Puff Daddy stopped by Hot 97’s Ebro In The Morning, and the native New Yorker spoke about adding his own child to his Bad Boy roster.

“I never been in the studio with my son and I never gave him a beat… He’s been wanting to be a rap artist since he was three,” said Puff Daddy. “It was like a bidding war for him. I told him where I was going. I said you have a decision. You could go and meet with these people, and he decided to go with me over at Epic.”

Puffy added, “[Christian is] the only person I know that’s flyer than me. He’s my hero. I have to watch him sometimes to get my swag back. He’s such a gentlemen, works hard, and his records are undeniable. He represents New York.”

Christian is likely to be in attendance for the highly anticipated Bad Boy Family reunion concert taking place at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on May 20 and 21. Puff Daddy revealed Faith Evans, Lil Kim, Ma$e, The Lox, Total, 112, French Montana, Jay Z, Mary J. Blige, DMX, and more will be hitting the stage that weekend.
