Diddy Issues Formal Apology For Alleged Cassie Assault As Footage Goes Viral: Watch

May 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

On Friday, CNN exclusively obtained some graphic footage of Diddy and his ex-girlfriend Cassie at a hotel in 2016. In the disturbing footage, the Bad Boy Records founder appears to chase the singer through a hallway, pulling her to the ground and kicking her before attempting to drag her back to his room. The footage has since gone viral, with countless social media users and peers expressing outrage over the alleged assault.

Now, Diddy has issued a formal response on Instagram. In a clip, he apologizes for his actions, claiming to have since gotten professional help. “It’s so difficult to reflect on the darkest times in your life, but sometimes you got to do that,” he begins. “I was f*cked up — I hit rock bottom — but I make no excuses. My behavior on that video is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video. I was disgusted then when I did it. I’m disgusted now. 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. But I’m committed to be a better man each and every day. I’m not asking for forgiveness. I’m truly sorry.”

Cassie has yet to respond directly to the now-viral footage, though her lawyer Douglas H. Wigdor released a statement the day it was released. “The gut-wrenching video has only further confirmed the disturbing and predatory behavior of Mr. Combs,” he said via email. “Words cannot express the courage and fortitude that Ms. Ventura has shown in coming forward to bring this to light.”

50 Cent Thinks Diddy’s Alleged Secret Tapes Have Scared His Peers Into Silence

May 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

On Friday, CNN exclusively obtained some disturbing 2016 footage of Diddy allegedly assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie at a hotel. The footage appears to corroborate some of the accusations the singer made against Diddy in her 2023 lawsuit, which was settled almost immediately after she filed. Since it came out, the footage has been making its rounds online, with countless social media users and peers weighing in.

One of Diddy’s most vocal critics, 50 Cent, was quick to react. Shortly after the video was released, he took to Instagram, mocking the Bad Boy Records founder for maintaining his innocence amid the various lawsuits waged against him in recent months. While it may seem as though Diddy’s situation couldn’t get any worse right now, he was hit with even more allegations yesterday. Male producer Prince accuses the mogul of trying to “blackball” him from the industry because he refused his sexual advances. Of course, 50 Cent had a few things to say about that too.

In response to Prince’s upsetting allegations, 50 Cent shared them on Instagram. He also provided followers with a theory as to why more of Diddy’s celebrity peers aren’t speaking up. According to him, it may be because they’re just as guilty. “I don’t know, this is so bad ,” he wrote. “A lot of people aren’t saying anything because they are in them tapes.”

For those who don’t recall, Diddy was speculated to have had various tapes confiscated from his mansions when Homeland Security raided them in March. In his lawsuit, Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones alleged that they feature “other celebrities, music label executives, politicians and athletes.” What do you think of 50 Cent’s reaction to Prince’s new allegations against Diddy? Do you agree with him or not? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Diddy Has A Tape Of Woman Being Murdered, Jaguar Wright Alleges In Resurfaced Interview

May 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Today, Diddy has been making headlines after CNN exclusively obtained hotel security footage that allegedly shows him physically assaulting his ex, Cassie. It appears to corroborate some of the accusations Cassie made against the Bad Boy Records founder in her now-settled lawsuit against him. The disturbing footage is now circulating online, with countless social media users and peers weighing in. Of course, this latest development has also led to the resurfacing of some previous unrelated allegations against Diddy, including one made by Jaguar Wright during her interview with RealLyfe Productions last month.

During the interview, Wright was asked what she believes will “happen next,” to which she replied “Cathy White’s true killer is going to be unveiled… And it’s not a man.” From there, she was asked to elaborate, and she accused Diddy of having a tape of the alleged crime. “Show them the tape Diddy, you’ve got it,” she stated. “That might buy you a little time… We’re gonna hang you high, b*tch. Jay-Z too, Beyonce too.”

