If you really wanted to see the Genius of Puff Daddy and the way he Molded his acts to perfection, Just look at Mary, Jodeci, Total, Father MC, Heavy D and the Boyz, Biggie, Faith and others during this time. Everything was scripted and nothing was overlooked. He really was at the very top of the game and Everyone took notice.
