Diddy Unhappy About ‘Burn’ Book

Hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs is reportedly unhappy about a new tell-all book coming out about him.

Page Six reports that former Diddy associate Mark Curry is currently shopping around Dancing With the Devil: How Puff Burned the Bad Boys of Hip-Hop to various publishing houses.

In the book, Curry alleges that big spender Diddy, 39, “hoodwinked and bamboozled me for nearly a decade” in promising to release Curry’s music.

“I had to leave the label and its illusions of wealth in order to save my career, my marriage, my mind and my soul,” he writes.

“This is a work of fiction, filled with lies, written by a disgruntled former artist ,” Diddy’s rep responds to Curry’s claims. “He was properly credited for the two songs he wrote and never produced any other material worthy of release by Bad Boy.”

Diddy’s 2009 isn’t shaping up to be a stellar year as of yet.

First he couldn’t get free inauguration tickets, and now this.
