Lil Rod Claims He Will Name Diddy Co-Conspirators Unless Lawsuit Is Settled

Lil Rod saw the writing on the wall. The musician and producer filed a lawsuit against Diddy months before the mogul was indicted on multiple federal counts. He’s seeking $30 million from Diddy, but has been met with opposition. Diddy’s legal team has filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit. But Lil Rod, born Rodney Jones, did not budge. In fact, he doubled down on his accusations. He threatened Diddy’s team by claiming to reveal the name of his co-conspirators if he wasn’t willing to pay up.

Lil Rod’s lawyer, Tyrone Blackburn, contested Diddy’s motion on September 30. He issued a statement to the court, according to AllHipHop. He noted that Diddy’s credibility is at an all time low. Diddy doesn’t have much to offer, or combat Rod’s heinous accusations. Furthermore, Blackburn noted that his client declined to name some of the people that have aided Diddy in his alleged criminal exploits. This was by design. If Diddy refuses to settle the lawsuit, however, Rod has no problem calling them out.

Lil Rod Is Seeking A $30 Million Payday From Diddy

“Plaintiff has opted not to name these individuals in this opposition to the motion to dismiss,” the lawyer noted. “If, in their reply, the defendants decide to foolishly ‘look a gift horse in the mouth,’ then plaintiff will gladly supplement this opposition memo. And provide the court with the identities of the individuals.” Blackburn effectively dared Diddy to challenge his client, so that they can replead the case and make it even more difficult for the mogul.

“The plaintiff will gladly replead and include the identity of the defendant’s accountant,” he asserted. “As well as the account number which they used to commit their wire fraud. Blackburn also claimed that Lil Rod would be willing to provide the identities of agents who helped Diddy book international flights. “The travel agent who booked all of the flights,” he explained. “And rented all of the chartered planes that Mr. Combs and the members of the Combs RICO enterprise used to traffic prostitutes.” It’s looking bad for Diddy, and increasingly advantageous for Lil Rod.

Diddy Accused Of Deceiving The Court In Lil Rod Harassment Lawsuit

Diddy has become a headline machine in 2024. The disgraced Bad Boy mogul seems to be in the news every other week, due to an accusation or an ongoing case. The latter proved to be true on September 10. Tyrone Blackburn, the lawyer representing Lil Rod in his case against Diddy, criticized the mogul and claimed that he was using deceptive tactics while in court. Blackburn went as far as to outline the ways in which he feels Diddy has tried to exploit the legal system to clear the name of his son, Justin Combs.

AllHipHop obtained the court documents detailing Blackburn’s issues. The lawyer claimed that various efforts have been made to sandbag the Lil Rod case. Additional time has been requested on the part of Diddy’s attorney Erica Wolff, according to the documents. Blackburn granted the request, but claims he was then hit with a motion to dismiss that excluded Justin Combs’ name. The lawyer perceived this as a tactic get the younger Combs off through underhanded tactics. He said as much his filing. He believes that Diddy wants to run out the clock. His presumed reasoning? If 120 days passes and Justin Combs is not served with Lil Rod’s lawsuit, then the court would dismiss the action against him without prejudice.

“This is a clear game that [Sean] Combs and his ever-evolving legal team have implemented,” Blackburn stated. “Ann effort to have Justin Combs dismissed from this case due to lack of service of process.” The lawyer didn’t stop there. He proceeded to bolster his claim by citing another instance in which he felt the mogul did the same thing. “This is the same game,” he opined. “That Jonathan Davis and Sean Combs’s former counsel, Shawn [Holley], recently implemented in California.” The lawsuit Blackburn is referring to involved Diddy and his other son, Christian Combs.

Tyrone Blackburn has no intention to play into what he perceives as Diddy’s plan. The lawyer wants his client, Lil Rod, to get a fair shake. AllHipHop noted that Blackburn lawyer will file a 60 day extension in order to properly serve Justin Combs. Lil Rod’s suit levels numerous accusations at the Combs family. Sexual assault, trafficking and racketeering are some of the heinous crimes that Lil Rob claims to have witnessed or experienced firsthand.

Diddy Labels Lil Rod’s Claims “Pure Fiction” In New Motion

Diddy is fighting back against Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones’ bombshell lawsuit, in which he accuses the Bad Boy mogul of sexually harassing, drugging, and threatening him. NBC News obtained a motion from Diddy’s legal team on Monday, in which they argue to dismiss Jones’ case. His attorney, Tyrone Blackburn, originally filed the lawsuit back in February. They’re seeking damages amounting to $30 million.

