October 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Ray J went off on Diddy during the first episode of his new show, The Reality Check News. After doing so, he shared a clip of the segment on Instagram, in which he discussed the iconic artist’s recent arrest in New York City on charges of alleged sex trafficking and racketeering. Diddy has already pleaded not guilty to the alleged crimes.

“Diddy was my friend. What do you do when you never seen all this sh*t that people are talking about? Do you believe it? Everybody’s innocent until proven guilty?” Ray asked during the show. From there, he cotninued: “Do you forgive somebody for taking somebody’s ass? There’s a lot of people out here taking from people. People are getting robbed of not only their money and their spirituality, they’re getting robbed of their womanhood and manhood. Asses are being taken in ways that nobody can explain.”

Ray also brought up authorities’ allegation that they found 1,000 bottles of baby oil during the homeland security raids on his properties, earlier this year. “I see a lot of jokes out there right now talking about baby oil,” he added. “Everybody got a joke about having about baby oil or lube. Is that okay? Is that the message?” Before concluding, he warned that he knows of several more people in the industry absuing their power. “I’m exhausted with the people in this industry that have power who are abusing the power. I can say a lot of names,” he said. “I won’t today but I will soon.”

Diddy Accuses Cassie Of Cheating On Him Before His Alleged Abuse

September 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy’s attorney, Marc Agnifilo, reportedly accused Cassie of cheating on his client with her now-husband, during their relationship. Referring to her as “victim one,” at the Bad Boy mogul’s arraignment on Tuesday, Agnifilo said she had been sleeping with her trainer for years, according to Inner City Press. Cassie previously sued Diddy for alleged sexual abuse back in 2023, but the two quickly settled. Months later, CNN published footage of Diddy hitting her at a hotel in 2016.

Authorities arrested Diddy on Monday night while releasing a 14-page federal indictment against him. He’s continued to maintain his innocence and has pleaded not guilty to racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. “We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” Agnifilo said, as noted by AllHipHop. “Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children and working to uplift the Black community. He is an imperfect person, but he is not a criminal.”

Diddy is currently behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. His legal team failed to get him out on bail at the arraignment, as the prosecutors claimed that he’s harassed alleged victims and witnesses in the past. Judge Robyn Tarnofsky ended up ruling that “this is a crime that happens behind closed doors, even when pretrial services is monitoring,” as caught by CNN.

Diddy’s Lawyer References Cassie

In a letter to the judge, his legal team labeled the conditions at the jail “horrific” and referenced recent suicides and a murder that took place there. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy on HotNewHipHop.

Agnifilo: These two people were in love. Victim-1 ended up marrying the trainer that Mr. Combs got for her. They had been cheating on each other for years. But now she had two kids with the trainer. Years later, she realized she had a good thing with Mr. Combs

Kalenna Harper Denies Seeing Diddy Engage In “Abusive Or Unlawful” Behavior

September 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, Diddy was hit with another lawsuit, this time from Diddy-Dirty Money member Dawn Richard. She accuses the Bad Boy Records founder of sexual and emotional abuse, as well as assaulting his ex Cassie in front of her. In the suit, she alleges that she and Kalenna Harper witnessed him abuse Cassie on multiple occasions. Harper, on the other hand, denies this.

In a statement posted on her Instagram story today, Harper addresses the lawsuit. She says that some of Richard’s allegations don’t reflect her own experiences. “While I fully respect Dawn’s right to recount her experiences, I want to emphasize that her account reflects her personal perspective and should not be interpreted as a universal truth applicable to everyone involved,” the statement reads.

“Many of the allegations and incidents described in this suit are not representative of my experiences,” it continues. “And some do not align with my own truth.” Harper went on to add that she herself doesn’t recall witnessing “any behavior that could be considered abusive or unlawful.” Harper’s statement arrives only a few months after she defended Diddy in Rolling Stone‘s piece about his legal saga.

