King Combs Catches Flack For Lewd Pictures Of His Girlfriend Amid Diddy Scandal

July 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Christian “King” Combs and his girlfriend Raven Tracy recently celebrated her birthday at the “Invisible House,” and the pictures they shared from their outing caused a bit of a stir online. Moreover, he included pictures of him picturing her body in a lewd pose, particularly around the back, and embracing her sensually on some furniture. If it was anyone other than King, then these snapshots probably wouldn’t cause much of an uproar at all. But considering the scandal of sex-related allegations that his father Diddy is facing right now, many felt that this was a little too close for comfort.

Check out the comments of the Instagram post below to see some of the debate around this, but a lot of people think that comparing King Combs to Diddy is a big reach. After all, Tracy’s brand is literally called “Body,” and there’s nothing suggesting that there’s actually any sort of connection or implication here. Rather, some folks just expressed their discomfort with seeing a post like this with the heavy context that’s impossible to remove from it. Still, this just seems like a case of social media users being unable to separate between their content feeds and jumping up at anything Bad Boy-related.

Sadly, a more grounded and real consequence of this for King Combs is that he can’t do anything without bringing up his dad’s accusations. For example, he posted a Father’s Day tribute for Diddy with the following message: “HAPPY FATHERS DAY TO THE GREATEST!! Love you pops!” Of course, the comments section flooded with folks bringing up all the lawsuits and making light of this situation. But anyone with family knows that love is a complicated feeling.

Meanwhile, speaking of the Combs family’s social media activity, it looks like Diddy might just return to Instagram, as he recently posted a video of him boarding a private jet. For those unaware, he had previously wiped his entire account, including his apology to Cassie after the video of him assaulting her surfaced. This also became a point of heavy controversy, and we have no idea whether he plans to post more. Yet we’re sure that it’s impossible to avoid online attacks, so the whole family needs extreme caution.

Diddy Returns To Instagram & Boards A Private Jet After Wiping His Account Amid Allegations

July 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

After deleting all the posts from his account, it seems like Diddy is starting fresh with his Instagram page amid his many accusations and lawsuits. Moreover, his first IG Story post after this wipe is a video of him boarding a private jet for Combs Air, and we have no idea where he’s flying from or where he’s flying to. Still, we have to imagine that Sean Combs is moving pretty carefully and deliberately these days, as he’s got a rocky public image to reckon with. Every sighting comes with its own angle, every statement comes with a lot of scrutiny, and every denial falls on more and more skeptical ears after the release of his Cassie assault video.

However, all the other allegations against Diddy remain just that: allegations that he and his legal team expressed confidence in being debunked by a court of law. Still, a new sex trafficking lawsuit against him from Adria English doesn’t make the narrative and the optics any easier to handle. Perhaps the Bad Boy mogul will continue to post on his Instagram account after his previous wipe, or this will be a rare one-and-done Story. Either way, folks will likely continue to find more ways to update themselves on his situation and his movement.

Diddy Returns To Instagram

In addition, Diddy might face much larger issues in his path in the near future… at least, if new reports on a New York federal grand jury emerged with any shred of accuracy. Apparently, they opened a criminal investigation into him recently, a decision that authorities notified him and his legal team of. As such, we expect that camp to be partially aware of what’s going on, although they obviously don’t have all the details. Maybe a future statement or response of some kind will illuminate this situation with law enforcement.

Meanwhile, as Diddy tries to sell his $70 million mansion in Los Angeles, we begin to see what the future might hold for him. It will be a lot reallocation, a lot of divestment, and a huge overhaul of his assets, lifestyle, and place in pop culture. Whether or not he comes out on the other side of this in the clear, it’s hard to imagine how the world will react. Perhaps this Instagram return says more than we think…

Diddy Accused Of Asking Latest Accuser’s Ex-Partner For Sex In New Tasha K Interview

July 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The latest lawsuit against Diddy, in which Adria English claims that he subjected her to forced sex trafficking, now has a Tasha K interview to allegedly go a little more in-depth about. Moreover, English elaborates on her accusation that the Bad Boy mogul tried to force her ex-boyfriend, a model, to give him oral sex during an audition. In addition, she elaborates on how he allegedly still hired her then-partner because she had agreed to work at his “White parties,” then in the Hamptons and most recently in Miami. It’s important to note that these are all just allegations at press time, and that Sean Combs’ team has denied any and all wrongdoing apart from his Cassie assault video.

