Bad Boy Records co-founder Kirk Burrowes shared his thoughts about Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs. On December 2, Netflix released the documentary Sean Combs: The Reckoning. In the first episode, Burrowes said that he was with Combs from the beginning. He said:“I co-founded Bad Boy with Sean. I was dazzled by his ideas and his unique talent. But he was a very different Sean Combs back then.”He looked at the time when a stampede happened at City College of New York in 1991. It was a basketball game event, and nine people died due to the mishap, People Magazine reports. Burrowes said:“Throughout the newspaper headlines, throughout the confusion, the finger-pointing, who was responsible, Sean, young, in real time, carried the weight of all of that. He was holed up in a hotel on the east side, him and his mother. He didn’t know what was going to happen.”Kirk Burrowes recalls Combs' interaction with his mother following the stampede incidentKirk Burrowes remembered Diddy’s mother, Janice Combs, asking her son if he made the right decision to venture into the music industry after dropping out. However, he said:“And I saw him put his hands on her. Called her a b*tch and slapped her. He’s not looking back.”Speaking of Diddy’s musical work, Burrowes said he was not a typical producer who would instruct musical notes. He had the instinct to understand which music would be a hit. Mentioning a particular incident, he said:“I’ll give you an example. At the Rooftop in Harlem, the DJ Brucie B would mix a cappellas from R&B songs with hard hip-hop beats. And it drove the kids crazy at the clubs. That’s what Sean did with Jodeci on those remixes.” View this post on Instagram Instagram PostKirk Burrowes talks about Diddy dropping out of college, parties, and working with Bad Boy RecordsBurrowes said that Diddy dropped out of Howard University when he was 19. His dream was to be in the glitz and glamour of the music industry. The Bad Boy Records co-founder said:“He started off dancing, wanting to be in videos, wanting to be a pop culture mover and shaker at a time where things were changing. Hip-hop was evolving.”He also recalled that during the initial years, Diddy was determined to do anything. He was even ready to work the entire week. Combs would promote his parties, which Kirk Burrowes said were the most successful at that time. However, he noted:“But they were all about promoting himself.”Burrowes said that he was asked by Diddy to be the godfather of his son, Justin. He somehow managed to push that to the back of his head. Mentioning that it was a bad moment, he said:“Does that make me part of a Sean Combs cult? Maybe so. I may have been the first disciple, believer and then overall protector against all odds.”Another incident that he remembered was when Andre Harrell sold an album by rapper Biggie. They met with record labels like Epic, Sony, and Columbia. They even met Clive Davis of Arista. Davis was impressed. In the initial days with Bad Boy Records, Burrowes had 25% stock, while Janice’s share was 75%. He mostly looked after the financial affairs of the company.Also Read: Did Netflix use "stolen footage" for its documentary "Sean Combs: The Reckoning"? Diddy spokesperson critiques the show
