Diddy Says He Was Inspired to Work Hard After Waking up With 15 Cockroaches on His Face
The rapper eats mango in his viral motivational speech.
Diddy has some words of advice to those who may be lacking the motivation to hustle this summer. In a video posted to Instagram, the rapper eats a mango poolside and delivers an empowered speech to his followers.
“I ain’t special,” Diddy says. “I just want it. I want it bad, you feel me?” He goes on to say that he “won’t allow [himself] to not have mango” by virtue of slacking off.

But what really got followers’ attention was an anecdote from the rapper’s less affluent times. “One day when I was growing up, I woke up and there was 15 roaches on my face,” Diddy wrote in the video’s caption. “At that moment I said hell no, I refuse to live like this. Work hard, believe in your crazy dreams…”
Needless to say, the video, which has garnered 1 million views since being posted this morning, has spawned some hilarious memes on Twitter.
