Once Meek Mill moves away from being outspoken to a fault on social media, you will know that hell has frozen over. Moreover, he’s tired of people speaking on his name and dragging him through the mud as of late online, a sentiment that he expressed through a simple tweet on Friday (May 3). “Them hate campaigns gonna make the people love me more when they find out who’s really who in this s**t!” the Philly MC expressed on his account. With this idea, he’s suggesting that this will all work out for him in the long run, as there’s apparently more to expose about his detractors, enemies, and attackers than they’d have you believe.
Furthermore, this is likely a reference to how people have treated or referred to Meek Mill ever since his name came up in the Diddy scandal. These allegations frame him as more of an unfortunate participant and possibly even a victim of serious sex-related crimes, and point to his association. While the Dream Chasers rapper has denied any and all claims, they continue to be a punchline against him from other social media users.
However, Meek Mill’s spent a lot of time addressing this so-called “hate campaign” online, so his responses have just added fuel to trolls’ fire. For example, folks clowned him for a recent outfit, which he also responded to and called out unnecessary hate over. Whether or not that’s valid, pretty much anyone’s association with one of the biggest scandals in recent memory in the pop culture world would put a target on their backs. So this “hate campaign” is unsurprising, often unjust, but also exacerbated by continuous responses to it.
As such, a lot of folks would rather have Meek Mill take some time off and focus on himself, something that he definitely did but couldn’t prioritize over the temptation of distraction. Maybe this is a trend cycle that he could’ve avoided if folks weren’t trying to egg him on so heavily. But at the same time, sometimes clowning is inevitable. All we can hope for the “Came From The Bottom” spitter is that he’s finding peace elsewhere.
Kanye West is looking to venture into the adult film industry, and Yeezy Porn might be on its way soon. The rapper and entrepreneur reportedly plans to launch a new wing for his Yeezy brand. He has also reportedly sought guidance from industry professional Mike Moz to help ready the new company before summer. As weird as this news is, many have come to expect anything from Ye. For one, Ye has been vocal about his history with porn. Secondly, his idea of moral propriety largely depends on his ever-changing moods. While this is mostly evident in Ye’s outbursts and controversial commentary, it’s also shown up in his music. Over the years, the explicit, NSFW lyrics in Kanye West’s songs have been a prevalent feature in his discography. But it’s still enough to wonder if the Jesus Is King Kanye has dipped for good.
“Blame Game” has a lot of great moments but in the same vein, there’s a raunchy portion of the track that left a few unsettled. “Been a long time since I spoke to you in a bathroom / Gripping you up, fucking and choking you / What the hell was I supposed to do? / I know you ain’t getting this type of dick from that local dude.” For what it’s worth, “Blame Game” would probably be secure as one of Kanye’s best ever, but many felt he went overboard.
8. What’s Better Than No Job?
“30 Hours” is one of the deep cuts from The Life of Pablo. Interestingly, while they’re currently embroiled in rap beef, the song has been rumored to be written by Drake. Nonetheless, the vulgarity is definitely Kanye West. “Cause you was in college complainin’ about it’s no jobs / But you were suckin’ a n***a’s dick the whole time / Well I guess a blowjob’s better than no job.”
On “Feedback,” Kanye is a businessman teaching the wrong negotiation tactics to a non-consenting audience. However, in hindsight, it’s the kind of crude material that Kanye West might employ on Yeezy Porn. “Whip that, bitch out / Tits out, oh s**t / My dick out, can she suck it right now? / F**k, can she f**k right now? / I done asked twice now / Can you bring your price down?” Definitely not the best way to express sexual frustration…
6. Wordplay With A Touch Of Awkward
“Now, if I fuck this model / And she just bleached her asshole / And I get bleach on my T-shirt / I’ma feel like an asshole.” These were Kanye West’s lyrics on his song, “Father Stretch My Hands, Pt. 1,” off The Life of Pablo. These lines aren’t exactly provocative or contentious. However, they are sure to make any listener feel awkward and uncomfortable. In an attempt to explain, Chance the Rapper, who co-wrote and worked with Kanye on the song, described the lyrics as Ye’s idea of humor. According to Chance, Kanye’s lyrics are a blend of hilarity crafted to hit a little too close to home.