For those who don’t know, Cathy White was alleged to be Jay-Z’s mistress before passing away in 2011. Their rumored romance and her subsequent death led to countless conspiracy theories, which are all completely unconfirmed. Nonetheless, it looks like social media sleuths have been hard at work digging them up.

This isn’t the only shocking claim Jaguar Wright made during the interview, however. She also reflected on her relationship with Katt Williams, revealing that they met at her 30th birthday celebration. “He taught me so much in nine months,” she said of the comedian. “Walking away was hard, but it was when the Illuminati first started coming after him, and I left. You know, back in that moment, Katt was still wearing Kevlar to bed… To bed.” What do you think of Jaguar Wright’s wild claims about Diddy?

Diddy Appears To Assault Cassie In 2016 Footage: What We Know

May 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In a startling revelation, CNN has obtained a 2016 surveillance video showing Sean “Diddy” Combs engaging in a violent altercation with his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. The footage, which aligns with allegations Ventura made in a federal lawsuit that was settled last November, reveals a series of abusive actions by Combs at the InterContinental Hotel in Century City, Los Angeles. This article delves into the details of the incident, the lawsuit, and the broader context of the allegations against Combs.

Disturbing Video Surfaces

The video, dated March 5, 2016, and verified by CNN, shows Ventura leaving a hotel room and walking toward the elevators. Combs, dressed in a towel, is seen running after her down the hallway. He grabs her by the back of the neck and throws her to the floor. Despite holding his towel with one hand, he kicks Ventura as she lies on the ground. Combs then picks up a purse and suitcase from the floor near the elevators, turns around, and kicks Ventura again.

After this, he briefly drags her by her sweatshirt before walking away. Ventura is seen slowly getting up, gathering her belongings, and picking up a phone on the hallway wall. Combs returns, appears to shove her, and then sits down, forcefully throwing an object at her. He walks away again but turns back as an elevator door opens and someone steps out. The video can be seen here.

Legal Battle & Allegations

Ventura, who reached an undisclosed settlement with Combs, has declined to comment on the newly released footage. Her attorney, Douglas H. Wigdor, stated that the video further confirms the disturbing and predatory behavior of Combs and praised Ventura for her courage in bringing these actions to light. Combs and Ventura, a model and singer known for her hit song “Me & U,” had an on-and-off relationship from 2007 to 2018. They were photographed together at the Los Angeles premiere of A Perfect Match on March 7, 2016. Ventura’s complaint alleges that the altercation captured in the footage took place around March 2016. The complaint detailed that Combs became “extremely intoxicated” and punched her, giving her a black eye.

After Combs fell asleep, Ventura tried to leave the hotel room but was followed by Combs into the hallway. He continued his assault by grabbing her and throwing glass vases, causing them to shatter around her as she ran to the elevator. Ventura then took a cab to her apartment but returned to the hotel, fearing Combs’ reaction. Hotel security, reportedly having seen footage of Combs’ violent behavior, advised her to leave.

The complaint further alleges Combs paid the InterContinental Century City $50,000 for the hallway security footage. This incident was part of a series of allegations Ventura made in her lawsuit, including claims of rape in 2018 and years of repeated abuse. Ventura, who was signed to Combs’ label, stated that he exerted significant control over her both professionally and personally.

Ongoing Legal Issues

Since the lawsuit’s settlement, Combs has faced additional civil lawsuits accusing him of sexual misconduct and other illegal activities. Despite his denials, these cases remain active. In April, federal authorities searched Combs’ homes in California and Florida as part of an investigation by the Department of Homeland Security into human trafficking, stemming from the same sexual assault allegations.

Combs’ attorney, Aaron Dyer, criticized the searches, describing them as an overreach and part of a media-driven rush to judgment. Dyer reiterated that there has been no finding of liability against Combs, who continues to deny all allegations and is determined to clear his name.

