Rap mogul DIDDY has added magazine editor to his impressive resume after agreeing to take charge of the fifth anniversary issue of US urban publication King.
The cocky entrepreneur, who also runs his own clothing and fragrance empire, feels he's the perfect choice to guest edit the landmark issue - because he is a "king." In his editor's introduction at the front of the January 2007 issue, Diddy writes, "King's can't sleep. Helicopters taking aerial views of your house...
Do you get woken up in the morning by helicopters taking aerial views of your house.
"Since swagger is something that King and I specialize in, I need to define the word... For me it's my belief in God. When I come into a room I look the way I look and I walk the way I walk because God is right beside me. If God were right beside you, you would walk like me too." Diddy admits he's a huge fan of the five-year-old magazine, which features interviews with hip-hop's biggest stars and saucy pictorials with sexy African-American and Latina models and actresses.
He adds, "A lot of people only see the beautiful, bodacious derrieres or the curves on the body that only a black queen can have when they look at it."