“No matter how many lawsuits are filed, it won’t change the fact that Mr. Combs has never sexually assaulted or sex trafficked anyone,” Diddy’s attorney Jonathan Davis shared in a statement. “We live in a world where anyone can file a lawsuit for any reason and without any proof. Fortunately, a fair and impartial judicial process exists to find the truth and Mr. Combs is confident he will prevail against these and other baseless claims in court.”

Furthermore, this news emerged right alongside recent reports that suggest a criminal investigation from a federal grand jury opened in New York concerning Diddy. Per NBC News, authorities notified him and his legal team of this move, but it doesn’t indicate whether a possible indictment will arrive sooner rather than later. As such, we don’t really know what will come of this latest lawsuit or if it will connect in any significant way to the larger case against Puff Daddy. Still, it certainly doesn’t make the optics any more easy to stomach.

Meanwhile, news also broke recently of Diddy selling his $70 million Los Angeles mansion, suggesting that he made some major moves in his personal life and finances. He remains mostly in the dark throughout all of this accountability-seeking accusatory process, and stands by his alleged innocence. There are far too many moving pieces now, and a court will have to determine fault here once and for all. The question is how much longer will the world have to wait for this saga to begin its conclusion.

Diddy Sued For Sex Trafficking By Ex-Adult Entertainer: What We Know

July 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In a shocking and disturbing lawsuit, music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs faces allegations of sex trafficking and coercion by former adult entertainer Adria English, known by her stage name Omunique, TMZ reports. English’s claims, spanning from alleged grooming to forced sexual encounters, have sent ripples through the entertainment industry. The lawsuit also implicates several other individuals, including Jacob “the Jeweler” Arabov and Tamiko Thomas. Here is a detailed breakdown of the allegations and the lawsuit.

Initial Encounter With Diddy

Adria English alleges that she first met Diddy around 2004 when her boyfriend was auditioning for a modeling job with Diddy’s Sean John fashion line. According to the lawsuit, things took a dark turn almost immediately. English claims that Diddy asked her boyfriend and another model to perform oral sex on him to secure the job. Though her boyfriend refused, he was later offered the job on the condition that Adria work as a “go-go dancer” at Diddy’s famous white party in the Hamptons.

Participation In Diddy’s Parties

English agreed to work at Diddy’s party during Labor Day weekend in 2004, and photos included in the lawsuit show her presence there. She claims that she subsequently worked at multiple Diddy-hosted events, where she was often encouraged to consume alcohol laced with narcotics like ecstasy and flirt with guests. Initially, she did not engage in sexual activities with the guests, but English alleges that Diddy groomed her over time to become involved in sex trafficking.

Allegations Of Forced Sexual Encounters

The lawsuit details a particularly harrowing incident involving Jacob Arabov, known as “Jacob the Jeweler,” the owner of Jacob & Co. English claims that Diddy coerced her into having forced sexual intercourse with Arabov during one of his parties. After the alleged assault, Diddy reportedly paid her an additional $1,000 beyond her usual compensation. English states that Diddy personally congratulated her for complying with his demands, reinforcing the coercive environment she describes.

Following the incident with Jacob Arabov, English alleges that the situation worsened. She claims she was “passed off” to other guests at Diddy’s parties, leading to repeated sexual assaults. The lawsuit also names Tamiko Thomas, accusing her of facilitating Diddy’s sex trafficking operation, comparing her role to that of Ghislaine Maxwell in Jeffrey Epstein’s notorious trafficking network. English asserts that Thomas played a crucial part in her exploitation.