The motion claims that Jones’ lawsuit is rampant with lies. “Running to nearly 100 pages, it includes countless tall tales, shameless celebrity namedrops, and irrelevant images,” it reads. Diddy’s lawyer Erica Wolff, added in a statement: “Mr. Jones’s lawsuit is pure fiction — a shameless attempt to create media hype and extract a quick settlement. There was no RICO conspiracy and Mr. Jones was not threatened, groomed, assaulted, or trafficked. We look forward to proving — in a court of law — that all of Mr. Jones’s claims are made-up and must be dismissed.” They further accused Jones of trying to “generate media hype and exploit it to extract a settlement.”

In response, Blackburn said that he hasn’t gotten a chance to read through the motion in its entirety, but reaffirmed his support for his client. “This is clearly a billing exercise by individuals who are late to the game and are attempting to fill their pockets before their client is indicted,” he said. Blackburn is also representing April Lampros, who is suing Diddy for four alleged instances of sexual assault. Diddy has already denied those claims as well.

The string of lawsuits against Diddy began last year, when Cassie accused him of rape, sex trafficking, and physical assault in a lawsuit of her own. The two quickly settled that case. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy on HotNewHipHop.

Lil Rod Addresses Diddy In New Video: “I Want My Money By Monday”

Lil Rod’s lawsuit against Diddy is one of several filings accusing the Bad Boy mogul of sexual assault, harassment, abuse, sex trafficking, and other crimes. Moreover, it seems like Rodney Jones Jr.’s still waiting for his money and expecting Sean Combs to respond eventually, as he detailed in a new video. Uncle Murda ran into Rod at 50 Cent’s “Humor & Harmony Weekend” event, and teased him about being the one to sue Puffy for $30 million. Eventually, Jones Jr. said “I want my money by Monday.” It makes sense that the two men would be joking about this, as neither has much love for Combs and Fif is an even more ardent detractor of his fellow executive’s.

Furthermore, the last update we got on Diddy’s situation is another theory from the G-Unit mogul. “I’m the only person in hip-hop culture that has produced any hit television. Why wouldn’t I be the person to produce it?” he told US Weekly about the documentary he produced about the disgraced multi-hyphenate. “And I’m not on the tapes. See, some of the people who have been around in the culture who are not saying anything. That’s because they’ve been to the parties… They don’t know what part of their experiences are on tape. So it keeps them quiet. And it looks like I’m the only guy, but I’ve been [saying] for years that something’s not right.”

Lil Rod Calls Diddy Out

Elsewhere, Boosie Badazz thinks that other accusers like Cassie want even more money from Diddy, much like how Lil Rod is demanding his cut. “It’s just a mess right now,” he posited during his latest DJ Vlad interview. “It’s just a mess everywhere right now. Cassie and that side don’t sound too happy. I know she ain’t got no $30 million.”

Meanwhile, as far as Diddy’s legal situation, there haven’t really been much updates on his whereabouts or his moves. Instead, a lot of recent conversation revolved around Yung Miami’s Caresha Please confessions about their relationship. As for his numerous lawsuits on the table, we haven’t really seen much development in any of them. But all of that could change very quickly, so we need to simply keep our eyes peeled and keep asking for what’s next.

Soulja started going at Metro Boomin on Sunday after one of the producer’s tweets from 2012 resurfaced. “My phone rings to come to the studio with Jeezy.

Who Is Daphne Joy? 50 Cent’s Baby Mama Named In Diddy Case

If you’ve been following along with the ongoing Diddy drama, you’re likely already aware of the name Daphne Joy. What you may not know, however, is that Daphne Joy shares an eleven-year-old son named Sire with her famous ex, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson. Given her ties to Sean Combs and impending legal issues, 50 Cent has set a custody battle in motion to get full parental guardianship over their underage son, Sire. With a lot of bizarre information surrounding the actress, model, and alleged sex worker, according to Lil Rod, let’s not waste any time unpacking what we know about Daphne Joy.

Joy’s Work History

Long before she became named in the Diddy sexual assault lawsuit, Daphne Joy was born in 1987 in the Philippines. Since immigrating to the United States, she has received work as an actor and model, appearing in films such as Setup, Frankenhood, and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, according to her IMDb. Joy has also launched a self-titled swimwear line, offering bold and breathable designs that accent the beautiful feminine curves of her patrons. The latest clothing drop is currently on pace to premiere on April 26, per Daphne’s Instagram.