Kim Porter’s Alleged Friend Accuses Diddy Of Abusing Her After Cassie Footage Surfaces

May 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

After new alleged footage surfaced of Diddy supposedly assaulting Cassie in a hotel room, one of his ex Kim Porter’s alleged friends spoke out. However, it’s important to note how Egyptian-Sudanese writer Kola Boof explained her relationship with Porter: they apparently had dinner once and spoke on the phone a couple of times. As such, take this with a grain of salt. “This DIDDY thing is not a surprise, but it makes me remember the horrible way he treated my friend… KIM PORTER,” Boof tweeted on Friday (May 17). “…and how I’ve always silently held him responsible for her young death. #RIP KIM. Diddy was a motherf***er. Ya’ll would not even BEGIN to believe the way he treated KIM PORTER — and (ironically) CASSIE back then allowed herself to be used to disrespect Kim in her own home.

“Cassie let herself be flaunted in Kim’s face–LAUGHED at Diddy beating Kim,” Boof claimed. “Was awful. I feel bad for CASSIE getting beat up like that. But I still remember when CASSIE allowed herself to be used ‘Racially’ against KIM PORTER as Diddy humiliated, beat & repeat Kim for years. Ya’ll have always hated me for talking ‘Real’ about these men. But they deserve it. What ya’ll saw in that video of Diddy beating Cassie was NOTHING. Will never forget the time he tried to make Kim Porter lick Cassie’s tampon. Always using Kim’s race as a put down. You guys don’t know the HALF of what women go through with famous & powerful men. Be they rappers, be they Bin Laden, be they actors — ya’ll have NO IDEA. And you always demonized the women. Always! Are you f***ing kidding me??? He beat the s**t out of Kim Porter!!!

Kola Boof’s Most Recent Tweet Explicitly Accusing Diddy Of Abusing Kim Porter & Cassie (See Account For More)

NOTE: This is what Kim Porter told me in a telephone conversation MANY YEARS ago. And I don’t believe she was lying. https://t.co/QW1WC6OAqk

— WRITER KOLA BOOF (@KolaBoof3) May 17, 2024

“Why do ya’ll think I was so hard on these damn men back in the day — always cussing them out?” Boof alleged. “I wrote article attacking DIDDY. Ya’ll always thought I was lying?? OMG! OMG! There is no hope for women in our communities. One time — 4 in the morning– Diddy brought Cassie (who was basically a teenager) into his bedroom where KIM PORTER was sleeping & woke up Kim & told her to get out of the bed so Cassie can get in it. Kim was treated like s**t for years & Cassie giggled about it until SHE became Kim later on. NOTE: This is what Kim Porter told me in a telephone conversation MANY YEARS ago. And I don’t believe she was lying. KNOW WHAT– Let’s break this up now.

“Because I CAN’T WITH AMERICANS,” Boof accused. “I can’t talk to ya’ll — Honestly. I don’t give a f**k what you Americans believe. I’m SO SICK of telling you what’s going on (or went on) in Hollywood and you acting like I’m speaking Yiddish. NO. BE CLEAR …. I only met Kim Porter once at a charity event. We had dinner. But we chatted on the telephone a few times and I believe everything that Kim told me. I have never forgotten. One time she was on the phone crying because she loved him so much & couldn’t bring self to leave him. KNOW WHAT… Don’t talk to Americans. Don’t try to tell them anything. Just let them go on about their day. We’re all LIARS even though we have nothing to gain. smh.”

Diddy Allegedly Assaults Cassie In New Footage From Hotel Security Camera

May 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

New hotel security camera footage from Los Angeles in March of 2016 (reportedly and exclusively obtained by CNN) allegedly shows Diddy assaulting Cassie, lending supposed truth to her since-settled lawsuit against him. It’s important to note that the accusations against him remain speculative and still have yet to fully meet a court of law to determine their veracity. We will not link the video itself in this article, but if you are curious enough to find it in the “Via” link below, proceed with caution as it displays disturbing images. Whether this clip is accurate or not, it seems to parallel some of the narratives that Cassie put forth in her lawsuit.