“Singer-songwriter Kalenna Harper says one of the highs of her life was joining Combs’ Diddy-Dirty Money group in 2009,” the outlet wrote. “‘He was f**king cool as sh*t,’ she says, adding that artists who blame Combs for the trajectory of their careers may suffer from ‘disgruntled employee syndrome.’” What do you think of Kalenna Harper claiming that some of the allegations in Dawn Richard’s lawsuit against Diddy don’t align with her own experiences?

Ray J Says Diddy Needs An Exorcism After Seeing The Cassie Assault Video

June 5, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Ray J says that there’s a demon side of Diddy and the Bad Boy mogul needs an exorcism to get it out. He discussed Diddy and the recent video of him appearing to assault Cassie at a hotel in 2016 during an interview with The Art of Dialogue. He says the behavior was “shameful and unacceptable.”

“It’s not OK,” he said of the apparent abuse from the video. “When somebody is around somebody and we’re counting on them to be our one of our leaders in a space that we’re all trying to get to that’s not acceptable to do and it’s not OK. I mean, it might be forgivable in a sense of a spiritual realm of life or forgive everybody but it’s unforgettable, and that’s where you just draw the line on friendship and hanging out and supporting and being cool. It’s like n****s it’s done, and that’s it.”

He continued: “And it’s not and it’s not something that n****s can just take lightly. You cannot do that. Not OK. It’s not cool. Period. [The video] was heartbreaking and shameful and unacceptable I’ve never seen nothing like that. I’ve never seen nothing like that in the history of my life, so that’s a new for me. I don’t know what kind of demon you are, but somebody need to motherf*ckin’ perform an exorcism fast.” Check out Ray J’s full comments on Diddy below.

Charlamagne Tha God On Diddy’s Allegations: “The Issue Is Patriarchy”

May 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Charlamagne Tha God discussed the series of allegations Diddy is facing as well as the new video of him abusing Cassie in 2016 during an appearance on The View on Wednesday. Promoting his new book, Get Honest or Die Lying, Charlamagne discussed the role the patriarchy plays in enabling domestic violence to take place.

“The issue is domestic violence. The issue is exactly what I said about men not going to do the proper work on themselves and they’re dealing with a lot of pain and a lot of hurt and a lot of unhealed trauma,” he said. “And they’re projecting that pain and that hurt onto other people. The issue is patriarchy, right. As long as you have a system where men feel superior to women and they’re dealing with that pain and they’re dealing with that hurt, we’re going to continue to project that onto our women.”

Charlamagne continued: “But right now as I’m talking, there’s a woman out there getting beat up by a man and she’s not going to get [any] news coverage. Nobody’s going to talk about her.” CNN was the first to publish the footage of Diddy attacking Cassie. The Bad Boy mogul apologized for the incident in the following days with a video on social media. He explained that he began going to therapy afterward and is working on bettering himself. “I went and I sought out professional help, I got into going to therapy, going to rehab. I had to ask God for his mercy and grace. I’m so sorry,” he said in part.

Tahiry Jose Labels Joe Budden An Abuser & He Fires Back, Calling Her A “Failed Gold Digger”

May 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Tahiry Jose and Joe Budden went back and forth on social media, this week, after the podcast host criticized Diddy for the footage of him assaulting Cassie back in 2016. In a comment on Instagram, Tahiry labeled Budden an abuser and accused him of throwing her down a flight of stars. She described seeing Diddy’s video as “triggering.” Budden eventually fired back, calling the story a lie and countering that she was the abuser.

“You are a lying, failed gold digger that has abused, targeted and manipulated many men,” Budden wrote. “Outside of me you lack an identity which is why you’ve tried desperately to attach yourself to me for over 15 years. The last time i saw you i purchased a mattress from you and you were happy you made the sale, you were fine then. There was that night after Starlets 6 years ago when you invited me inside your new place, you were fine then too. You were on my body your entire last stint on L&HH and tried your best to disrespect my son’s mother in the process, i had to ask producers to keep you away from us like the cancer you are!! Yet you continue to slight my name online because… it’s your identity.”

Budden concluded: “I don’t speak to you or about you because it’s low vibrational. You’re a low level Dyckman con woman that’s been lying about (you already know) for ages. I pray you heal and move on one day, hopefully this is our last exchange…. Prayers to all real victims” Check out the full back-and-forth below.