Chasing love, all the bittersweet hours lost / Eating Asian pussy, all I need was sweet and sour sauce. On “I’m in It,” from Kanye West’s 2013 album Yeezus, Ye definitely crossed a line that warranted tremendous backlash. Although Yeezus received widespread praise and critical acclaim, “I’m in It,” faced significant scrutiny for its lackluster and insensitive content. It doesn’t take a literary critic to point out just how crude and racially insensitive most of the song’s lyrics were.
4. “I’m In It” Actively Seeks To Offend
As if the previous lyrics weren’t bad enough, they weren’t the only bars to garner criticism. The following lyrics are also courtesy of Kanye’s “I’m in it.” In fact, it’s almost impressive how a single artist managed to be this raunchy and racially offensive this many times in a single song. Kanye West’s decision to juxtapose a sexual act with the iconic Black power salute is nothing short of disappointing. Nonetheless, to say Kanye West felt any remorse for this would be highly presumptuous though, and a little optimistic, especially as fans look forward to the content he will have on the forthcoming Yeezy Porn. “Uh, she cut from a different textile / Uh, she love different kinds of sex now / Uh, black girl sippin’ white wine / Put my fist in her like a civil rights sign / And grabbed it with a slight grind / And held it ’til the right time / Then she came like AAAAAHHH!“
3. Kanye West’s Ignorance About The Gay Community Shines On “Don’t Like”
In that p—y so deep I could have drowned twice/ Rose gold Jesus piece with the brown ice / Eating good, vegetarian with the brown rice / Girls kissing girls, cause it’s hot, right? / But unless they use a strap-on then they not dykes. “Don’t Like” is a polarizing song with a chimera of themes: explicit sexual references, religious imagery, lesbianism, and sex toy use. Unsurprisingly, these themes are all crudely jumbled together. This song also raises questions about Kanye’s real-life interactions and understanding of gay people.
2. Kanye West Misses The Mark On “Monster”
“So mami, best advice is just to get on top of this / Have you ever had sex with a pharaoh? / Put the p—y in a sarcophagus / Now she claiming that I bruised her esophagus / Head of the class and she just won a swallowship / I’m living in the future so the present is my past / My presence is a present, kiss my ass.”
“Monster” is a certified classic Hip Hop track where a young Nicki Minaj delivers a powerful verse that far outshines Kanye West’s. However, Ye’s own lyrics were punchlined by comments about rough sexual acts, narcissism, and ancient Egyptian funeral practices he almost certainly doesn’t really understand.
1. Ye’s Sexual Detour On “Hell Of A Life”
“Tell me what I gotta do to be that guy / Said her price go down, she ever f–k a black guy / Or do anal, or do a gangbang / It’s kinda crazy that’s all considered the same thing / Well I guess a lotta ni–as do gang bang / And if we run trains, we all in the same gang / Runaway slaves all on a chain gang/ Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
“Hell Of A Life” is classic Ye at his best: skillfully crafted, brimming with innovation, and packed with intense commentary on society and politics. But then things take a dramatic turn. Kanye eventually begins to spit what is perhaps the longest, raunchiest, and most offensive set of lyrics in the history of the genre.
Kanye West is someone who never shies away from airing his unfiltered opinions, which has evidently cost him quite a bit in recent years. Regardless, the Chicago MC has maintained a fiercely loyal fanbase and continues to take part in various high-profile collabs. Just last week, for example, he unveiled his remix of Future and Metro Boomin’s We Don’t Trust You track, “Like That,” which originally featured Kendrick Lamar. His joint album with Ty Dolla Sign, Vultures 1, is also jam-packed with notable names. Travis Scott, Playboi Carti, Chris Brown, Quavo, and many more make appearances.
Of course, all of this arrived after Ye shared plans to go “Death con 3” on Jewish people. During a recent interview with Complex, Pusha T weighed in on why it is that other performers continue to work with the controversial figure. According to him, Ye’s artistry simply can’t be denied, nor can the level of exposure he’s able to provide to his collaborators.
Pusha T Claims People Work With Ye For “Visibility,” “Musicality” & “Genius-Level Production”

“I believe that there’s a level of visibility that comes along with being next to somebody like Ye,” he explained. “At the end of the day, it’s a level of musicality and genius-level production that comes along with being next to him. So you get a lot of things that I think artists are looking for these days in being next to him.”
