“I know. I played myself.”

Entertainment Mogul Diddy has tapped into the most vulnerable of his emotions while keeping his spirits up despite the tragic end to 2018.

Things have not been the same for Diddy ever since untimely passing of his longtime girlfriend, beloved fashion model and mother Kim Porter. The music mogul has been going through a mix of emotions. Last month, fans criticized the grieving father during his mourning for failing to ever marry her. Diddy humbly agreed with them, replying with, “I know. I played myself.”

The past few weeks have been rough. It just hit the four month mark since the passing of Porter, and the highly publicized split from former girlfriend Cassie. It would be an understatement to say he is still dealing with a wide range of emotions. Recently, Diddy took to his Instagram to reveal that he’d been crying for “three and a half hours” straight.

“Man, I ain’t gonna lie. I’ve been holding a lot of s*** in lately. I just had like a three-and-a-half hour cry, where I just let it all out. Or as much as I could tap into. And that shit felt great. Sometimes you gotta let that shit out.”

Diddy decided to use this as a teaching moment. He encouraged all of his followers regardless of age, to embrace their pain and purge their hurt through tears.

“Just saying to everybody out there, man woman and child- don’t be leaving nothing bottled up. Let that thing out. God will be right there to let you know, ‘C’mon, let’s get up. Let’s go.’ Had me a three-and-a-half-hour cry. God is good. Let it go, ya’ll.”

The family told the Associated Press the singer died of idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension, which led to heart failure.

In a statement to the AP, the family said after Cole received a kidney transplant in 2009, she was diagnosed with pulmonary arterial hypertension, a rare lung disease that causes shortness of breath, dizziness and sometimes chest pain. Because Cole’s case was idiopathic, the exact cause is unknown.

The statement read: “(Cole) responded well to pulmonary arterial hypertension-specific agents over many years, during which she performed many concerts world-wide, but eventually succumbed to intractable right heart failure, an outcome that unfortunately commonly occurs in this progressive disorder.”

Cole died last week at the age of 65. The daughter of Nat King Cole, she became a star in her own right, winning nine Grammys and releasing platinum albums including 1977’s Unpredictable and 1991’s Unforgettable… with Love. Yet the singer battled early problems with drug abuse, and later hepatitis C. Cole had a kidney transplant in 2009.

“Natalie fought a fierce, courageous battle, dying how she lived … with dignity, strength and honor. Our beloved Mother and sister will be greatly missed and remain UNFORGETTABLE in our hearts forever,” read the statement released last week from her son, Robert Yancy, and sisters, Timolin and Casey Cole.
