In the most recent episode of Collect Call with Suge Knight hosted by his son Legend Knight, the former Death Row CEO claims that it has always been well known, specifically within the Hip Hop industry and his own crew, that Diddy was a known government informant.

“It’s a lot of things that people been knowing, and everybody gets judged differently,” he said at the 12:15 mark of the interview. “It shouldn’t be a grey area when it comes to doing something right, doing something positive, or doing something for the community. That being said, naturally, Puffy been an FBI informant forever, as they would say. That’s why it’s different when it comes to him.”

Suge goes on, “Regardless of who gets hurt, all everybody been saying is ‘Puffy, Puffy, Puffy.’ I think they shouldn’t all blame everything on Puffy. His exes in the industry knew about it. Everybody in his crew knew about it. The bitches he dates knew about it. Everybody knew about it. So don’t push away from it now.”

Suge also adds on in other parts of the interview to why he feels like outsiders are taking advantage of all the West Coast’s resources and wants to see the West become more united. He shouts Kendrick Lamar and DJ Mustard along with some of the artists he feels are representing well. Suge moves on to talk about the case that has him currently serving 28 years in prison. He provides new insights into why he took the deal he did and lets us know he’s got a new lawyer working to help him get back home soon.

by

Suge Knight has already made plenty of wild allegations on his prison podcast, Collect Call With Suge Knight, and his latest episode is certainly no exception. Unsurprisingly, the subject of Diddy came up at one point in the podcast. This prompted the former Death Row CEO to make even more shocking claims about the mogul. He accused Diddy of having been an FBI informant for years, even alleging that it’s a commonly known fact within the industry.

“It’s a lot of things that people been knowing, and everybody gets judged differently,” he explained. “It shouldn’t be a grey area when it comes to doing something right, doing something positive, or doing something for the community. That being said, naturally, Puffy been an FBI informant forever, as they would say. That’s why it’s different when it comes to him.”

“Regardless of who gets hurt, all everybody been saying is ‘Puffy, Puffy, Puffy.’ I think they shouldn’t all blame everything on Puffy,” he continued. “His exes in the industry knew about it. Everybody in his crew knew about it. The b*tches he dates knew about it. Everybody knew about it. So don’t push away from it now.” Despite the various allegations Diddy’s been hit with in recent months, and the mogul allegedly being an FBI informant, Knight continues to support him.

In TMZ‘s documentary about the Bad Boy Records founder, The Downfall of Diddy, Knight explained how his reaction to the sexual assault allegations was different than most people’s. “My reaction was actually different because the first thing that came to my mind was: he has his sons, he has his daughters,” he said. “My reaction was first about the kids. The thing is, I feel it’s a bad day for Hip Hop. It’s a bad day for the culture because it makes us all look bad.” What do you think of Suge Knight accusing Diddy of having been an FBI informant for years?

A report from the Chicago Sun-Times has revealed that a well known YouTuber was paid fifteen times, totaling $25,000 for cooperating in FBG Duck’s murder case.

“Trenches News” creator Martell Wiley’s participation in the case was revealed by FBI Special Agent Kevin Doyle, who said, “He would provide background information. He reviewed surveillance footage [and] reviewed social media postings.” 

Wiley, who was affiliated with Duck’s crew as well as the Gangster Disciples, commented on the news after his cooperation with the feds was made public, saying, “They subpoenaed me to court. I’ve gotta come here and tell them, man. It ain’t no more discrepancies. I’m here. Long live [FBG Duck, aka] Carlton.” Defense attorneys also claim that Wiley was used by the feds twice over a decade ago while he was a resident of Chicago’s O’Block.

TheSource.com will update the details to this story as they develop.

Pras Doesn’t Want To Be Compared To 6ix9ine

by

The Pras conspiracy case is surely one of the wildest hip-hop stories of the year so far. Moreover, following his guilty verdict, he continued to deny the assumption that he was an FBI informant. In fact, he recently said such statements in person to TMZ, who caught up with him on the street and asked him about the situation. For those unaware, the Fugees rapper allegedly embezzled millions in cahoots with a Malaysian businessman and participated in a host of fraudulent and witness tampering schemes. However, he maintained his innocence and that he acted in good faith and in the United States’ best interests.

“I can’t really talk about the verdict, I got a lot more work to get done,” Pras remarked in Los Angeles. “Look, I was never in the past, present, or future an FBI or a CIA informant. Never ever. If people want to check it out, look at the testimonies. They could see that all within the records, and all the DC courts.” During his remarks, he even dismissed comparisons to one of rap’s most notorious snitches in recent memory.

Pras & 6ix9ine Are Not Alike

“This is not a Tekashi 6ix9ine situation, respectfully,” he continued. “Because he admitted he was an informant, basically. So I was never. I never said I was. I am not now and never will be an FBI or a CIA informant.” Furthermore, Pras’ publicist also denied these claims. “Pras was never an FBI informant. It’s not accurate and, quite frankly, it’s dangerous,” Erica Dumas told AllHipHop. “If he was an informant, he would not be on trial. The government does not prosecute and threaten its informants with more than two decades of jail time.” Regardless, many still clowned him online, whether it was figures in the genre or regular people.

Still, there’s one legendary MC who stood up for the “Zealots” rhymer: Chuck D. “Pras was a valedictorian in HighSchool or in the final runnings,” he tweeted. “They NEVER mention THAT. Instead USA propAgenda machine ALWAYS promotes this backwoods Jed ass Clampett tale of Hood gangstaS, which NEVER been a threat ANYWHERE other than Blackfolk. Wrong is wrong but this SMELLS.” Let us know what you think of this in the comments and return to HNHH for the latest on Pras.

Pras Denies Being FBI Informant, Chuck D Defends Him

by

The conspiracy case of Pras, which recently resulted in a guilty verdict, is one of the wildest stories of the year so far. However, some figures in the rap game and beyond are sticking up for the Fugees MC and calling out wider systemic issues. Chuck D recently took to Twitter to stand up for his past accomplishments as he maintains his complete innocence despite the verdict. “Pras was never an FBI informant,” his publicist Erica Dumas told AllHipHop on Thursday (April 27). “It’s not accurate and, quite frankly, it’s dangerous. If he was an informant, he would not be on trial. The government does not prosecute and threaten its informants with more than two decades of jail time.”

After news spread like wildfire labeling the 50-year-old as an FBI informant, the Public Enemy legend pointed out some inconsistencies in reporting. “Pras was a valedictorian in HighSchool or in the final runnings,” he tweeted. “They NEVER mention THAT. Instead USA propAgenda machine ALWAYS promotes this backwoods Jed ass Clampett tale of Hood gangstaS, which NEVER been a threat ANYWHERE other than Blackfolk. Wrong is wrong but this SMELLS.

Chuck D Defends Pras

“The narrative is calling him everything in the book and never mentioning it. That’s it,” Chuck D added in a later tweet. “But the deeper you go into any of this Russell you discover a fraternity ALL pssing in the same urinal holding each others johnson.” Along that same line, Pras’ attorney David Kenner told reporters that the conspiracy trial’s outcome was a let-down. “We are extremely disappointed in that result but are very, very confident in the ultimate outcome of this case,” he stated. “If we do move to a sentencing hearing I remain very confident we will certainly appeal this case. This is not over.”

Meanwhile, other rap legends haven’t taken as kindly to this news. For example, 50 Cent roasted the “Zealots” rapper online for being a snitch. While the term “FBI informant” is admittedly misleading, he did confess to collaborating with the agency. As such, it seems like this case’s verdict won’t make it any less murky. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Pras and Chuck D.
