Hip Hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs has said that President Barack Obama has “shortchanged” black people during his tenure.
The 46-year-old Bad Boy records founder made the statement while speaking to Al Sharpton on MSNBC’s “Politics Nation.”
Diddy says that he feels like Obama did a good job overall, but he personally feels the black community didn’t get all they hoped for during the election years.
“I feel like we put President Obama in the White House. When I look back, I just wanted more done for my people because that’s the name of the game. This is politics. You put somebody in office you get in return the things that you care about for your communities.”
“I think we got a little bit shortchanged,” said Diddy. “That’s not knocking the President. There’s a lot going on — a lot of balls for him to juggle — he’s done an excellent job, you know, but I think it’s time to turn up the heat because the black vote is going to decide who is the next president of the United States.”
The Hip Hop pioneer also revealed that he doesn’t plan on voting for Donald Trump, but was also not enthused with Hillary Clinton.
