In today's time of social media and access, we often get a view into our creatives personal lives.  This view can sometimes distort the sounds that impact our very own experiences and relationship with the music.  Recent developments of Sean Combs' personal life threatens to do just that.  So before we cancel Diddy, lets slide through (No baby oil required) some of his most impactful R&B hits and artist that he came into contact with (No pun intended).  Bad Boy R&B music is still some of the greatest music of any era and it's sound shouldn't be locked away despite the result of any court trial! Whether the remix or the sounds of Mary, 112, Day 26 and all in between, the Diddy era still makes you dance!  Be sure to like, comment and share @Theoretikallyranb!    #Badboy #Diddy #Diddler #RandB #Podcast #TRNB #TRNBmusic #90srandb
