Diddy and Shyne Reunite In Paris

It was a Bad Boy Reunion for Shyne and ‘Puffy’ over the weekend as the two met face to face for the first time since Shyne was thrown in jail  following a 1999 club shooting.  The two met up in in an unlikely place –Paris Fashion Week– with Shyne tagging along with Diddy to the Kenzo and Givenchy runway shows.   In January, Shyne confirmed that he and Diddy hadn’t spoken while he was in jail (although Diddy reached out to him twice) because he wasn’t ready to talk just yet, however the two had a chance to finally chat by phone and bury the hatchet.

“As far as Puff is concerned, that’s been a long time coming. Our relationship wasn’t just business; it wasn’t me just being a rapper on Bad Boy. We had a solid relationship, we had a brotherhood, me, him and Wolf, and I just felt the need to just reach out, because again, he just kept it tall no matter what I said. For me, the conversation was a confirmation of what I felt. When a man says, ‘Listen, as a man, I make mistakes and I own that.’ What could you do? I just feel real good about moving on with our relationship. Me and son, we gonna get together in Paris — We gonna sit at the roundtable just as men.

It looks as though Shyne got to meet Cassie and Kanye too. Check the pics

Cassie tweeted, ‘Me and Shyne headed to dinner #Paris’

French Montana talks Beef with Jim Jones, The Bad Boy Curse & More

Complex caught up with French Montana for a Who Is French Montana? article. In the piece, French touches on several topics. Below is a excerpt of the interview which include subject matters as his long standing beef with Jim Jones, his former deal with Akon & whether he will fall under the Bad Boy “curse”.

Last year, you had a pretty public beef with Jim Jones. Is that dead now or is there still a little animosity there?

Nah. I’m getting money and he’s getting money. [The situation involving the hit on my head] had nothing to do with Jim Jones.

You were signed to Akon’s Konvict Music label for a while. What ever happened with that?

Akon tried to help me out. He gave me a shopping deal. A shopping deal is when an artist takes a liking in you, and they try to take you to a label to get you signed. I was gonna go get signed to his label, but they were going through problems with Interscope, Akon’s label over there. [As a result], my deal was over with him, so I went and did my own thing.

It’s been rumored time and time again that Bad Boy artists don’t always have the best of luck. Did you have any reservations about signing to the label?

Of course [I had my reservations about signing to Bad Boy based off their reputation]. Anybody would. That would just be the obvious. My new thing is, I don’t judge my relationship on everything that came before me or after. I’m gonna judge you on how you and me do business. I feel like, a person will only do something to you that you’ll allow him to. I don’t understand how somebody can jerk you [on a deal], and you looking at the contract the same way they looking at it. I think everything is going to be straight. I think I have a good team and good management, shout-out to Mizay [Entertainment]. I got Ross with me, Diddy with me, and the whole Coke Boys, Chinx Drugz, Flip—we got a powerful team. I don’t think one person can stop that.
