Diddy Was Born On November 4, 1969

Diddy was born as Sean John Combs on November 4th of 1969 in Missouri.

Diddy is a successful record producer and rapper and an even more successful business man (his net worth is estimated at over $300 million.) Diddy is his current performing name but he was previously known as P. Diddy and before that Puff Daddy. He has had his biggest hits thus far under the name Puff Daddy.

Combs was already known as a music promoter and producer when he came out with his first album of his own 1997's No Way Out. It went straight to #1 in the US with sales of over 500,000 copies in the first week.

The recently deceased Notorious B.I.G. appeared on four tracks.

No Way Out featured the #1 US singles "Can't Nobody Hold Me Down" which featured Ma$e & and "I'll Be Missing You" which was about The Notirious B.I.G. as Combs had worked with The Notorious B.I.G. on his albums. The album also included the #2 US singles "It's All About The Benjamins" & "Been Around The World." The album won the Best Rap Album Grammy in 1998.

While his albums since then have done well commercially (all selling at least one million copies in the US and reaching at least #2 on the US album charts) they have not reached the same level of success as his debut.
