Diddy talks about BIG film

By | Published on Friday 16 January 2009

Sean diddy daddy Combs has told fans via YouTube how watching the new biopic of the late Notorious BIG made him confront his feelings about the death of his friend, shot dead in Los Angeles back in 1997.

Combs says: “Anybody that’s experienced a great loss of a friend, a family member… The thing that I realised, because I did it, and you may have realised it, you figure out ways to repress the feelings and not deal with it. You just don’t deal with it. Until one day, out of nowhere, a song or a picture or something makes you deal with it. Watching the movie, there was no running, there was no hiding from it. … I changed”.

Biopic ‘Notorious’ goes on general release in the US and UK in February. Set to precede it is the soundtrack, ‘Notorious: Music From And Inspired By The Original Motion Picture’, which is out on 26 Jan in the UK. I think it might already be out in the US.

The LP features Kanye West-produced single, ‘Brooklyn Go Hard’, by Jay-Z featuring Santogold, as well as Notorious BIG tracks like ‘Juicy’ and ‘Hypnotize’. Previously unreleased demos and new tracks also appear.
