The Heartbreaking Story of Craig Mack
Музыка
Craig Mack is the first rapper from Bad Boy Records to have gotten the label company a hit song, which is called «Flava In Ya Ear». Despite this banger, it’s safe to say that his career was cursed from the very beginning. Gene Deal recounted in an interview that Mack held a grudge against the label till the day he died. The rumors state that he wanted to kill Puffy, even though they initially had a normal relationship. They were even acquaintances well before Diddy founded Bad Boy Records.

I did an internship at a studio on Long Island when I was in college back in 1998 and met Craig Mack. He actually spoke to me as a person rather than speaking down to me as some dumb intern like most celebrities do.

He lived across the street from my Aunt on 148th Southside. I spoke to him quite a bit. He lived in the house with the fire hydrant in front and would get so many tickets. The blue truck, anybody from Foch know what i am talking about.

Craig Mack is still better than all of them because he was still capable of getting number 1 single in 1995 even when they tried to stop his second album. His style of rappin' is unprecedented. The crème de la crème. Rip Craig from a big fan.

Ty for sharing Craig’s story. It’s a very positive ending bc for all the pain he went thru bc of PDiddy he came to know the Lord. Uplifting story and lesson here.
Craig Mack afro hasn't aged at all.
It seems regardless of the story he found his peace in life before death. Rest well Craig!
Diddy is evil
God bless him. He came to Christ before he passed. I’m sure he’s making it Heaven to be with his real Father. Rip Craig Mack
Craig Mack was the best thing to ever happen bad boy records. Diddy really fkd up. Rest In Peace King Mack 👑
In a few years they're going to make a movie about Diddy but in this one he's going to be known as the Diddler😂

He probably hated Diddy because he tried to diddy him. And he said no. He knew what diddy was doing to young men and women. That probably upset him too
They killed his ass. So sad
So are we to assume Diddy used Mack and Bigg against one another and these dudes fell into it unaware the Puppet Master was behind scenes mixing foolishness that would only help him steal from the artist??
