Sean “Diddy” Combs Calls Bad Boy Tell-All “Work Of Fiction”

February 10th 2009

 

Sean “Diddy” Combs’ camp says there isn’t an ounce of truth in a book written by a former colleague. According to the “New York Post,” a rep for the Bad Boy Records head dubs Mark Curry’s tell-all, “Dancing With the Devil: How Puff Burned the Bad Boys of Hip-Hop,” quote, “a work of fiction, filled with lies, written by a disgruntled former artist.” Curry has posted portions of the book’s first chapter on his website, www.markcurrybook.com. In it, he claims Diddy promised to release Curry’s debut album and make him rich after signing a deal in 1997. But Curry adds, quote, “Today, after years of writing hit records for Combs, I am no closer to having my first album released by Bad Boy Entertainment than I was when we signed the contract.” Diddy’s rep retorted that Curry was credited for “two songs he wrote,” and added that Curry, quote, “never produced any other material worthy of release by Bad Boy.”

Mark Curry was featured as a rapper on several of Diddy’s songs, including 2001’s “Bad Boy For Life.” He also appeared on the Notorious B.I.G.’s 1999 posthumous song “Dangerous MC’s.”
