50 Cent has been going after Diddy quite a bit lately. Overall, this has mostly been due to the allegations that the mogul had something to do with 2Pac’s murder. Fif has made sure to joke about this on numerous occasions, even if Puff probably hates it. Now, however, Sean Combs is going through a larger legal battle. His ex Cassie recently hit him with a $30 million lawsuit with some heavy allegations. For instance, she claims that he allegedly raped her and made her have sex with numerous men.
Furthermore, Cassie made the allegation that Diddy had a hand in blowing up Kid Cudi’s car. Overall, there is a lot here and while he denies all of the allegations, the ensuing case will be interesting to watch play out. Moreover, fans have been curious to see how Fif would respond to all of this. Well, we got our answer last night as he took to Twitter with a selfie in which he looked especially confused. Subsequently, he wrote a caption that expresses his disbelief over what is being alleged.
“Damn brother love, brother love, brother love, you out here looking CRAZY AS A MF. LMAO,” 50 Cent wrote. This is certainly how a lot of people felt watching these allegations hit Twitter in real time. Of course, a lot of the focus is rightly on Cassie who has been through a lot. She is receiving a lot of support from her peers and those in and around the industry. Hopefully, she will be able to find peace out of this horrific situation.
With 50 Cent throwing his hat into the ring here, where do you think all of this will go next? Let us know your thoughts on the situation, in the comments section below.

Keke Palmer has had a busy month so far, filing for a restraining order from ex-partner Darius Jackson and for full custody of their seven-month-old son, Leodis. She accuses the fitness trainer of abusing her, nearly hitting her with a car, trespassing into her home, and more. For obvious reasons, the allegations have sparked outrage. She’s since been met with an outpouring of support from fans and peers alike, as she navigates the difficult circumstances.
Luckily, she appears to be doing well amid the fallout, recently visiting Paris with Leodis. In new photos, the adorable duo is seen dodging rain under an umbrella, and Keke’s all smiles with her little one. She rocked a black and red dress with a pair of cozy boots while Leodis kept it casual with a sweet knit beanie. Of course, the two of them paid the Eiffel Tower a visit, later venturing off to the Quai Branly Museum. Clearly, the performer’s not letting her ex’s alleged control issues keep her down any longer, and has been quick to get back to living her life to the fullest with her son.
Things are already looking up for the new mother, and fans love to see it. Her Parisian escape isn’t the only thing she has going for her these days, either. Keke also just recently announced that she’ll be hosting the 2023 Soul Train Awards. On top of hosting, she’s also scheduled to perform alongside artists like Coco Jones, Fridayy, BJ The Chicago Kid, Muni Long, and more. The awards show is set to air on BET on November 26.
Obviously, they don’t call her Keke “Keep a Bag” Palmer for nothing. What do you think of Keke Palmer and Leodis’ Parisian adventure? Are you glad to see her out and about amid recent drama? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
Today, Diddy’s former partner Cassie appeared in court, filing a lawsuit against him for alleged sexual assault and abuse. Her filing includes various damning accusations against the Bad Boy Records founder. She cited several instances of alleged assault. She even made some shocking claims about his reaction to her relationship with Kid Cudi.
Her suit says that Diddy told Cassie he was going to “blow up” Kid Cudi’s car. Allegedly, the conversation took place during Paris Fashion Week in 2012. “Around that time, Kid Cudi’s car exploded in his driveway,” the suit reads. Kid Cudi’s team appeared to confirm this earlier today, saying, “This is all true.” Allegedly, Diddy offered Cassie a large sum of money to keep the allegations under wraps, but she chose to come forward instead. “After years in silence and darkness, I am finally ready to tell my story, and to speak up on behalf of myself and for the benefit of other women who face violence and abuse in their relationships,” she stated.

“Mr. Combs vehemently denies these offensive and outrageous allegations,” Diddy’s lawyer Ben Brafman stated. “For the past six months, Mr. Combs has been subjected to Ms. Ventura’s persistent demand of $30 million, under the threat of writing a damaging book about their relationship, which was unequivocally rejected as blatant blackmail. Despite withdrawing her initial threat, Ms. Ventura has now resorted to filing a lawsuit riddled with baseless and outrageous lies, aiming to tarnish Mr. Combs’s reputation and seeking a payday.”

The entertainment industry has been rocked by bombshell accusations as Cassie, an R&B singer and former signee of music mogul Sean Combs (Puff Daddy or Diddy), has filed a federal lawsuit against him, per the New York Times. The lawsuit alleges a decade-long pattern of control, abuse, and even rape, stunning the public and prompting strong denials from Combs.
“After years in silence and darkness,” the singer said in a statement, “I am finally ready to tell my story, and to speak up on behalf of myself and for the benefit of other women who face violence and abuse in their relationships.” Below, we broke down Cassie’s lawsuit and the allegations against Diddy.

