Awww, that made me cry a little. Quincy seems to be a very intelligent and well-spoken young men. Much success to him.
Sometimes you can have your father in your life and have him still not do crap for you.

i feel quincy on that but you have to realize is tha al b sure is still your father without him it wooden be no you.so there to say yes diddly raised you to become the men you are today but hes not your biological father i am pretty sure al b sure have some explain to do.al b sure is the only one if something happens to you can save your lift diddy cant do that.i you should be mad or upset about hin beening absent from your life maybe he was trying to get his life togetther.i should know my mom didnt raise me but if something that i needed like some blood or somethinng she the only person i can go to besides my siblings. saying dont let this o thing with your father get you down hes still your dad and everyone one is not prefect. diddy raised you but hes not your biological father so much goes in a person where they just dont how to deal with things.bling bling is good to have but at the end of the day al b sure is still your father.and yes you two can be twins ok.maybe you should just talk to him.maybe your mom desided to raise you by her self like i am doing with my daughter

I cannot share in not having both parents around so I am appreciative of that, but my children are going through this right now and I commend Diddy for being a great father because that is exactly what he is to this young man maybe not biologically but he has done one hell of a job raising this young man I can see just from reading this letter on the internet wow If only all children had a father figure as he not because he has a fortune but because he laid down foundation for this young man I can truly see Diddy isn’t one of my favorite people but I have respect for him like no other job well done Diddy and for what ever Al B Sure was going through I don’t know the story so I can’t comment but a child need both parents its not about you when a child is born but you already know these things no one has to tell you this!

Thats a v ery nice letter he wrote. I wrote a letter to my father but he never responded. Q should always remember that even if his father decided he doesn’t want a relationship with him in the future he has to always remember he is very fortune. He has a family who loves him which is more that most. I haven’t talked to my father since I was 7. I reached but he never reached out. fuck it. I have a mother who loves me. a grandfather who guided me and respectable male role models.

I have to say I agree with “msneed2know.” I grew up without my Father in my life. I was 13 when I got the chance to hear his voice on the phone. I never really knew him but when I did talk to him I feel in love with my Father because I didn’t have a Dad. My grandfather was the closet person I had to a real Dad & I loved him dearly. I never hated my Father for not being there because back then we didn’t really know what was going on we had so many loving family members that showered us with love. I Love & miss my father very much even if he wasn’t around. But some people have a problem with dealing with their father’s not being in their lives. I have my issues sometimes but I pray for a loving heart everyday. So if this is Quincy way of expressing how he feels about his father then I say Quincy express yourself to the fullest. No one know your pain but you. I applaud you. It is a beautiful letter straight to the point and also honoring your father that has given you unconditional love all these many years. Be blessed.

I think a lot of folks are misunderstanding what Quincy was trying to get at. My interpretation is that why did someone else have to do your job? We all have our flaws but one thing I can say is that Diddy has shown equal amounts of love to ALL his children…..Justin, Christian, D’Lila, Jessie, Chance AND Quincy.
Not taking anything away from Al B., but if you weren’t prominent in Quincy’s life, were you at least in L’il B or Devin’s life? You can’t claim “your work” kept you busy either! Diddy had his hand in lots of S.H.I.T. and still found time to be there for HIS “son” Quincy. This letter is proof why Mother’s Day is more recognized than Father’s Day.
Sometimes strangers will treat you better than your own family!

