One of the biggest highlights was a performance from DMX!

The Queen of Hip-hop & R&B, Mary J. Blige also had the crowd going crazy as she lit up the stage with her signature dance moves & classic ballads!
A nearly four-hour long show of 20 years of hits were performed proven Diddy is one of the most successful ‘self-made’ label heads that was able turn his artists into well-known hitmakers. The night ended with a touching tribute of “I’ll Be Missing You,” with the entire Bad Boy Family & Friends on the stage.
