Like, come back to your people over here, or stay over here and get big with these guys\u2026 We left.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tony Starks continued: \u201cWhen we left and did the Hot 97\u2026 Shit was a disaster. They cut our records off that day, they didn\u2019t play no Wu shit no more. That\u2019s when Puffy was really getting on his shit, know what I mean? It just wasn\u2019t the same no more.

We dropped \u2018Triumph,\u2019 no radio play with that shit. So it came out that he told the truth, like, \u2018Yo, I had to do it.\u2019 He had the power. I don\u2019t know what he paid \u2019em, but he had the power. Listen, we was a threat. We was coming, if \u2018Triumph\u2019 was promoted like it was supposed to be and we would have stayed on that radio right there, I think things to right now would have been a little bit different.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Diddy and Hot 97 are yet to respond to the claims.<\/p>\n<p>Diddy currently has bigger issues to worry about as he remains behind bars until his sentencing in October.<\/p>\n<p>The Bad Boy mogul was attempting to secure a $50 million bail package but this was denied by the judge who cited the record executive\u2019s history of violence.<\/p>\n<p>In his highly publicized trial last month, the music mogul was acquitted of the most serious charges of sex trafficking and racketeering while being convicted of the lesser offence of engaging in transportation for prostitution.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/hiphopdx.com\/news\/ghostface-killah-claims-diddy-blocked-wu-tang-clan-from-radio\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ghostface Killah has claimed that Diddy was responsible for getting the Wu-Tang Clan banned from radio in the late 1990s.
