Bad Boy Records was unstoppable in the 1990s, and thought tragedy struck them, their impact and artistry persevered throughout generations. Moreover, Biggie and Diddy's sons recently reflected on what their fathers' legacies mean to them. Furthermore, the reflections relate to the Paramount+ series titled "Family Legacy," in which children of the world's most revered artists give insight to their stories. During a conversation with Entertainment Tonight's Kevin Frazer, Quincy Brown, Justin Combs, Christian "King" Combs, and Christopher "CJ" Wallace's statements formed part of a segment highlighting the show.
"Being able to look back on those things, it feels good to be a part of history, and just be a part of something that was so special,” Justin remarked. “I’m just so grateful that I was a part of that and was there to witness these things." In addition, Quincy expressed that "[Diddy] knew what he was doing having us in the office [and letting us see] the good, the bad, the ugly, between all the businesses."
"Family Legacy" To Feature Biggie & Diddy's Sons
"I remember I used to just be getting babysit in the office, like, all day, and [would hear] Pops on the phone, yelling and just handling business,” King stated. “Like, it was serious. It made me learn growing up that he’s really building an empire and a whole legacy for us, and that it’s not a game, he’s really working. And then when I go outside and see all the fans and all the love he gets, I see how it pays off." Meanwhile, even though CJ didn't grow up with his father Biggie, shows like "Family Legacy" give him some sense of closure. "Anytime I get to see any type of home footage of my dad, it always sort of adds another piece of the puzzle of me figuring out what he was really like as a person,” he shared. “So I always appreciate those moments."
Meanwhile, the sons also spoke on how hard Biggie's death was for Diddy. "For [his murder] to come at such a quick moment, and in the midst of his success, to only put out two albums and have that amount of success, I guess it really just showed how early he was,” CJ said. “He was really thinking way ahead of the game. I felt like he was way before his time, obviously. His impact, we’ll never be able to really quantify it, because he’s not here today. So I feel like it’s just important to always continue the legacy like we’ve been doing, and push it into the areas that nobody could have imagined."