May 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kola Boof, who was allegedly a friend of Kim Porter, has come forward to clarify that she’s on Cassie’s side after facing backlash for a controversial post she made earlier in the week. She had threatened to “obliterate” Cassie if she tried to silence her comments on Porter after claiming that her late friend was also a victim of Diddy’s alleged abuse. The drama comes after CNN published footage of Diddy appearing to assault Cassie at a hotel in 2016. The Bad Boy mogul has since released an apology video.

“CASSIE ‘fans’ are the ones making it into something that I did not say,” Kola Boof wrote on Twitter. “We’re ALLL on Cassie’s side. Nobody’s against Cassie. But the truth of what KIM PORTER went through will be spoken. And I WILL SPEAK IT!!!!”

As for her original post, Kola Boof had written: “My heart goes out to CASSIE. The abuse she’s endured is horrible. I hope she gets more victories against Diddy. But if she tries to sue me for speaking up for KIM PORTER–I will obliterate her. Point blank. And that goes for DIDDY too. I’m here for Kim.” While going back and forth with users in the replies, she claimed that Cassie’s lawyers have already reached out to her. Check out her latest post on the matter below.

Kola Boof Speaks Out

CASSIE “fans” are the ones making it into something that I did not say.

We’re ALLL on Cassie’s side.

Nobody’s against Cassie.

But the truth of what KIM PORTER went through will be spoken. And I WILL SPEAK IT!!!!

Despite the disturbing video, Diddy won’t be facing criminal charges for the incident as the statute of limitations has already passed. Several voices, including Kodak Black’s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, have theorized Diddy isn’t out of the woods yet, however. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy and Cassie on HotNewHipHop.

Kodak Black’s Attorney Labels Diddy’s Alleged Assault Video A “Leak,” Theorizes More Trouble Coming His Way

May 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kodak Black’s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, weighed in on the legal implications of the new video of Diddy allegedly assaulting Cassie at a hotel in Los Angeles from 2016. He theorized that CNN, which published the footage, didn’t “obtain” it and instead it was leaked. In turn, Cohen thinks there’s bigger legal trouble headed the Bad Boy mogul’s way.

“Anyone who thinks CNN ‘obtained’ the video is a sucker,” Cohen wrote on Instagram. “This was a leak, and to me, it telegraphs the fact he’s about to be charged in a bigger case. This way, if Cassie is the star witness, they can rely on the fact she was essentially under his control. By the way, that is why this case should have been settled way before the lawsuit was filed.” In a comment on the post, he added: “One other observation is there is a reason he hasn’t left the country or flew anywhere the past month. My belief is they would arrest in a criminal complaint if he flew anywhere.”

Cohen isn’t the only one with theories as to the reasoning behind the release of the video. 50 Cent made a similar remark while sharing the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office’s statement on the video on Instagram. The department revealed that, due to the statute of limitations on assault, Diddy won’t be facing any charges regarding the incident.

50 Cent Theorizes Why Diddy’s Alleged Assault Footage Was Published

May 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

50 Cent shared a theory regarding the timing of CNN putting out the viral video of Diddy appearing to assault Cassie on Friday. The clip, which stems from 2016, shows the Bad Boy mogul seemingly grabbing his then-parter from behind, throwing her to the ground, and kicking her. Shortly after CNN published the video, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office put out a statement explaining that the statute of limitations on assault has passed and in turn, Diddy won’t be facing any charges.

50 shared the statement on Instagram, on Saturday, adding in the caption: “This is why they put that tape out, they know they can’t charge him with what we saw, but they know we can’t unsee what we saw.”

As for the D.A.’s statement, the office admits that the video is both “disturbing” and “difficult to watch,” but that they can’t do anything. It adds: “If the conduct depicted occurred in 2016, unfortunately we would be unable to charge as the conduct would have occurred beyond the timeline where a crime of assault can be prosecuted. As of today, law enforcement has not presented a case related to the attack depicted in the video against Mr. Combs, but we encourage anyone who has been a victim or witness to a crime to report it to law enforcement or reach out to our office for support from our Bureau of Victims Services.”