Cassie, born Casandra Ventura, entered the limelight in 2005 and soon found herself in a romantic relationship with Sean Combs, who significantly shaped her career after signing her to Bad Boy. However, according to the lawsuit, what initially seemed like a promising collaboration turned into a nightmare for Cassie. She alleges that Combs exerted control over her life, including threatening to hold back her music, finances, and career, leading to a tumultuous relationship marred by alleged abuse.

The lawsuit outlines a disturbing series of events that paint a harrowing picture of abuse and manipulation endured by Cassie during her relationship with Combs. More specifically, it accuses Combs of subjecting her to physical assaults, including beatings that reportedly occurred multiple times annually. Additionally, she claimed Combs provided her with “copious amounts of drugs,” such as ecstasy and ketamine, and urged her to consume them. Shockingly, the suit alleges that Combs coerced her into having sex with male sex workers while he filmed these encounters. Moreover, Cassie claims that in 2018, Combs raped her in her own home.
Diddy allegedly had significant control over her life, including medical files. She purported that a report from an MRI scan she underwent (potentially due to drug use or abuse she suffered at the hands of Diddy) directly went to Combs. Cassie cited a specific incident of abuse that she faced at the hands of Diddy, where he allegedly kicked her repeatedly in the face for talking to a talent agent. She said when she asked to go to her parents’ home, Diddy refused.
Another shocking revelation from the lawsuit regarded Kid Cudi. Ventura and Cudi reportedly began dating in early 2012, angering Diddy to the point where he threatened to blow up his car. “Around that time,” the suit says, “Kid Cudi’s car exploded in his driveway.” Cudi reportedly corroborated the claims, stating, “This is all true.”
What Cassie Wants From The Lawsuit & The Defendants

Cassie’s legal action seeks unspecified damages and accountability. However, an attorney for Combs said that she previously demanded $30 million prior to filing the suit. Cassie aims to shed light on the trauma she alleges she experienced during her time with Combs. The lawsuit names not only Combs but also individuals associated with him and his companies as defendants. Cassie’s legal team asserts that these entities enabled and covered up Combs’s alleged behavior, fostering a toxic environment that perpetuated her suffering.
Diddy’s Response

In response to the allegations, Sean Combs, who recently joined hip-hop’s billionaire club, vehemently denies the accusations made by Cassie. His lawyer, Ben Brafman, dismisses the claims as baseless and part of an attempt to tarnish Combs’s reputation. “Mr. Combs vehemently denies these offensive and outrageous allegations. For the past six months, Mr. Combs has been subjected to Ms. Ventura’s persistent demand of $30 million, under the threat of writing a damaging book about their relationship, which was unequivocally rejected as blatant blackmail. Despite withdrawing her initial threat, Ms. Ventura has now resorted to filing a lawsuit riddled with baseless and outrageous lies, aiming to tarnish Mr. Combs’s reputation and seeking a payday,” Brafman said.
However, in response, Cassie’s attorney, Douglas Wigdor, said Combs actually tried to buy her silence. “Mr. Combs offered Ms. Ventura eight figures to silence her and prevent the filing of this lawsuit,” he said. “She rejected his efforts.”
Conclusion
Cassie’s decision to come forward aligns with New York’s Adult Survivors Act, offering a platform for survivors of abuse to seek justice even after the statute of limitations has expired. The lawsuit accuses Diddy of sexual abuse, sexual assault, and violations of New York City’s gender-motivated violence laws. However, since a number of these incidents occurred in different cities, she also said that she’s a victim of human trafficking.
“With the expiration of New York’s Adult Survivors Act fast approaching,” she said, “it became clear that this was an opportunity to speak up about the trauma I have experienced and that I will be recovering from for the rest of my life.”
As the legal battle unfolds, it’s crucial to recognize the significance of survivors speaking out against alleged perpetrators. Regardless of the verdict, Cassie’s courageous act emphasizes the importance of addressing abuse and standing up for victims’ rights. The case underscores the need for accountability and the ongoing conversation surrounding the treatment of women in the music industry and beyond.
During a recent episode of his podcast, Suge Knight opened up about late Death Row Records artist Jewell, and made some pretty shocking claims. He told Collect Call With Suge Knight listeners how much effort and money he put into her. According to him, however, she failed to live up to the label’s expectations.
“Jewell never put an album out,” he explained. “She had a brand-new Volvo, she got a check every month, her bills was paid. I paid damn-near 200-and-something thousand dollars for the fat-people surgery to get sh*t cut out and sucked out.” Suge’s claims didn’t stop there, however. He went on to say that he’s gone out of his way to keep his artists far away from the long arm of the law, regardless of how serious their crimes were.
Suge Knight Claims He Spent $700K To Keep Jewell Out Of Prison
“Jewell killed a mothaf*cking man,” he alleged. “I paid $700,000 to make sure she didn’t do a day in prison.” Jewell’s not the only artist he says he paid to keep out of trouble. He went on to claim that Nate Dogg “robbed seven Taco Bells.” According to Suge, he paid a hefty price to ensure he stayed a free man. “He must’ve got 35 years,” he explained. “I paid half a million dollars to make sure he didn’t get no time.”
Suge Knight’s continued to make wild claims on his new podcast, also recently alleging that he took a gun charge for Dr. Dre. “I stopped Dre from getting a lot of time for beating up a gang of b*tches and all the sh*t he was doing that made me… you know,” he described. “I gave him the business manager number. The guy calls the business manager. The business manager wires the money for Dre’s guns to a guy who will give him the guns. A year or two later, on my birthday, they arrested me. The feds.” What do you think of Suge Knight’s recent wild claims about late Death Row Records artist Jewell?