Broken Promises & Threats

In addition to the physical and emotional abuse, English alleges that Diddy made empty promises to advance her career. She claims he offered to help her join a girl group and enter the music industry, but these promises were accompanied by threats to blackball her and her boyfriend from the industry if they did not comply with his demands. English eventually managed to escape and return to California in 2009, but she believes Diddy retaliated by blackballing her and her boyfriend, hindering their careers.

Adria English’s lawsuit highlights the severe emotional trauma she has endured due to the alleged sex trafficking. She cites intimacy issues and painful memories as ongoing consequences of the abuse. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages and names several defendants, including Diddy, Bad Boy Entertainment, Tamiko Thomas, and Jacob the Jeweler.

Conclusion

As these allegations come to light, they underscore the need for accountability and justice within the entertainment industry. The accusations against Diddy and his associates are serious and demand thorough investigation. The outcome of this lawsuit will be closely watched, as it could have significant implications for the individuals involved and the broader fight against exploitation and abuse in celebrity circles.

Diddy Reportedly Facing Criminal Investigation In New York From Federal Grand Jury

July 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It looks like the Diddy scandal is about to get a whole lot scarier for the Bad Boy mogul, as a federal indictment could reportedly be closing in. Moreover, two sources allegedly confirmed to NBC News that a federal grand jury in the Southern District of New York is officially involved in a criminal investigation into him and hearing evidence on the matter. While the specific goal, motive, and considerations behind this probe remain a mystery at press time, authorities notified Sean Combs and his legal team of this development last week. Per NBC, this still doesn’t indicate whether or not an indictment will arrive soon.

Furthermore, there’s still a possibility that this criminal investigation doesn’t complete the case, and we might have to wait longer to see what becomes of Diddy in the legal system. This probe is taking place three months after federal raids on his Miami and L.A. properties on multiple accusations and lawsuits alleging sexual assault, abuse, and sex trafficking. The latest of these suits comes from Adria English, who claims Puff Daddy groomed her into sex trafficking work after 2004. She also claimed that he tried to coerce her then-partner into oral sex, included Tamiko Thomas as a defendant for allegedly organizing the sex trafficking ring, and other abhorrent allegations.

Diddy Reportedly Subject To Criminal Investigation

— NBC News (@NBCNews) July 3, 2024

With this whirlwind in mind, it’s no surprise that Diddy recently put his $70 million Los Angeles mansion up for sale recently. The actual details around a potential indictment are still a mystery, and it could still take longer to manifest. Maybe the court chose to gather as much evidence as possible and see how the fallout from other developments changes things. Either way, he’s got a lot to handle.

Meanwhile, Diddy recently went white water rafting in Wyoming, so at least he’s taking his mind off things… or trying to, anyway. We can’t imagine how difficult this scandal must be for the Combs family, regardless of the truth of these allegations. But it’s much more important to get to the bottom of them for the sake of countless other affected families, and it seems like we’re getting closer to that. All that’s left is to wait and see.

Roger Bonds Affirms That He Would Testify Against Diddy If The Court Summons Him

July 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy’s situation seemingly grows worse by the day, and new remarks from Roger Bonds indicate that he could contribute to his process of accountability if his accused crimes of sexual assault, abuse, and sex trafficking are all true. Moreover, Sean Combs’ former bodyguard spoke to DJ Vlad on VladTV about how he would testify against the Bad Boy mogul if the court subpoenas him. Vlad clarified that cooperation isn’t mandatory, but Bonds feels morally obliged to stand up against injustice and in defense of the women that his former employer has allegedly and, in the case of Cassie, definitely mistreated.

Furthermore, Roger Bonds expressed that he doesn’t care about folks calling him a “snitch” because his priorities now favor his family’s well-being and that of others instead of street codes. Vlad gave him his due respect for his efforts and principles, and he emphasized the crucial need to promote change against abhorrent and criminal behaviors and systems. In addition, Bonds had previously spoken about reaching out to one of Kim Porter’s friends about Diddy after her death. While he has his doubts, he believes that Combs truly loved her despite his alleged conflicts with her in their relationship.