i HAVE to respond to this article cause it hitz VERY close to home for me. i too grew up witout my father. life wuz hard in a single parent home wit 3 other siblings and sometimez, when thingz got extremely hard, i would even be upset that my father wazn’t there to guide me tha way that i needed him to. hearing so much negative “press” about “dead-beat” dadz, i usually didn’t even think about tha circumstances behind his “absence”. i jus assumed that if he wanted to be around, he would be around. i wuz told by my mother, society, and tha media that my father wuzn’t in my life because he didn’t WANTto be and i accepted this as a universal fact. i’m now 28 yearz old with 4 kidz of my own and i’ve learned dat I WUZ LIED TO. i can’t speak about my father’z situation cause i don’t know exactly why he wazn’t around, BUT i CAN speak for myself: see, i haven’t seen two of my kidz in over a year now and i KNOW it iz of no fault of my own. i’m paying child support (although, even if i wazn’t, tha Attory General will tell u that child support and visitation are unrelated and u can’t deny one right because another right isn’t being respected. at least not LEGALLY, anyway.) and i have a visitation court order but my childrenz mother has been denying my access anyway. i’ve gone thru every resource available for fatherz (there aren’t many at all, look it up yourself. and tha onez dat are available are HIGHLY ineffective or very costly) and even looked into a private lawyer (which costs more than MOST criminal lawyers). i’m putting 1000% effort into doing whuteva i can to get bak into my kidz livez but i seem to be hitting major roadblockz at every turn. in my situation, my WORSE FEAR is dat i will not only be unsuccessfully re-united with my children, but dat in tha process they will also begin to judge ME for my absence. will they give me a chance to explain? will they still love me after being gone so long? will their mother teach them to hate me? if i’m unsuccessful in my fight, will they care enough to even come look for me to find out whut i have to say or whut happened? and if so, how can i make up for everything that i’ve missed? how can i heal a hurt that i didn’t cause (especially without turning tha blame bak on tha other parent whose “side” of tha story has probably been drilled in tha kidz head already). i would have never considered this “side” of the argument until i wuz ON this “side” and now that i AM, i’m more open to understanding and hearing whut my father has to say. but i don’t want my kidz to have to go though whut i’m going through before they finally get a chance, IT’Z JUS NOT FAIR. luckily, MY mother neva really spoke down on my father but i wazn’t so careful in choosing a mother for MY kidz so by now, i’m pretty sure dat they’ve heard that their father “ain’t shyt” and will continue to hear that until i’m finally able to speak to them for myself but by then, who knowz the damage that will have been done. in light of all this, i jus wanna make sure to tell folkz, JUDGE NOT. COMMUNICATE. REACH OUT. once u become an adult, do the adult thing and get tha facts for yourself. u might be surprised to learn that errthang didn’t go tha way u were “told” it went. u neva know when it might be YOU lookin for some understanding one day…

Just a ???? what about the dad that was’nt there but want’s to be there now, he still blame’s the mom for being ignorant when he found a good woman, but he’s always tried to reach out to his son, but wont get a response, what should a father do then?

It’s sad to see a young man that has a living father close and yet he still feels left alone. Sadly that’s the story a lot of us had to deal with; either we knew our fathers and he didn’t want to be bothered or mom was out runnin’ around and couldn’t tell us who daddy was. Thank God for caring step-daddies! I wonder if there’s in anomosity between Diddy & Al B Sure? It takes a strong (black) man to take care of someone else’s children and for that I applaud all the “Diddy’s ” out there! There is definitely a disconnect between Quincey and his dad. I really wish they work it out somehow. Blessed love to them all!!!!

Some of the comments on here are negative and ignorant. It really doesn’t matter if you had a step dad that has money or not. The shit hurts when someone who contributed in bringing you here can’t even take the time to be a father or a mother but someone who has no blood ties to you can step in and raise you like their own when they don’t have to. I am blessed that I have a step mother who stepped up to the plate while my birth mother was to busy doing drugs. It makes you wonder. Why did you even take the time to bring me here if you weren’t going to be here for me? My birth mother died bout 6 months ago and I regret that I didn’t take the time to get to know her when she was trying to get to know me well after I was fully grown. Trying to hold a grudge. Now that’s something that I have to live with. Let him get it out. Damn. Some people have to talk about it or need complete closure before they can move on. He just got lucky and had someone rich there to pick up his sperm doners slack.

Boo, Hoo.. Poor kid! Im sure that he really knows the pain of not having a father around, like the other milions of kids- with no daddy. He has a rich step father, who has been there for him his whole life(his words not mine). In my opinion he was just trying to be Al B on blast for not being there when he was growing up, but whats with the pic though? I didnt have no daddy around when I was growing up, and theres no snap shots of us together ever!!

