Diddy faces further allegations of violence and sexual harassment

Diddy faces further allegations of violence and sexual harassment after the Bad Boy Records founder was investigated for six months. Rolling Stone.

Compiled from interviews with more than 50 people connected to Diddy throughout his career, the story details how his alleged abusive behavior began while he was a student at Howard University in the late 1980s.

The article describes an incident in which the mogul allegedly hit a woman repeatedly with a belt. An anonymous source said, “(Puff) smacked her butt – like, really smacked her butt.”

The report also claims that Diddy once bashed late Def Jam manager Shakir Stewart for dating his ex-girlfriend Kim Porter.

The incident allegedly occurred in 2000 at LA Reid’s wedding in Italy. According to sources, Puffy smashed a chair over Stewart’s head, leaving him bleeding on the floor of a hotel.

Stewart later committed suicide in 2008, while Porter – who has three children with Diddy – died of pneumonia in 2018.

Diddy is also accused of attacking a woman in Bad Boy’s offices in 1994. Two employees were forced to pull him away when they heard screams and the sound of breaking glass.

Another woman, who worked as a graphic designer for Bad Boy, claims he sexually assaulted her in 2001 at a party honoring his acquittal in connection with the 1999 New York nightclub shooting for which Shyne served nearly a decade in prison.

The woman claims Diddy came up to her and started massaging her shoulders while telling her, “Oh yeah, you like that? I know you like that.”

She later found out that the record executive had allegedly approached her boss on the night of the party to “procure her for sex.”

“I felt pretty uncomfortable about it for many years. When people ask me about my time with Bad Boy, it just gets overshadowed by his crap,” she said.

The report also contains allegations about Diddy’s relationships with other rappers. Among other things, he claims he was jealous of The Notorious BIG’s friendship with 2Pac and “didn’t want that friendship to happen,” according to photographer Monique Bunn.

Diddy apparently tried to build a bond with ‘Pac, but the Death Row MC “had no respect for Puff whatsoever,” Bunn said, adding that ‘Pac thought he was a “cheesy manager.”

The Harlem native was also reportedly unpopular with Bad Boy and his former label Uptown, and ex-signee Ma$e reportedly gave him the nickname “Massa” – a reference to the Southern dialect for slave owners.

Diddy declined to comment on the publication’s allegations. His lawyer stated, “Mr. Combs cannot comment on concluded litigation, will not comment on pending litigation, and cannot respond to every allegation the press picks up from any source, no matter how unreliable.”

“We are aware that the relevant authorities are conducting a thorough investigation and therefore trust that all important issues will be addressed in the relevant forum where the rules distinguish fact from fiction.”

The allegations come in addition to six sexual assault lawsuits filed against the Bad Boy boss, as well as the federal sex trafficking investigation that resulted in two of his homes being raided in March.

Earlier this month, video footage of Diddy’s brutal attack on his ex-girlfriend Cassie in 2016 leaked online, prompting the mogul to issue an apology.