Daphne Joy has also worked as a model and frequently appears in the advertising material for her swimwear collection. Her social media showcases a wide array of collaborators, including photographers and luxury brands. According to a write-up in Page Six, she also produces OnlyFans content, which can be accessed by the public for $24.99 per month.

Association With Diddy

While Daphne Joy’s true relationship to Diddy remains unknown, the pair have not shied away from showing each other love online. In 2022, Joy referred to Diddy as her “favorite person” in an Instagram post wishing the controversial producer a happy birthday. The pair have also been spotted together at numerous social events. According to a recent lawsuit brought against Diddy by producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, Daphne Joy has been on Diddy’s payroll as an alleged sex worker. Jones claims that Joy is one of several women whom Diddy paid a monthly stipend for sex work as part of an ongoing legal case regarding sexual assault.

Lil Rod also claims that he was responsible for choosing sex workers to bring onto Diddy’s yacht for a January 2023 trip to the U.S. Virgin Islands and that Diddy forced Rod to engage in sex acts with these escorts against his will. It is unclear at this time if Daphne Joy is one of the alleged sex workers present on that trip.

50 Cent Responds

As expected, 50 Cent has been viciously trolling his one-time baby mama along with Diddy on social media, poking fun at the sex work allegations and seeking sole custody of his son from Daphne Joy’s care. After repeatedly posting about Joy’s predicament on social media, Joy snapped back at 50 with a lengthy post accusing him of abuse and assault. She also accused 50 Cent of being a bad father, suggesting that she moved herself and their son Sire within a mile of 50’s residence in New York, only for 50 to visit ten times in the span of 2 years.

While it remains unclear if there is any validity to these claims, Joy also posted a response to Lil Rod’s sex work accusations on the same day, writing, “I am deeply hurt by the lies in Rodney Jones’ lawsuit. The claim that I am a sex worker is 100% false and character assassination. I am retaining an attorney to explore all legal remedies against both Rodney and his attorney.”

UMG Boss Lucian Grainge Wants Court To Dismiss Him From Lil Rod’s Diddy Lawsuit

The lawsuit against Diddy from Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, the producer accusing him of sexual assault and sex trafficking, doesn’t just include allegations against the Bad Boy mogul. Moreover, two big record companies appeared as defendants in this suit due to alleged liability reasons: Motown and Universal Music Group (UMG), plus a notable individual. This is the head of the latter organization, Sir Lucian Grainge, who reportedly requested the court via his legal team (which is also acting on behalf of these companies) for dismissal from the case altogether. Attorneys for all three parties, referred to as “the UMG Defendants,” reportedly filed a motion for this dismissal on Wednesday (April 24) and asked a New York judge to throw out all claims concerning them with prejudice, according to court documents reportedly obtained by journalist Meghann Cuniff.

“All of the claims against Grainge, Motown and UMG Recordings (the ‘UMG Defendants’) in the [second amended complaint] are lacking in any legally cognizable basis,” lawyers supposedly argued in court docs concerning the Diddy case. “Every claim [premises] on the untenable strict liability theory that when one enters into a commercial contract, the payor under that contract becomes liable for anything that the recipient of payment does with the payment.

“There is no law underpinning such theory and the baseless ‘general business partnership’ allegation in the [second amended complaint] provides no support,” the legal team reportedly continued in their argument in dismissal from the Diddy case. “The claims against the UMG Defendants are entirely bereft of legal merit and should be dismissed with prejudice.” Lil Rod’s lawsuit claims that Lucian Grainge helped Sean Combs engage in his crimes, which Grainge’s attorneys allegedly denied outright. “Plaintiff and his counsel (Blackburn) have blown up a $50,000 claim for underpayment for production services into criminal accusations against Sean Combs and his associates,” they reportedly expressed.

Not content to pursue Combs alone, without any factual or legal basis, Plaintiff and his counsel (Blackburn) have also improperly accused Grainge, UMG Recordings and Motown (collectively, the UMG Defendants) of furthering, participating in, and helping to conceal the alleged conduct of Combs and his associates based on a knowingly false ‘general business partnership’ allegation coupled with the fabrication of a non-existent duty to supervise and control how Combs spent his own money,” they concluded. Regardless, for more news and the latest updates on the Diddy case, log back into HNHH.

