Sting Not Distancing From Diddy's 'I'll Be Missing You' - 'It's Still My Song'
Sting has stressed that despite being credited as a songwriter on Diddy's hit song 'I'll Be Missing You', he does not want to distance himself from the track.
The Police frontman co-wrote the song with rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs and Faith Evans in 1997.
The song was a tribute to the late Notorious B.I.G., who was shot and killed earlier that year.
It became a huge hit, topping the charts in the US and UK and winning a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group.
Sting has said in the past that he is proud of his work on the song, but he also understands why some people might be uncomfortable with his involvement.
He has said that he does not want to profit from the song, and he has donated his royalties to charity.
In a recent interview, Sting said that he still considers "I'll Be Missing You" to be his song, even though it was released by Diddy.
He said that he is happy to be associated with the song, and he is grateful for the success it has brought him.
"It's still my song," Sting said. "I wrote it. I'm proud of it. I'm not going to distance myself from it."
Sting's comments come at a time when there is a growing debate about the role of white artists in hip-hop.
Some people have argued that white artists should not be involved in hip-hop, as it is a genre that was created by and for black people.
Others have argued that white artists can be involved in hip-hop, as long as they are respectful of the genre and its history.