“It’s all about the music for me and just making music at a certain level,” Pusha T also added. “I’ve been in this game a long time, so it’s about a certain type of hip-hop that I want to make. And truthfully, Ye definitely knows what I like to make, and I only want to be a part of things that I want to do.” What do you think of Pusha T’s take on artists continuing to work with Kanye West despite all of the controversy surrounding him? Does he have a point? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
Ray J has opened up a little bit more about the response to his bizarre new face tattoos, which have inspired some conversation online for their eccentric nature. Two of them are at least understandable: the names of his children Melody and Epik, but the one of his new TV network Tronix is the one that’s really raising eyebrows. Still, it seems like the singer and actor doesn’t really mind the backlash… unless it’s coming from a place where he knows it’s all love and genuine care. Moreover, he recently revealed during an Instagram livestream on Wednesday (April 24) that his sister, fellow celebrity Brandy, reached out to him after he posted a video showing the tats off with some worried thoughts.
“My sister hit me and said, ‘Yo, that post that you posted, take that s**t down,’” Ray J admitted. “She said I didn’t look clean, I looked dirty. My mouth was chapped, I got white s**t coming all out my mouth. My sister is mad at me because she doesn’t want my face tattoos. She doesn’t want me to come online irresponsibly. And that’s why I love her.”
Ray J Shows Off Face Tats In Video That Brandy Wanted Him To Take Down: Watch
Furthermore, the video already ran its course by the time that he took it down, but it’s unclear whether he was more critical of his appearance in the recording or if he’s regretting the tattoos themselves. Either way, it seems like Ray J is doing this for very different reasons than what people might assume or expect with a headline like this. “A lot of people think I’m going through some kind of crisis,” he expressed. “I appreciate y’all support for praying, but it ain’t like that. I’m never going to audition for s**t ever again. Why would I audition for a movie when I could just shoot my movie and put it up and make money?
Meanwhile, some people think that these are fake in the first place. We’ll see what Sukihana’s rumored new boo has to say about all this moving forward. Hopefully there are more people like his sister in his corner that are trying to balance out his antics. For more news and the latest updates on Ray J and Brandy, stick around on HNHH.
Much of Chris Brown’s allegedly abusive history against women is just that: accusations. However, given that he pled guilty to assaulting Rihanna 15 years ago and the testimonies from his former partners and the media, he has always dealt with folks writing him off due to this past. Granted, the Virginia native has always been quite aggressive in responding to these narratives, and it’s overall a very complicated web. Moreover, a lot of this is popping back up in the trending topics because of a recent tweet from multi-hyphenate Jill Scott praising Breezy. She responded to many folks online on Sunday (April 21) who offered their criticisms, support, or other comments about the matter.
“@chrisbrown is amazing,” Jill Scott wrote of Chris Brown on the social media platform. “How does ANYBODY sing like THAT? Dance, look, Act and Rap… like THAT? Beyond gifted. It appears, exceptional people have to go through exceptional [fire emoji]. There’s nothing to debate.” “I think the women he’s abused would disagree,” one user posited. “I doubt it,” Scott replied. “My Mother’s ex husband was a mean, violent human AND he could lay foundation better than anyone in my city. What he did with cement was awe inspiring. We got away. He got a raise and praise for his ability. God dealt with the rest.”
@chrisbrown is amazing. How does ANYBODY sing like THAT? Dance, look, Act and Rap… like THAT? Beyond gifted. It appears, exceptional people have to go through exceptional . There’s nothing to debate.
Look. Years of prayer, therapy, self reflection, & making every effort to keep my feet on the ground has made me compassionate for other human beings. People go through and do terrible . We say we believe in God ; pray for enlightenment. We ARE a living testimony.
“I love you Jill but he has so many domestic abuses cases it’s ridiculous we can’t look past that,” another fan replied. “I love you too,” Jill Scott responded. “I’m not here to fight anymore else’s battles. If/since women hear the stories, they should avoid that street. Running backwards in moving traffic makes zero sense. Therapy for every damn body.” “Yes he is, but that diss track [against Quavo] was too personal. He went too low,” one fan brought up, changing the topic real quick. “I agree,” she wrote in response.

