I mean, there was one time where I have no idea what happened, but somebody messed up something. He was so pissed and he says to him, if you do this again, I could hire somebody to get rid of you and he wouldn't even know where to find you. I was like, what a weird thing to say, somebody. And at the same time, it was like, this is what money does to you.

Well, why not? I mean, hip hop, The street culture is not just a good festive party culture, but there's also a dark side as well, streets. And there are a lot of grimy people out there who will do whatever for money. And that was always the case, even before he got the money. So that was always the case.

They don't want me to throw the parties no more. We ain't going to stop. We're going to keep on having fun, bringing people together from all walks of life. You're going to hear about my party. They're going to be shutting them down. They're going to probably be arresting me, doing all types of crazy things just because we want to have a good time.

I heard somebody say Biggie's car had got shot at. And then when I went there to the car, opened up the door and he was hunched over.

I would say young energy, lots of young energy, lots of young people, lots of great ideas, lots of excitement because a new label, new music, you know, the gangster rap was all over the place for a while. People wanted to party, have fun, hook up, do things with each other and, you know, after work, you know, build good memories. And so that's what Bad Boy represented, being authentic,

and just being yourself without a filter, and just have fun. We were all really young. I mean, I was 24 years old. But we had interns from college, high school. They would come in after work. They'd work in the mailroom. You know, they'd work in different departments.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Yes. Yes. There's a lot. Yeah. I mean, we had a lot of attractive interns in the office and you had a lot of, I was working there and you know, like I said, I mean, I didn't see anything personally, but you know, the water cooler stuff, you hear the stories, those things happen. And I don't think that's just bad boy. I think that happens across the industry in general.

BBC exclusive: ‘Women flown in for sex’
I think it was very common. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I mean, even when we're doing videos, you would invite, you know, young women to the videos, to be in the videos, to have the youthful party, you know, vibe that you're looking for. I mean, Bad Boy was about having a party. It was about being young. having fun, you know, that's what it was about.

Back then, you don't see them as warning signs. You see it as, this is what people do, you know, in this business, right? But... I remember my first week working at Bad Boy as a paid employee. I was at the studio. And Puffy was there. And there was a girl there. They had met or whatever. I didn't think anything of it. My work was done. I was getting ready to go home for the night.

If you're in the studio and you're recording, this is going to sound horrible, but, you know, you pay for a flight for a woman to come into the studio is the same as, like... ordering food to the studio.

I was in my jacket. And I just opened the door. And he's in there, you know. having sex with this, with this girl. I don't know how old she was. I have no idea how old she was, but, you know, like I said, he was 24 at the time, you know, but was that a sign? At the time, I didn't think so.

At the time, I was like, I thought I was getting fired because I just walked into my boss, you know, having sex with this girl. She was young, so, you know. So to see them in the room, you know, it's kind of like, oh, yeah. Yeah.

BBC exclusive: ‘Women flown in for sex’
Yeah, that was the only one that I have seen. But yeah, they happened a lot in the studio. A lot of things happened in the studios after a certain time.

BBC exclusive: ‘Women flown in for sex’
You know what? At the time, no. It didn't. But then again, you know, knowing what I know now, you know, there's a lot of speculation about what state she was in. You know? I mean, if you think about it, I mean... Usually both parties are very responsive during the act, so it's possible. It's possible.

Well, if two people are having sex, you know, you hear a lot of noise. I didn't hear any noise. I thought the room was empty. So when I walk in, I'm surprised to see.

I still think it's a big leap to go from what happened that day to what's happening right now in the headlines. And again, I haven't spoken to him in 22 years, so I don't know you know, how he's evolved, per se. But I don't know, I guess I wouldn't be surprised. I mean, with all that money and everything that he's had over the years, you know, money does things to you.

It wasn't uncommon to fly women in from around the country. Well, not around the country, but they could be like a two- or three-hour flight away to have sex with people in the studio.

A couple. Usually they had a specialty in a certain sexual... If they had a specialty in something, yeah, they would be flown in.

Yeah, and it's coming out of the budget. If you're in the studio and you're recording, this is going to sound horrible, but you pay for a flight for a woman to come into the studio It's the same as ordering food to the studio.

Oh, the amount of you? I mean, probably like thousands of dollars.

Puffy, even to this day, is the hardest working man that I've ever met. And it was very tiring for me to see him work so hard. And he always wanted people to match his energy, which is frustrating because he could come off a little prickly about it. But it's his company, so of course he's gonna work hard to build it into something.
Diddy On Trial
BBC exclusive: ‘Women flown in for sex’
Yeah, he did change. And, you know, it's not surprising. I mean, the label started off very small. They recorded Ready to Die, I think in his grandmother's basement or something like that. And then that became a multi-platinum hit. We had a lot of multi-platinum hits. during that time and Puffy just renewed his deal with Arista. He got a big payout.

As the weeks went on, you know, we saw a different side. He liked to threaten people.