Diddy’s Lawyers Reportedly Plan On Bringing Up Rodney Jones’ Alleged Criminal History

According to new unconfirmed reports, Diddy’s legal team is taking new measures to combat the claims made by producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones against him. Moreover, for those unaware, Jones accused him of sexual assault and sex trafficking, explosive claims similar to others that came forward. However, these are only allegations and all of the accusations put forth have been unconfirmed by a court of law at press time and the validity of any evidence is also unconfirmed. This new report from the Daily Mail suggests that Sean Combs’ lawyers, in addition to denying all of Lil Rod’s claims in tandem with Combs standing by his claims of innocence, are supposedly pointing to Rod’s alleged criminal history.

Furthermore, the outlet reports that Diddy’s legal representation is allegedly pointing to a reckless homicide conviction that Rodney Jones received back in 2003. In addition, defense lawyers in this specific case are apparently alleging that Rod also faced multiple assault charges that eventually resulted in dismissal. Tyrone Blackburn, Jones’ attorney and a staunch proponent that Puff will be indicted soon, responded to these allegations via a Page Six statement. In it, he claims that this is merely an attempt from the defense team to distract from supposedly harsher upcoming consequences, and that Rod pleaded guilty to this because he didn’t have proper legal representation.

“I am sure you know that a charge is not a conviction,” Blackburn said of Diddy’s team’s claims. “So, running this story on behalf of [Diddy’s camp] is problematic and calls into question your integrity as a journalist. Mr. Jones’ July 2003 reckless homicide occurred when he was 17 years old. He was driving a vehicle with his cousin in the passenger seat. The police pulled him over, but he was afraid and drove off. It was pretty typical behavior for a young black boy in Chicago when pulled over by the police. As a result, he totaled the vehicle, and his cousin, who was his best friend, died.

“He has to live with the guilt of the death of his best friend and family member for the rest of his life,” he continued. “But don’t let that stop you from running this story and getting your clicks. [Diddy’s] legal team can do nothing to distract from the fact that he will be indicted soon.” One of the Bad Boy mogul’s attorney’s previously claimed to TMZ that Lil Rod is “a liar who filed a $30 billion lawsuit shamelessly looking for an undeserved payday” along with the team’s other denials of any and all wrongdoing. It’s also important to note that Blackburn received criticism in the past for supposedly questionable litigation tactics. For more news and the latest updates on Diddy, keep checking in with HNHH.

Lil Rod Hasn’t Talked To Diddy Investigators For Testimony, But Is Willing: Report

The federal investigation into Diddy’s alleged criminal activity amid his various sexual assault lawsuits is still a mystery, but supposed reports on it paint a potentially explosive picture. Moreover, according to TMZ, federal authorities have not yet contacted Rodney Jones, also known as Lil Rod, to offer sworn testimony for this process. For those unaware, Jones put forth one of the couple of lawsuits against the music executive, and his shocking claims roped celebrities like Usher and Meek Mill into the mix. Of course, it should be emphasized that this is an unconfirmed report based on secondhand claims, so we still have to see whether he actually participates.

Furthermore, this follows other reports about another Diddy accuser apparently cooperating with this investigation from the FBI. Cassie’s lawsuit against him sparked this current wave of scrutiny and judgement, whether that’s from the general public, the music and business entertainment industries, or now law enforcement. She reportedly joins others in that cooperation, but until there is an actual federal case prepared against the Bad Boy Records founder, we won’t know for sure. Also, there’s the possibility that these will only be interviews, and that some of these accusers might not want to appear in a public-facing trial.

While these are a lot of moving and unconfirmed parts to consider, it stands the reason that Diddy’s accusers would be of the highest priority when it comes to who the federal investigation wants to talk to. TMZ also claimed through their alleged sources that Rodney Jones is willing to cooperate if the FBI asks him to do so. However, according to their report, he feels patiently satisfied with the federal raids on the rapper’s homes. These specifically centered around a sex trafficking investigation that, if true considering their alleged nature, would relate to some of the claims that Lil Rod put forth.

Meanwhile, authorities haven’t formally charged Sean Combs with anything, and he denied any and all accusations against him. Interestingly, his settlement with Cassie didn’t prevent her cooperation, if reports are true, and he still faces plenty of civil lawsuits whose allegations haven’t seen a conclusion. What do you think about this whole debacle? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments section below. Also, come back to HNHH for the latest news and more updates on the Diddy situation.
