He shared, “When he was in New York City, he was like that gecko from the Geico commercial, then he lived in Cali and Miami, he turned into Godzilla.”

Deal then started to name other notable music moguls who have influenced Diddy’s actions in the worst possible way.

He continued, “He turned into something that you could consider a monster, bruh. ... He learned from Andre Harrell. He learned from Russell Simmons. He learned from Clive Davis... They were heavy into beating women and doing things at that crazy stage. That’s gonna make him think that he can get away with the same thing.”

Deal told a story about how the mogul threatened former Bad Boy President Kirk Burrows, saying during a 2022 interview, “I think it was, like, Kirk had to sign over Bad Boy. He had like 25% of Bad Boy, but for them to get the deal, everything had to be [in one].”

He continued, “Like, somebody couldn’t own 25% for Puff to do the deal. So, Kirk had to sign over his shares for them to do the deal which I didn’t never understand. It wasn’t my business to understand. But Kirk ended up signing over it back to Diddy with the promise that he was gonna get it back once they did whole thing with Clive Davis and everything. Kirk had to be threatened in order to do it.”
