prior-to-now squeaky-clean records that are gonna end up caught up in this Epstein-assed shit.

          Snoop used to be a pimp. He said he gave it up because he didn't like what it entailed. But like...you have to be a real piece of shit to become one in the first place lol
