'But I haven't. I don't know what I'm going to do without you baby. I miss you so much. Today I'm going to pay tribute to you, I'm going to try and find the words to explain our unexplainable relationship.' 

In another tweet Diddy said: 'We were more than best friends, we were more than soul mates... And I miss you so much. Super Black Love.'