You are so blessed young man to have someone like Diddy who was willing to step up to the plate and love you unconditionally and helped to mold and shape you into a caring human being. His love, dedication and support has been a light in your life. You look happy inspite of your pain. God has richly blessed you in many ways. Remember to ask God to help you to forgive and move on. I know it isn’t easy but with God on your side you can’t lose. Let your experience be an instrument in your hands to help others who are going through the same things but don’t have the type of support that you’ve had. May God bless you in your endeavors and heaven smile upon you and your family.

Quincy is definitely highly blessed to have someone to step in and be that father figure. He definitely sounds like he’s been molded into a great young man. It’s also good to know that he didn’t allow his heart to grow bitter and cold because it’s so easy to allow that to happen in such cases as these. That letter was heart-wrenching. I also know EXACTLY where he is coming from. It’s really hard but you keep shaping and molding that clay until you’ve created a beautiful, monumental sculpture. I wish him continued love and support. —-{@

i can’t do anything but respect this young man for the poise he showed in this letter; not once did he say a negative word about his daddy (Al B.) which i commend him on….like someone else commented, there are always 3 sides to every story: her view, his view, and the truth. maybe Al B. feels shitty for having another man raise his son (and did a damn good job, by the way) and just can’t be man enough to tell it. maybe diddy and kim’s hands are not totally clean in the situation.ionknow…….

Quincy, I was raised without a father in my life. Believe me and I will promise you. You will become a very strong and independent individual. You’re dad will regret it everyday of his life. There’s a point in your life he will try to come back. In that moment and time, you will have to decide if you need him there. The funny thing I already know the answer. You stay strong. Things do happen for a reason. You are blessed

daddies are not men who father your mom’s egg but the men who nurture and care for you. Quincy you are blessed Diddy became your daddy. You owe you a lot especially as many young like you do not know their fathers and e exhibit destructive behavior just because they wan the loving embrace of their dads

MMMmmmm!I personally like Rihanna because she is iconic/in many ways talented/attractive among other things. On the other hand, although I dont think Rihanna is a str8 lesbian-Gay. I do beleive the girl is either bi-sexual or bi-curious. Come to think of it, if she loves it both ways? That makes her even more intresting. Rihaan girl you are WANTEDDDD! The Bsharpp2 “Rihanna Shakee” video on myspace/youtube about Rihanna/Chris Brown/Janet Jackson/Etc (even Oprah is in it) brakak it down perfectly that Rihanna could very well be bi-sexual or bi-curious. Check it out!

Is this real, man this is a bunch of pre promotion for his next move. He is just setting the stage thats all. But who cares right? Diddy is a good man for taking care of someone elses kid, right?

Al B. does note look happy in any of the pictures with his son. That young man is a mini me of his father in looks only. He has the mind of his father, Diddy. You did good Diddy, you did good. No one can take Quincy’s love for you away.

Quincy said it best, step up your game. He still loves you Al B. He just wants you to be there. He’s not asking you for much more than that because he has everything. He wants to know that you love him as well, that’s all.

This is the most respectful letter to a father that has not be around for whatever reason. I hope he does something positive with it.

bigblkcookerman — Fri, 24 Apr 2009 11:28:53 +0000

As a father and a step father I understand both sides of this plate. I also understand that there are 3 sides to every story. His side, her side and the truth. So people should not be so quick to judge Al B.Sure because we don’t know the whole story.

By: reddsilknsatin

reddsilknsatin — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 21:57:22 +0000

Who the hell would have known that Al B. Sure was and (according to the letter) still is a deadbeat dad. That’s a damn shame, but now coming from his sons own words he can see the hurt, pain and devastation that was created by not being around. How can a man still call himself a man if he can’t raise the seed he created? How can he claim to be a man but yet let another man raise his own blood? Crazy, but it’s still happening. It is just good to see that a child, now a grown man can speak those painful words describing what he felt growing up so eloquently and still without disrespecting his biological father. Father’s take note, this could be your son if you continue to walk down the deadbeat path.