When you’ve been labeled one of the greatest of all time, it means your portfolio is stacked with incredible feats. In boxing, no conversation about the best of the best without including Mike Tyson. The indomitable champion remains one of the most ruthless fighters in the ring. While he’s long since stayed out of the ropes, Mike Tyson is set to make a return against Jake Paul this July.
Tyson’s career is marked by several highs and lows: from his meteoric rise to becoming the youngest heavyweight champion in history to serving time in prison and making a killer comeback. However, in the ring, it’s been a treat for fans of the sport and the rest of the world at large. With so many iconic moments, some have left a mark in boxing history. Very few boxers could stun a crowd quite like Mike Tyson, and the following moments are proof.
7. Mike Tyson’s Controversial Post-Prison Bout Against Orlin Norris (1999)
#OnThisDay in 1999, Mike Tyson fought a 1 round No Contest with Orlin Norris in Las Vegas, Nevada. Tyson hit Norris clearly after the bell, and Norris fell in a way that apparently injured his knee and rendered him unable to continue. pic.twitter.com/KTDYmLwU0C
The bout between Mike Tyson and Orlin Norris on October 23, 1999, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, was a controversial one. Tyson, the former undisputed heavyweight champion, entered the ring with a 46–3 record. He faced Norris, a former WBA Cruiserweight champion with a 50–5 record. The match was Tyson’s second fight following a comeback after serving time in prison from 1992 to 1995.
Despite the anticipation generated ahead of the match, it ended abruptly and contentiously. After the first round bell, Tyson landed a punch that knocked Norris down, injuring his knee. This was despite his looking calm and in control throughout the round. Regardless, the blow, deemed a foul since it was delivered after the round had ended, resulted in the match being stopped and declared a no-contest before the second round could begin. The aftermath was expectedly chaotic, with debates over Tyson’s intent and the possibility that Norris might have lied about the injury. For people who believed Tyson had intentionally landed the post-bell punch, this incident added another layer of infamy to Tyson’s career.
6. The Aggressive Defeat Of Larry Holmes (1988)
In the winter of 1988, on January 22nd, Mike Tyson, the then-reigning heavyweight champion, faced off against Larry Holmes, a former champion staging a comeback. The bout, held at Trump Plaza in Atlantic City, was billed as “Heavyweight History.” By this time, Tyson was already known for his aggressive style and ferocity. He was at the peak of his career with a 32-0 record, including 28 knockouts. Holmes, on the other hand, was from a different time in boxing history. Nicknamed “The Easton Assassin,” he was a seasoned fighter with a 48-2 record and a formidable jab that humbled the great Muhammad Ali in 1980.
The fight was a clash between Tyson’s raw, youthful aggression against Holmes’ experienced, technical prowess. The winner was clear very quickly. Even as Holmes countered him perfectly, none of it seemed to matter, as Tyson hammered him with powerful combinations almost immediately after they entered the ring. In the fourth round, he delivered a devastating right hook that dropped Holmes for a third time. This led the referee to stop the fight and award Tyson the victory by technical knockout.
5. Mike Tyson Makes History Against Trevor Berbick (1986)
On the night of November 22, 1986, a young Mike Tyson, barely out of his teens and already a force to be reckoned with, stepped into the ring against Trevor Berbick. Tyson, freshly trained and brimming with confidence, already had a head-turning 27-0 record, with 25 knockouts. That year alone, he had demolished his opponents in a 12-0 run. That night at the Las Vegas Hilton, 20-year-old Tyson was dressed in his (now) signature black trunks and shoes, draped with a simple white towel, ready to show the world the making of a legend.
Meanwhile, Trevor Berbick was the recently crowned WBC heavyweight champion. He had earned his title through grit and experience, notably defeating Muhammad Ali in the legend’s final fight and edging out Pinklon Thomas by a narrow points decision. However, the stage was set for a changing of the guard. The fight was swift and decisive. Tyson, a whirlwind of power and aggression, overwhelmed Berbick, who found himself outmatched and outclassed. The second-round technical knockout was a statement: Tyson was not just a contender but a champion. He became the youngest heavyweight title holder in history. All it took was 2 minutes 35 seconds.
