Diddy has just added another artist to his Bad Boy roster after signing his son Christian to a recording contract.
Puff broke the news yesterday (April 1) via hisinstagram.com
page. In the video, Christian is seen sitting next to Epic Records exec
L.A Reid signing a paper while his proud father looks on. The caption
reads, “NEW DEAL ALERT!!! Everyone wish my son @KingCombs a happy
birthday & CONGRATS on signing that record deal!! #BADBOY #EPIC.”
The signing coincided with Christian’s birthday. The Bad Boy heir turned
18 yesterday.
This might seem to be coming out of nowhere but Christian appeared on
The Breakfast Club a while back alongside Diddy and expressed his
desire to be a rapper (below). Then again, this could be an April Fool’s
joke. But musical aspirations definitely run in the family. Christian
is Comb’s second son to try his hand in the entertainment industry. His
brother Quincy has also dabbled in the rap game spitting under the
moniker International Quincy before transitioning more into acting.
While Puff is helping plan out his son’s future is he also planning what should be an epic Bad Boy reunion show
on May 20 at the Barclay’s Center in NYC. Dubbed “One Night Only,” the
concert will bring the old gang back together, including feature
performances by Faith Evans, Ma$e, LOX, Total, 112, Mario Winans, French
Montana and Lil Kim with special guests Jay Z and Mary J. Blige.
“This isn’t just another concert—this is hip-hop history,” Puffy says
in a press release for the event. “The Bad Boy Family includes some of
the biggest names in music and songs that helped define a whole
generation of music. Also, we are celebrating one of the greatest of all
time—Notorious B.I.G. This will be a night to remember. I can’t wait to
see you all there.”