In a new audio snippet obtained by DJ Akademiks, Keke Palmer’s mother Sharon unleashes on Darius Jackson during a heated phone call. Specifically, she takes aim at Darius and his brother Sarunas, his own mother, and more. Usher even caught a stray during her rant, which surrounded his response to Keke attending his concert back in July.
Famously, Darius had plenty to say about the mother of his child’s concert attire, publicly shaming her for it on social media. This resulted in a great deal of backlash, and ultimately, their split. Their relationship status remained unclear since the incident, until Keke filed for a restraining order against him earlier this month. In her filing, Keke cited various instances of alleged abuse, which include nearly hitting her with a car, trespassing into her home and attacking her, and more. Keke additionally filed for full physical and legal custody of their 1-year-old son, Leodis.
Sharon Palmer Takes Aim At Darius Jackson & His Family During Heated Phone Call
In explosive audio obtained by DJ Akademiks, listeners hear the alleged voices of Keke Palmer, Darius Jackson, and Sharon (Keke’s Mother) having a very intense conversation:
In the audio, Sharon is heard tearing into Darius and his family for publicly shaming her daughter, claiming that Usher is “gay,” and suggesting that Keke’s outfit shouldn’t have sparked any concern. She didn’t hold back, calling the father of her grandson a “limp d*ck motherf*cker.”
“That’s what your mama raised. D*dk suckers cause your brother’s a d*ck sucker too. You probably suck d*ck too,” she continued. “Keep f*cking around I might get somebody to f*ck you!” She went on, claiming that she had attempted to keep things civil with him out of suspicion that he has “mental problems.” According to her, he and his family have a poor understanding of the business, and completely overreacted to Keke’s Usher outfit. “Usher is gay!” she shouted. “You and your st*pid a** family don’t even understand the business. Usher is gay guys!!!” What do you think of this new audio snippet obtained by DJ Akademiks? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
DomiNque Perry has taken to social media, clarifying a post she made following Keke Palmer’s abuse allegations against Darius Jackson. The Insecure actress, and mother of Sarunas Jackson’s daughter Zen, shared a meme of Michael Jackson eagerly eating popcorn. Some social media users perceived the post as shade towards Palmer, as it seemingly made light of the disturbing accusations. Perry made it clear that this was not her intention, revealing she was trying to “laugh to keep from crying.”
She shared a lengthy statement on the matter on her Instagram Story. Her post describes how she would never intentionally laugh in the faces of domestic violence victims. “I would never laugh at ANYONE that is subject to domestic abuse female or male,” she wrote. “As it’s known abuse comes in different definitions, silent and physical. Only the people enduring such behavior truly understand the effect. Women have been manipulated, abused, lied on for centuries, and put their head down for the fear of not being believed. We need to stop being afraid.”
Perry continued, citing her own alleged experiences with domestic abuse. “I may not be at the highest platform in my career just yet to be heard and/or supported by the public, but whenever that time comes, everyone will listen,” she wrote. Following her message, it came out that Sarunas is currently fighting to have their daughter stay in California, despite Perry having raised her in Texas since she was born. Perry wants the case to get dismissed, claiming that Sarunas’ visitation of the child is “dependent on when he expresses a desire to see her.”
She also says that “despite the emotional volatility and intimidation that [Sarunas] has directed towards” her, she’s continued “fostering a positive co-parenting relationship with [Sarunas] because [she knows] that is in Zen’s best interest.” All of this also follows Keke Palmer’s mother speaking out against Sarunas. Sharon Palmer alleges that he was well-aware that his brother was abusive.