4. The 91-Second Match Against Michael Spinks (1988)
Mike Tyson vs. Michael Spinks. Two undefeated heavyweight champions. This is the whole fight, by the way, because Mike was efficient.
The Tyson v. Spinks battle took place on June 27, 1988, at the Convention Hall in Atlantic City. Dubbed “Once and For All” by promoters, it marks one of the most petrifying Tyson matches of all time. Michael Spinks, nicknamed “Jinx,” held a 31-0 record with 21 knockouts. He was a lineal champion that conquered legends like Larry Holmes. Meanwhile, at the time, Tyson was the youngest heavyweight champion ever, and was a wrecking ball with a 34-0 record with 30 knockouts. He was also a very humble WBA, WBC, and IBF title holder. Everyone was hankering to see this match of legends.
By the time the bell rang, Tyson charged into the ring like a bull and pulled off the impossible. Within 91 seconds, Spinks was down and out on the canvas. People were dumbfounded, and some were even annoyed. Like a cherry on the cake, the 91-second match would become the richest fight in boxing history, grossing an astounding $70 million, of which Tyson earned a record purse of around $22 million and Spinks won $13.5 million.
3. Lennox Lewis Asserts His Dominance In The Ring (2002)
On June 8, 2002, Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis faced off at the Pyramid Arena in Memphis. The fight was a significant heavyweight title match, with Lewis defending his WBC, IBF, IBO, and The Ring titles against Tyson. It would be Tyson’s final chance to reclaim the world title, and he was so hungry for it. In fact, the match had to be moved to Memphis after Tyson was denied a license in Nevada due to a press conference brawl between him and Lewis in NYC.
There was a thick cloud of tension in the air when the match began. In the opening round, Tyson’s left hook quickly found its mark, but Lewis countered with powerful combinations, one of which opened a cut above Tyson’s right eye. He then continued to seize control, raining devastating blows until the seventh round. In the eighth, a visibly tired Tyson hit the canvas, struggling to rise after a heavy right cross from Lewis. At some point in the match, the great Iron Mike Tyson retreated to the corners and screamed, “I’m in pain!” By the eighth round, Lewis’s dominance was clear. At the 2:25 mark, the referee called it, and Tyson was knocked out.
2. Mike Tyson’s First-Ever Loss Against Buster Douglas (1990)
On February 11, 1990, the Tokyo Dome bore witness to one of the most jaw-dropping occurrences in the boxing world. Mike Tyson, the five-year undefeated and undisputed heavyweight champion, stepped into the ring against James “Buster” Douglas. Specifically, Douglas was a 42:1 record holder who was an underdog, especially compared to Tyson. Although the odds were stacked against Douglas, fate had other plans.
Tyson, known for his ferocious power, was expected to dispatch Douglas swiftly, much like his portfolio showed. However, the fight unfolded differently. Tyson managed to knock Douglas out for 13 seconds in the eighth round, but that was not enough to stop his opponent. Standing at 6 ft 4, Douglas used his reach advantage to keep Tyson at bay. In the tenth round, against all odds, Douglas unleashed a combination that sent Tyson crashing to the canvas. The referee counted, and the impossible had happened: Tyson was knocked out.
1. The Infamous “Bite Fight” Against Evander Holyfield (1997)
Mike Tyson vs. Evander Holyfield II is a fight that remains etched in boxing history forever. The rematch took place on June 28, 1997, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Paradise, Nevada. Holyfield, the defending WBA Heavyweight Champion, had shocked Tyson seven months earlier with an 11th-round knockout. Importantly, this fight coincided with Tyson’s post-prison era, when he was quite emotionally strained. All this meant that the lead-up to the fight made it one of the most anticipated sporting events of the year.
When D-day came, Holyfield managed to dominate Tyson in the earlier rounds. Tyson, frustrated by a headbutt from Holyfield that caused a large cut under his right eye, aggressively sought to retaliate. And so, in the third round, right as the two grappled in the ring, Tyson bit off over an inch of Holyfield’s right ear and spat it out. The fight resumed, but it only lasted for a while because Tyson also bit Holyfield’s left ear.
