Diddy among Time's most influential people Puff Daddy, or more specifically Sean "Diddy" Combs, was named one of Time magazine's 100 most influential people. Puffy is listed among a group of "builders and titans," and those on the list are described by Time as people who use "innovation, grand plans, style and substance -- that's what it takes to be influential in the world of business." In Time's ode to Diddy, written by designer Vivienne Tam, he's called a "Renaissance man" and "force of nature."