For one, Diddy is seen striking Cassie in the head in front of the hotel elevator, kicking her twice, taking her possessions back to the hotel room, and then returning to Cassie in the hallway to shove her and launch an item at her, which seems to be a vase. While his representatives have not yet commented on this video, and join him in the staunch denial of any and all allegations, Cassie’s lawyer Douglas Wigdor issued a statement via email. “The gut-wrenching video has only further confirmed the disturbing and predatory behavior of Mr. Combs. Words cannot express the courage and fortitude that Ms. Ventura has shown in coming forward to bring this to light.”

Furthermore, this alleged video seems to be a partial recording of a March 2016 incident that Cassie referred to in her lawsuit against Diddy. In the filing, she claims that it took place at the InterContinental Hotel in Center City, Los Angeles, and that he gave her a black eye while he was intoxicated. CNN was reportedly able to confirm that this alleged clip shows the same interior design as publicly available pictures of the former hotel. While the Bad Boy mogul allegedly returned Cassie’s items to the hotel room while wearing a bath towel and socks, she made a call on a hotel phone, which is when he threw what seems like a vase at her.

With all this in mind, it’s anyone’s guess as to how this could impact the pace, public visibility, or charges when it comes to Diddy’s controversies. While he settled this lawsuit with Cassie, various other legal filings emerged against him. This has been a whirlwind of a story, and this alleged proof might only exacerbate its depth and severity. For more developments and updates, come back to HNHH.

Video Of White Kendrick Lamar Fan Saying N-Word Onstage With Him Resurfaces Amid Drake Beef

May 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kendrick Lamar’s disses towards Drake on “euphoria” are sometimes imperfect, such as the Joel Osteen and Haley Joel Osment mix-up. But even that still makes sense (at least, a little bit), and there are other criticisms against the diss track that, while valid, don’t hold up under a ton of scrutiny. For one, a clip resurfaced on the Internet of a white fan rapping the n-word onstage with K.Dot during his performance of “m.A.A.d. city,” which is -– or rather, was -– a staple of many of his live shows. The reason why it’s relevant to bring up is because of the final shot that he took at Drizzy on his new song: “We don’t want to hear you say n***a no more.”

Furthermore, many called out the hypocrisy that this seemingly suggests, but other fans quickly brought up that Kendrick Lamar already addressed this very same conflict on his 2022 track “Auntie Diaries.” However, the viral instance that he referred to on that song about how he “let a white girl say n***a” happened in 2018, and wasn’t this particular clip. It’s also important to note that this footage below, seemingly from much earlier on in his career, ends abruptly, so we don’t know if there is more context or something that the rapper might’ve said afterwards. Back to that 2018 incident, though, the white fan said the n-word while rapping the chorus to “m.A.A.d. city” (just like this older clip), Kendrick stopped the music and corrected her, and then allowed her to go on after she apologized.

Kendrick Lamar Performs Alongside White Fan Who Says The N-Word: Watch

A post shared by Akademiks TV (@djakademikstv)

Within the context of “Auntie Diaries,” Kendrick Lamar referred to that 2018 moment as a way to call out his own hypocrisy for using the f-slur in relation to the LGBTQIA2+ community. Either everyone can say anything or folks should actually hold others accountable for the bigotry, discrimination, and violent history that their words perpetuate. But let’s also be very clear: this article has been a lot of explaining, something that Drake also deserves as far as misconceptions spreading about his racial identity, his upbringing, and his place in the rap game. Needless to say, both fanbases are definitely reaching occasionally to try to discredit the other.