Roger Bonds On Testifying Against Diddy

Meanwhile, this promise from Roger Bonds comes as Diddy tries to distract himself from everything that’s going on. Photographers recently spotted him white water rafting in Wyoming with some friends, and it became one of the few public sightings he faced since this whole scandal blew up. As such, we don’t really know that much about the situation or about what this movement looks like amid various accusations and lawsuits. But one thing’s for sure: each and every pop-out brings us one step closer to seeing how this will all end.

Elsewhere, the Combs family is trying to move on with their lives as well, with his twin daughters attending the BET Experience show. It’s definitely been a difficult process to undergo, especially under so much media scrutiny and theorizing. Maybe one day, there will be a legacy for them that goes beyond the works and alleged crimes of its patriarch. But not today.

Diddy Relieves Stress From Allegations & Lawsuits With White Water Rafting Trip In Wyoming

July 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Combs family is trying to best to move on with their public lives amid their patriarch Diddy’s various accusations and lawsuits of sexual assault, abuse, and sex trafficking. What’s more is that no one is more subject to this attempt than the Bad Boy mogul himself, who’s mostly been all but a ghost over the last eight months or so. Moreover, he has responded publicly to these claims with firm denial, but things became complicated when video evidence released of him abusing his former partner Cassie. This recording represented just one isolated incident, but it stacks up against many other allegations that look all the worse because of it.

Furthermore, photographers recently spotted Diddy at a white water rafting excursion with some friends and a guide in Jackson Hole, Wyoming over the weekend. With the “Via” link further down below, you can see some videos and pictures of the outing obtained by TMZ, though that’s pretty much all we got as far as updates and information. It seems like it will be quite difficult for him to do anything without public scrutiny and constant attention now. Not only that, but some celebrities allegedly turned on the music executive recently due to these criminal accusations, although the latest example of this seemingly doesn’t hold true.

Diddy At Invest Fest 2023

For those unaware, reports emerged over the weekend that Lady Gaga threatened to cut ties with a law firm if they didn’t drop Diddy. However, a spokesperson for New York City’s Grubman, Shire, Meiselas & Sacks said that this was not the case at all. “[We took] the decision to part ways with Mr. Combs proactively [as] partners in the firm a number of months ago as [we] felt it was the right thing to do,” they explained. “The report that the decision was the result of client pressure just isn’t true.”

Meanwhile, this vacation happened as other public institutions and groups condemn Diddy for his alleged and confirmed actions. The city of Miami canceled its day dedicated to him, and many pop culture figures are making light of his reckoning. It’s a very difficult situation, but hopefully one that results in justice, accountability, and healing moving forward. We’ll see what else the Combs does these days as Puff’s future hangs in the balance.

Diddy Allegedly Dropped By Law Firm At Their Client Lady Gaga’s Request

June 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

A new unconfirmed report from News Nation suggests that the powerful New York City law firm Grubman, Shire, Meiselas & Sacks just dropped one of their clients: Diddy. Moreover, the firm reportedly represents many music industry titans, and if this report is true, likely cut ties with him due to his various accusations and lawsuits concerning sexual assault, abuse, and sex trafficking. However, apparently this decision manifested at the request of another one of GSM&S’ clients, Lady Gaga. “Lady Gaga said she was leaving [the firm] if they didn’t drop Diddy. And she’s too big to lose,” an alleged insider told the publication.

Furthermore, this comes amid other news that the city of Miami has canceled its “Diddy Day.” Back to this specific case, Sean Combs allegedly knows Allen Grubman and was with GSM&S for over two decades. The firm reportedly involved itself in various successful stadium runs and catalog sales over the years with massive industry players like The Weeknd, Lil Nas X, and more. At press time, neither the Bad Boy mogul’s team nor representatives from the firm have publicly responded to these claims.

While Diddy wiped much of his online presence amid all this, folks like Stephen A. Smith and many others took issue with him deleting his prompt, albeit still criticized, apology to Cassie for abusing her. “If you had a million photos and you decided to delete 999,999 of them, that’s the one you should’ve kept up,” he began his remarks on the June 25 episode of his podcast. If you’re sincere. You got 20 million followers on Instagram. Why did you delete that video of the apology?