Tyson was disqualified from the match and lost his boxing license, although it was later reinstated. An employee working at the MGM Arena picked up the detached ear, placed it on ice, and was transported to a hospital for reattachment. Holyfield and his trainer, Tim Hallmark, would later reveal that the detached ear was lost in the ambulance. As a result, Holyfield still wears the scars to this day, as the cartilage never grew back.
The “Bite Fight” has been one of the most referenced events in mainstream boxing history. It remains a defining trait of Mike Tyson’s public persona. For example, in 2022 Tyson’s company Tyson 2.0 launched “Mike Bites,” a line of marijuana-infused ear-shaped gummies…with part of the ear missing. However, without a doubt, it’s the most infamous boxing match in history.
Boosie Badazz is the Atlanta Hawks’ number one celebrity fan, as he’s always courtside for the NBA team’s games. During his most recent visit, he rocked a diamond-encrusted rose gold Jesus piece with some Cuban chains to match, which caught the attention of a particularly angered female fan. Moreover, the Baton Rouge rapper hit Instagram up on Wednesday (April 10) to speak on an interaction with a woman who wasn’t a fan of his jewelry. As expected, he took a pretty comical stance on the matter and injected his signature brand of unabashed and unfiltered personality in his recounting of events.
“Lady at the game asked me why did I do that to Jesus,” Boosie told the camera from his courtside seat. “She said, ‘Jesus is not going to like that.’ I told her I’m showing everybody to give them the glory. She said, ‘I don’t think Jesus is going to like that.’ I differ! I’m going to wear my Bible piece next time, see what you’re going to say.” Given his recent defense of R. Kelly, this definitely ended up being one of the more innocuous and light headlines to pop up surrounding him.
Speaking of Boosie’s relationship with basketball, he recently apologized for racially charged comments against LSU player Hailey Van Lith. “Our white girl was scared to death of [Caitlin] Clark,” he had expressed about her. “Why was she guarding her in the first place? We gotta do some serious recruiting next year.” “Hey, I want to apologize to Hailey Van Lith,” the 41-year-old expressed with regret after backlash to this statement. “That’s my bad. I got in my feelings, I really wanted y’all to win, man. I apologize to you and to LSUI mean, that’s all I can say, I got in my feelings. Really wanted y’all to beat Iowa.”
Meanwhile, despite this Jesus piece incident, he’s by no means shy about clowning someone else for the optics of their choices, such as when he caught his son thirsting over Latto. We can surely expect at least one more notable antic or development before the NBA season wraps up for the Hawks. In fact, we can only dream of what could go down next season.

Diddy is in a very difficult position right now, albeit one that’s unconfirmed as far as how accountable and responsible he is for it. Moreover, whenever one lawsuit drops, another seems to emerge in its place, which is exactly what happened this month. Readers may remember a wrongful termination lawsuit against him from a former nanny, which at one point was among his big legal challenges before explosive sexual assault and sex trafficking allegations emerged against him. But Raven Wales-Warden dismissed her complaint with prejudice, which bars a potential refiling, on April 2 according to MyNewsLA, and it’s unclear if it was due to a settlement or not at press time.
However, Diddy also received a $200K lawsuit on Tuesday (April 9) from an artist who claims he never paid him for a scrapped art project amid his other accusations regarding sex-related crimes. According to court documents reportedly obtained by HipHopDX, the Southern District of New York got a complaint filing from Raven Production Management Group, LLC. The plaintiff’s story goes that Phantom Labs and Matthew Lupton commissioned him for a sculpture for an even Sean Combs was organizing for August of 2023. While he signed a contract and promised funding the very next day, the plaintiff claims, he was never paid for this work.
Furthermore, the plaintiff specifically alleges that he spent an additional $20,000 in project costs, and by the time the initiative fell in limbo due to the event’s postponement, the costs totaled up to $97,000. The artist wants Diddy to cough up “damages to Raven in an amount to be determined at trial, but no less than $200,000 for breach of contract [and] no less than $96,732.00 for fraudulent inducement.” In addition, the plaintiff seeks other damages. These include “for tortious interference with contract and business relations, deceptive trade practices, unjust enrichment, and quantum meruit.”
