Diddy has weighed in on the recent “King of R&B” debate. The mogul took to social media and shared his take on the conversation, where he said, “Heard we talking about some king sh*t and y’all know I usually mind my business, but R&B is the foundation of my life. And to be a king, that’s some other sh*t. The word king is too loosely thrown around. Now, I understand the concept that we are all kings, I understand that….but cats giveaway the king thing too early.”
He continued, “Let’s get to the topic of R&B: we talking about rhythm and blues, we talking about sharing your soul, and making love through your music. We’re talking about adoring a woman. Not just putting it down or talking about how you just want to smash her, I’m talking about adoring her. So in order to be the king of R&B you first gotta start making some R&B, you have to be vulnerable, you have to be speaking about love, you have to be able to affect women in a positive way and your a** has to be able to sing.”
Diddy concluded, “Man, and then you have to write a number one record. You’ve gotta have a whole bunch, a whole bunch of number one records.”
