“Ain’t no homecoming like a Howard homecoming,” Diddy said. “And it feels so good to be home.”
The hip-hop mogul received a standing ovation from the graduating class of 2014 from Howard University.
“Don’t be afraid to close your eyes and dream, but then open your eyes and see,” Combs told the graduation class of 2014 at Howard University.
