First, let’s clarify that these internet detectives could be wrong. Despite all the clues they think they are seeing in this lawsuit, there is no way to tell what is and is not true since most of us were not there to see it.
In any case, the allegations against Diddy continue to stack up. We’ve all heard about the latest lawsuit against the hip-hop mogul brought by music producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones. In the lengthy 73-page complaint, which can be read here, Jones claims that he recorded audio and video of Diddy and his staff engaging in “illegal activity.”
He also alleges that Diddy forced him to gather sex workers and participate in unwanted sexual acts with them. The suit names several people associated with the Bad Boy founder including his son, Justin Combs, his chief of staff, Kristina Khorram, former Motown Records CEO Ethiopia Habtemariam, and Universal Music Group CEO Sir Lucian Grainge.
Jones didn’t file this lawsuit just to expose people, he’s seeking nearly $30 million in the process, according to NBC News.
Here Is Where it Gets Dicey and Ugly:
Despite all the claims made by “Lil Rod,” folks on social media speculate about people not named in the lawsuit, specifically Meek Mill and Usher.
In the document, neither artist is named or accused of any crime. However, since some redactions seem to reference two people fitting Usher and Meek Mill’s descriptions, sleuths on social media have run with it.
For example, the lawsuit reads, “Rapper (REDACTED) on Mr. Combs yacht consorting with underaged girls, sex workers.”
Later in the complaint, the redacted name is described as a “Philadelphia rapper who dated Nicki Minaj.”
This is where people are claiming that Meek Mill is involved since he doesn’t hide that he’s Philadelphia and he did date Nicki Minaj back in 2015.
But the claims involving a “Rapper (REDACTED),” only get more damning when the suit refers to the relationship between Diddy and Stevie J.
We must add that both Diddy and Stevie J. vehemently deny that anything Jones is saying is true.
Jones alleges in the lawsuit that Diddy groomed the former Bad Boy Records producer for sex and even includes a photo that allegedly shows Stevie J having intercourse with another man.
However, adult film star Knockout, commenting on a post on X has since claimed the alleged photo of Stevie J. having sex is him in a video: “That’s me smh.”
So what does this have to do with Meek Mill and Usher?
In the lawsuit, it says, “Mr. Combs informed Mr. Jones that he had engaged in sexual intercourse with rapper (REDACTED), R&B singer (REDACTED), and Stevie J.”
The mystery R&B singer is described as someone who performed at the Super Bowl and has had a “successful Las Vegas residency.”
We’ve reached out to Universal Music Group and Diddy’s lawyers for comment and have received no response.
Meek Mill and Usher’s response to the speculation
While Usher has not addressed the speculation at all, Meek Mill went on a social media rant on Wednesday, attacking anyone who questions his sexuality and claiming that he has not been involved in any illegal activity with Diddy.
He specifically aimed his frustration toward DJ Akademiks, who was seen reading the 73-page lawsuit in a clip circulating on social media.
This one clip set Meek Mill off leading him to post a myriad of posts on X, going at the controversial blogger.
He later addresses and denies speculation that he’s had sex with men, writing, “I’m from Philly I don’t do coke or freaky ass molly … nobody won’t even offer me coke because I’m that heavy …. No man or watt would ever approach me about gay activity and the whole place don’t get flipped … woke up seeing this on every blog like they know I’m coming! lol.”
This led to an entire back-and-forth between Meek Mill and DJ Akademiks (which we are not going to include here).
