The Lox vs. Diddy... Again. Wednesday (November 16), The Lox appeared on "The Angie Martinez Show" on NYC's Hot 97 to address their beef with Diddy. As it has been reported earlier this month, Jadakiss and Styles P have decided to stop putting out records until they can settle their current business situation with the Bad Boy Records honcho. In the surprisingly honest interview, Jada and P revealed a lot of behind-the-scenes information to their fans about their contract with Diddy - claiming that they've paid upwards of $3 million to get off of Bad Boy, that Diddy owns 50% of their publishing, and that every time Jada puts out an album Diddy gets a $300,000 advance. The boys from D-Block got very worked up during the interview, saying that they are currently on their seventh lawyer in an effort to get their publishing back from Diddy and that he is " the devil-in-disguise." In response, Diddy called into the show, urging the group to act more mature and see him in his office, instead of airing him out on the air. The group then explained how they have been trying but Diddy has been giving them "the run around" with his lawyers. Jada ended the interview explaining to his fans that his beef with 50 Cent is more of a "lyrical WWF"-type feud that he could keep going forever if that's what they want, but that his beef with Diddy is real and has been going on for about ten years. He then claimed that months ago, the last time he sat down with his former boss, Puff compared the situation to The Beatles and Michael Jackson. "'The Beatles can't talk to Michael Jackson - cause Jackson got the publishing.'"

Last night, Diddy appeared live on "The Angie Martinez Show" to respond again to the Lox's claims. Among other counter arguments he said, "I would have signed that deal", Diddy said, referring to the Lox's initial contract with Bad Boy, "But also to keep it real, I would have been so on my business that I would have been at that office trying to make the deal better. Don't feel sorry for people that are lazy and then blame it on the other person. They are not on top of their business, but they need to get on top of it. Forget the beef, the talking reckless Sit down, and handle it. Before you even meet with me, sit down with your accountant for three hours and go over your life. Manage your life, sit at home by yourself and read your contract word for word. There are books that I have for them [like] Publishing 101." To listen to both interviews in full go to hot97.com.
