During a recent charity event in London, Diddy brought out a very special guest for a few songs. He surprised fans with Shyne, a former Bad Boy signee, who's since become a politician. Shyne is now the Leader of the Opposition in the Belize House of Representatives. He performed two tracks from his 2000 self-titled debut, “Bad Boyz” and “Bonnie & Shyne.”
“Ayo Shyne, I love you from the bottom of my heart,” Diddy declared onstage. “This is real love. My brother Shyne is fighting for his people of Belize right now. He’s gonna be the future, I predicted it, Prime Minister of Belize.” Shyne also turned 45-years-old today (November 8), celebrating with a backstage birthday cake.
Diddy Says Shyne Is "The Future"
The rapper turned politician's unique path will be detailed in an upcoming DJ Khaled and Roc Nation-produced documentary, The Honorable: Shyne. “Immigrating from Belize to Brooklyn as a child left to survive and thrive in the concrete jungle of New York, Hip Hop had a massive influence on my life, giving me the space and community to explore my creativity and amplify the voice of my pain and purpose," Shyne told Billboard in October. "The difficult decisions of my life have shaped me into the person I am today, steadfast in my desire to build a better life for the people of Belize and humanity.”
“By bringing my story to audiences, I hope to inspire them to find the indomitable spirit within so they can overcome all adversities and be the best version of themselves positively impacting their part of humanity with their unique footprint as I have done through music, faith and public service,” he added.