Meanwhile, this news breaks as the entertainment world continues to react to the Bad Boy mogul’s legal battles. Do you think that this uphill climb will get any easier, or is this far from the end? However you may feel, let us know down in the comments section down below. Also, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and more updates on Diddy.
50 Cent just hit the stage during Dreamville Fest in North Carolina, and he brought the same Instagram troll energy that he’s been relentless with ever since the Diddy allegations kicked into high gear. “I love you, my brother -– no P. Diddy,” he said to the crowd, who responded with exclamations, some laughs, and an overall befuddled tone. “I love you… even if you’re a sex worker.” Of course, the G-Unit mogul didn’t really surprise anyone with this jab, as it’s pretty much all he’s been doing on the ‘Gram as of late. Still, to see it at a large scale is pretty wild, and it goes to show that his spirit isn’t merely contained by social media.
That being said, 50 Cent has some allegations of sexual assault of his own to address (which he’s denied) from Daphne Joy, his child’s mother who Diddy stands accused of hiring as a sex worker in Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones’ $30 million lawsuit against him. On this matter, he’s standing by his claim of innocence. Regardless, it seems like everyone that even slightly involves themselves in this situation suddenly has a target on their back for either Sean Combs’ defenders or his detractors. But Fif’s never been one to put out a fire quietly, and we’re sure he’ll continue to douse some gasoline on the discussion.
50 Cent aside, the most recent development in the Diddy situation involves another of his alleged sex workers, model Jane Ramey, denying this status. “Yes, I dated someone,” she shared, reportedly via her publicist. “Dating someone doesn’t directly correlate to any of the false allegations made. How unfortunate we’ve entered a time where caring for someone or falling in love is worthy of scrutiny in the court of public opinion. What may be amusing for you is real life for others, and my feelings have never been for entertainment, nor are they up for discussion. We need to be more conscious as a society when ridiculing people’s lives and relationships merely for enjoyment. I appreciate everyone’s kind messages and support during this time.”
Meanwhile, what do you think about this jab? Where does it land among the Queens mogul’s other trolls against Puff Daddy? However you may feel, drop your thoughts down in the comments section below. Also, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and more updates on 50 Cent and Diddy.
Rodney Jones, also known as Lil Rod, launched a staggering $30 million lawsuit against Diddy for sexual assault and sex trafficking claims with the help of lawyer Tyrone Blackburn. However, it seems like they may be in for more trouble than they thought. Moreover, Judge Denise Cote referred Blackburn to the Southern District of New York’s Grievances Committee on Wednesday (April 3), according to court documents obtained by AllHipHop. In them, he’s accused of “disturbing” past litigation, including deliberately salacious lawsuits in Federal Court. Judge Cote believes there’s a pattern in the attorney’s behavior that demonstrates he files cases to leverage the Federal Court process in his favor.
Specifically, Judge Cote accused Diddy’s accuser’s lawyer of purposefully attracting media attention to his cases, defaming defendants with unfounded and scandalous claims, and wriggling a rapid settlement out of them. Similar and recent accusations also emerged against lawyers Liane Fisher and Michael J. Taubenfeldckburn. In addition, she alleged that Blackburn did not properly file cases in their appropriate districts and brought up five instances of his continued action despite this lack of due diligence. Apparently, his case did not fall within Rule 11 obligations (which ensures that accusations are well-founded), something the Court is now very troubled with.

“A reasonable inference from Blackburn’s pattern of behavior is that he improperly files cases in federal court to garner media attention, embarrass defendants with salacious allegations, and pressure defendants to settle quickly,” Judge Cote wrote of Diddy’s prosecutor. “Regardless of Blackburn’s intentions, his actions in this and prior cases indicate a repeated failure to meet his Rule 11 obligations.” UMG CEO Sir Lucian Grainge also reportedly considered to sanction Blackburn for Rule 11 violations, and he’s a defendant in the Sean Combs lawsuit. Depending on what the Grievance Committee concludes, this judicial admonishment could impact other high-profile cases of his.
For example, Blackburn also sued Nicki Minaj, Kenneth Petty, T.I., Tiny, and more. As such, this could have pretty hefty consequences for his legal career. Nevertheless, the claims against (or for) the Bad Boy executive remain officially uncharged, unconfirmed, but nonetheless rightfully scrutinized under law enforcement.