“Don’t you want people to know that you were contrite?” Smith continued about Diddy. “By deleting the video, you throw all of that out the window. The possibility of the very few people who would ever believe that. Who are your PR people? Who are these people? Where is the advice? I’d have said, ‘Never delete your account and never delete that video.’ Leave that up forever. Because that was you apologizing. And owning up to your transgression. You deleting it from your account… that wasn’t smart. It comes across as you wanting to erase everything as opposed to you wanting to be accountable for everything.”

DJ Akademiks & Vlad Believe Diddy Is About To Get Indicted

June 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy is someone who has been hit with quite a bit of legal trouble over the last year or so. Overall, it all started with a lawsuit from his ex Cassie, who accused him of sexual assault and sex trafficking. Subsequently, the music mogul was hit with other similar lawsuits and allegations. Moreover, the video of Diddy abusing Cassie in a hotel hallway has ultimately left many in a state of shock. Moving forward, there is lots of speculation as to what will happen to the mogul.

As it stands, a grand jury has been formed in the state of New York. This means the state can present evidence and a jury will decide whether or not there is enough there for an indictment. In a recent interview with DJ Akademiks, DJ Vlad came out and said that he is 99 percent sure an indictment is coming. Akademiks echoed that sentiment, noting that Diddy recently deleted everything off of his Instagram page. In their minds, this is simply a way to get ready for what’s coming.

Diddy Now Subject Of Grand Jury

Overall, it should be noted that this is simply speculation. No one knows for sure what is about to happen. However, Vlad did say that if he were Diddy, he would be fleeing the country right now. Considering Diddy’s age, Vlad thinks that may just be the best course of action right now. Only time will tell what is going to happen next. At this time, Diddy has denied the allegations against him, and appears confident that his name will be cleared.

Let us know what you think of this take from Vlad and DJ Akademiks, in the comments section down below. Do you agree that Diddy could be subjected to an indictment soon? Do you believe there is any way for Puff to get back in people’s good graces? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists and their upcoming projects.

Roger Bonds Thinks Diddy & Cassie Assault Video Proves The Truth Behind All Their Stories

June 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Roger Bonds’ recent interview with DJ Vlad on VladTV continues to provide some interesting claims and insights into the Diddy situation. Moreover, the Bad Boy mogul’s former bodyguard told Vlad of how he perceived the reaction to the video of Sean Combs assaulting Cassie in a hotel hallway. Bonds told the story of how Puffy was intoxicated in this incident, and how many folks initially expressed skepticism at abuse claims that he and Cassie brought forth against Puff Daddy. However, Bonds also revealed how the release of the video also made him feel slightly vindicated, as the narrative they painted around their former colleague could no longer be denied, at least in part.

Of course, Diddy’s multiple other lawsuits and accusations of sexual assault, abuse, and sex trafficking aren’t all immediately proven by a single video. What the clip did show us is that at least this specific incident occurred, regardless of how it paints other accusations. It’s still very much a gray area, since there hasn’t been a lot of explicit legal development when it comes to the search for accountability. Hopefully this changes soon with more details and investigations that get further to the truth behind all these accusations.

Roger Bonds On Diddy & Cassie Video Validating Testimonies

Still, recent changes and actions suggest that Diddy will take a public backseat for a while. For example, he and his team recently wiped his Instagram account’s posts completely, one of which was a video apology to Cassie after this video leaked. The music executive and businessman’s team relayed that he still stands by the apology despite taking it down. They also denied the idea that he took his posts down for any particular reason.

Meanwhile, others spent their time recently thinking of ways in which Diddy could escape this public scrutiny, including Michael Blackson. “There’s probably three ways [for him] coming back to life,” he suggested. “Probably the Nation Of Islam. Number one, probably, right? You know, go out there, go talk to [Louis] Farrakhan, join the team. I mean put him on the street [to] sell bean pies, like they did back in [the] 90s. Two, just join the LGBTQIE [sic]. I’m not sure if I missed any letters or not. Join them […] Turn into a pastor [or] something; turn into a Ma$e. Y’know, become a pastor, or just pack this s**t and go to some village somewhere and change your name.”