Try as she might, Chrisean Rock just can’t seem to stay out of trouble lately. When she’s not feuding with Blueface, the new mother has seemingly taken to unleashing her anger on others who are prohibiting her from getting what she wants at that moment. On Friday (November 10) evening, reports of physical violence between Rock and James Wright began circulating on various blogs. According to insiders, Tamar Braxton brought the 23-year-old to appear at her live show as a guest performer last night. When it was time for her to go on, she was unreachable.
As a result, showrunners had no choice but to skip over Rock’s track and move on to Braxton’s next guest. According to @theneighborhoodtalk, the Baltimore native was out front attempting to get her friend inside the venue when she missed her cue. Chrisean apparently went backstage to seek out more answers, and upon entering Tamar’s dressing room, she spoke with Wright. In the middle of the man’s explanation, the reality starlet allegedly punched him in the face several times as she was under the impression he was lying to her.
The Braxton Family Values cast member was reportedly in the room at the time, and police came to the scene. Before they could speak with Rock there, she had already fled and was posting videos on her Instagram Story showing off her iced-out wrist and fingers that were likely feeling tender after throwing a few right hooks.
Are you surprised to see Chrisean Rock back on her bulls**t so soon after becoming a mother? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for any updates on James Wright’s recovery, as well as the authorities potentially speaking to his alleged assailant.
Yesterday, news broke that Keke Palmer filed for a restraining order from the father of her child, Darius Jackson. In her filing, Palmer cited various instances of alleged abuse that she endured at the hands of her former partner. She accuses him of striking her, trespassing into her home, and more. For obvious reasons, this revelation has Palmer’s fanbase up in arms. The thought of the beloved performer being the victim of any kind of violence is incredibly disturbing. Amid the chatter, some fans have called on none other than Saucy Santana, who’s previously made it clear that he’s not afraid to throw hands.
The rapper shared a fan’s Tweet, advising him to add Darius Jackson to his “list of f*** boys to dog walk.” Saucy Santana doesn’t appear to be opposed to the idea, responding with a laughing emoji. “So, apparently yall want me to fight Keke baby daddy,” he also wrote. While violence is never the answer, some fans are finding comfort in the idea of Jackson getting a taste of his own alleged medicine.
Though Saucy Santana appears to be on the right side of this debate, he recently sparked controversy over a physical threat he made towards DJ Akademiks. The two of them went back and forth online after Ak called out Yung Miami for using a gay slur. Saucy Santana sided with the City Girl, throwing a few jabs at the internet personality in the process. He then threatened to “beat” as well as sexually assault DJ Akademiks, which as one can imagine, raised some eyebrows. This led to an emotional response from DJ Akademiks, however, it doesn’t seem as though Saucy Santana intends on slowing down.
He just recently teased a DJ Akademiks diss track, in which he fires various shots at the commentator for his unrelenting criticism of women. What do you think of Saucy Santana’s response to Keke Palmer’s situation with Darius Jackson? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
Darius Jackson is facing some pretty hefty allegations from his ex, Keke Palmer. Last night, it was reported that Palmer had filed for a restraining order from Jackson. Furthermore, she filed for full custody of their child. Subsequently, Palmer was granted both of those requests. Although she will have to go to court again later in December, it remains clear that the judge is siding with her. Overall, she alleges that Jackson has physically abused her on numerous occasions.
For instance, she claims that after showing him a photo of her in a bikini, he allegedly got angry and grabbed at her neck. Moreover, he tried grabbing her phone and allegedly continued assaulting her in the process. Now, however, Jackson himself is responding in a more indirect way. While he has not addressed what Palmer has said, he does seem to be focused on his child right now. In the tweet below, he wrote “I love you, son. See you soon.”
As it stands, he does not have custody of his child, so this reaction does make sense. However, you can imagine just how harshly fans have been reacting to this post. Many are livid with the allegations and are seeking some form of punishment. Overall, it is not a good look for him, and the public support is fully behind Palmer right now. Only time will tell whether or not a judge will continue to side with Palmer. She goes back to court in December, and it is there where we may get some insight into the intricacies of what went down.
For now, this remains a developing story with numerous moving parts. Hopefully, we will get some more clarity on the situation, very soon. Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the music world. We will always be sure to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists.
