Dirty South hustler Master P and Bad Boy wheeler-dealer Sean 'P. Diddy' Combs come from different worlds, but both played major, largely negative roles in determining the course of hip-hop in the '90s. Diddy's crimes against hip-hop are well known; the consummate East Coast insider's influence took the genre's money fetish to surreal heights while setting the art of sampling back decades. The Saga Continues. Is the third studio album released by American hip-hop artist P. Diddy & The Bad Boy Family on July 10, 2001 in North America. The album was eventually certified Platinum. It is the only studio album released by Combs under the P. Diddy name, and last studio album under Bad Boy Entertainment's joint venture with Arista.
