| | Bad Boy Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Bad Boy Records is an East Coast hip hop record label founded by producer/rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs in 1993 and today is a subsidiary of Warner Music Group. |  | | Arista Records bought a 50% stake in Bad Boy in 1996 but, following Clive Davis's departure from its parent company, the label broke ties with Arista and BMG, moving to Universal Music Groups' Universal Records in 2002. |  | | The song topped the charts for ten weeks and became the hasty second single from Combs' album, No Way Out, which was released in the summer and sold 7 million copies. |

| | Notorious B.I.G. :: Born Again :: Bad Boy Records |
 | | The problem is that even though this isn't a bad album, it's not REALLY a Notorious B.I.G. album. |  | | Suffice it to say this isn't a bad album - the beats are mostly on point, the Biggie vocals where available ARE fresh, and the guest appearances are often eeriley seamless with the original vocals, such as the Sadat X collabo' on "Come On" or the duet with Lil' Cease on "Can I Get Witcha". |  | | Regardless, the fact that the only two songs on the album that feature the Notorious One solo are "Niggas" and the previously released "Who Shot Ya" (an excellent inclusion) is disturbing considering each Biggie album to date was over 80% Biggie. |

| | P. Diddy :: We Invented the Remix :: Bad Boy Records/Arista |
 | | Even I have to recognize though that before these songs came around, hip-hop "remixes" were a regular sales pitch in the 80's for fickle fans not willing to shell out for a single whose song was on the album they already bought. |  | | Unfortunately if he intended to prove that his crew's remixes are always hits or improvements on the originals, this album fails miserably. |  | | An accurate description of Sean 'P. Diddy' Combs resume in an album title would be "We Made the Remix More Popular." As a label owner and occasional producer in the 90's he oversaw a series of remixes that were pop and hip-hop hits, but remixes were around long before people ever heard of Puffy. |
