P Diddy: Jamal 'Gravy' Is Killing It

P.Diddy

Oh, I've gone and misled you a little with that headline. Sorry. P Diddy has been enthusing about actor Jamal 'Gravy' Woolard, who is playing deceased rapper Notorious BIG in a new film, currently in production.

Diddy told MTV: "Gravy's killing it. If I tell you he's killing it, then that's all we need to say, you know what I'm saying? I don't think anybody could have done a better job".

Diddy also spoke very highly of Derek Luke, who is playing him. Although, he didn't say anything about killing this time: "It's rare that you get a movie made about you when you're still relevant, but [they] took on the challenge. People asked me years ago who you'd want to play me, and I said Derek Luke. So, it was just destined. I got to see him do his thing, and it was scary for me. I had to leave, 'cause he was acting just like me".

The film, entitled 'Notorious', is set for release next January.