Meanwhile, there’s a good chance that Drake will probably try to flip this against Kendrick Lamar in whatever he cooks up in response to “euphoria.” After all, both have done a decent job so far of retorting to each and every point that their opponent makes on wax. What’s more is that neither has really dropped “the bomb” yet, something that we don’t even know is a possibility against two titans of their stature and career history. But anything’s possible, so we’ll see how this argument holds up in the discourse.

Diddy’s “Controversial” Private Footage Is Allegedly Being Sold As An NFT

March 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy’s current legal drama has fans and critics more curious than ever to know what the mogul has been up to behind the scenes. Evidently, they may get some answers soon. A new NFT listing on a crypto exchange website boasts footage and photos from his most private moments. It’s unconfirmed exactly what they have, but the listing states that it’s 13,000 files and 3 terabytes of content.

Currently, it’s listed at 425 wETH (Wrapped Ethereum), which equates to almost $1.5 million. It’s described as “unreleased, never-before-seen private footage and photos of Diddy in his residence, private jet, studios and various other locations engaged in private activities … And often doing and saying what appears to be very controversial things.”

NFT Going For $1.5M, Or Highest Bid

(Photo by Shareif Ziyadat/Getty Images for Sean “Diddy” Combs)

It remains to be seen whether or not anyone will actually go through with a purchase of the NFT. It’s unsurprising, however, that people are trying to get in on the highly publicized drama. This is particularly true following the events of this week. On Monday (March 25), Homeland Security raided two of the Bad Boy Records founder’s mansions as part of a federal human trafficking investigation. New details of Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones’ lawsuit against him also came out, including accusations that he was involved in drug trafficking and more. Of course, he’s also accused of sexually assaulting various individuals. He denies all of the allegations.

Diddy appears to be shockingly unbothered by all of the controversy surrounding him these days, even recently hitting up a Miami cafe with Stevie J. Yesterday, he was also spotted at Top Golf with his two twin daughters, flashing a peace sign at onlookers. What do you think of an NFT listing boasting Diddy’s “controversial” private footage?

FBG Duck Murder: New O-Block Footage Surfaces From Before & After Hit

January 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

FBG Duck’s tragic murder in August of 2020 sent shockwaves through Chicago’s rap scene and its O-Block neighborhood. Moreover, following a long trial process and a lot of developments in this regard, the case is still of high interest. Not only that, but some clips recently surfaced of the incident both before and after, although it’s hard to tell exactly what each of them displays. Seemingly, it shows the shooting itself, the culprits before and after it, and when they arrived at their community around the time of the crime. We advise viewer discretion for the shooting clip below, as it places you right on that street.

Furthermore, you may have already heard that the court found six O-Block residents guilty of conspiring and carrying out FBG Duck’s murder. With this, years of investigations, testimonies, conflicting narratives, and loyalties resolved, although the bigger picture is never that easy. Still, many fans of Chicago’s hip-hop scene and community members themselves can at least find a little solace in this justice. Unfortunately, though, these problems are too broad to go away, and thus, folks hope that this can be a wake-up call that results in less violence in the area.

New Footage Emerges Of FBG Duck’s Murder

A post shared by No Jumper (@nojumper)

FBG Duck’s mother had this to say about this verdict shortly after they left that hearing: “Yes, [I feel like they served justice]. Look, from being kicked out the courtroom three times to just allowing God to do his work. And that’s all I’ve been, is steel. When stuff like that happen to a good person, regardless of what somebody else think of them, it ain’t gon’ go unpunished. Vengeance… I could never want another mother to feel like this. To see they child shot down in the street like a dog. Okay? They had an FBG Duck death party. That’s how it meant to them. They threw an FBG Duck death party!

“Same thing that make you laugh gon’ make your a** cry,” she concluded. “That’s all I’ma say about that. Knowing that they would not do that to another family brings me comfort. Knowing they will not terrorize nobody else. They’re done, the whole crew. O-Block and everything of it is done, they a** is done.” For more news and the latest updates on this, stay up to date on HNHH.
Rest In Peace FBG Duck.
