May 29, 2024, 03:15 AM

Sean 'Diddy' Combs is facing significant backlash following the emergence of footage showing him assaulting his former girlfriend, Cassie, in 2016. This incident has led to numerous allegations of abuse and misconduct against the rapper. Cassie, who dated Diddy for about a decade, spoke publicly for the first time about her accusations since filing a lawsuit last November, which was settled in one day. Rolling Stone conducted a six-month investigation, interviewing 50 people connected to Diddy, uncovering multiple instances of physical aggression, sexual harassment, and other forms of abuse by Diddy. These allegations include an incident where Diddy allegedly beat a music executive over his relationship with Combs' ex, Kim Porter, and another where he was accused of groping producer Rodney 'Lil Rod' Jones. Former Bad Boy employees and associates have also come forward with stories of abuse and intimidation dating back to his time at Howard University. As a result, some companies are distancing themselves from Diddy, and public sentiment is largely against him.
