Damn Po was so far ahead of his time when he first got signed and, like most who dance with the devil, caught the heat whilst Puff walked it off. I'd been hyped for this dude since the Bad Boy street team sent me his first released verse
and a whole grip of mixtape featureses/freestyles and I was hooked as I genuinely believed this cat had next. Sure he sounded like BIG but was altogether grittier in tone and content and not that similar once you got down to it. Once he dropped his debut single it was a wrap:
As it was so fresh, raw and angry, not to mention the beat and feature were knocking. Fun fact the promo version of this had a different hook where Po stated "What type of nigga leave you dead in the street? Bad Boy. What type of nigga stay in the Trump for weeks? Bad Boy. What type of nigga fly Bentley coupes? Aim for your head cock the shit then shoot? Bad Boy" the bold parts ended up getting overdubbed as Puff though they ran a bit too close to what really went down that night in the club (listen close and you can hear it) with him, Po, J Lo.
