What Did Diddy Do and When Did He Do It?
Diddy is famous. He’s not just famous; he’s internationally super-famous and has been for longer than many of his listeners have been alive. He’s famous for many things, including having nicknames that seem utterly ridiculous for someone who appears to be a Caligula-level degenerate.
For a long time, Combs was professionally known as “Puff Daddy.” Then he became P-Diddy, which is arguably even stupider but not quite as stupid as the name that he ultimately settled on: Diddy.
This is regrettable for many reasons. It lends itself to too much wordplay. Diddy do it? Yeah, Diddy most assuredly did it. I need to stop now before I include a full-on Abbott & Costello routine in an article mostly about sexual assault. Diddy became The Diddler after he was exposed.
Diddler seems right. Sean Combs, the sex criminal, is nothing short of a comic book supervillain. Combs was already notorious as a harsh and demanding boss. There was a hit TV show called Making the Band where desperate, vulnerable young men of modest means engaged in an all-out war for the privilege of working for Sean Combs. It was all about how the Bad Boy mogul was arrogant and bullying, and that’s why he was an amazing capitalist.
Diddy is famous as a producer, rapper, executive, actor, reality show host and fashion maven. He is so famous that his flamboyant valet, Wentworth Bentley, became famous and a recording artist largely by virtue of hanging around Diddy.
The hopefully doomed accused sex and drug trafficker wasn’t just famous for his parties; he was legendary for them. Glossy magazines portrayed Combs as a contemporary Hip Hop Jay Gatsby, the personification of the American dream.
Unlike Jay Gatsby, it looks like things might not turn out so well for Diddy, however. Unlike Romeo & Juliet, Diddy’s romance with Jennifer Lopez was not destined for a happy ending.
Combs was famous for his parties, where famous people partied with other famous people and enjoyed all of the perks of being famous. Photographs of the most famous and beautiful celebrities in the world filled the pages of fancy magazines.
We could only dream about what it would be like to breathe that rarified air and befriend icons and millionaires.
Then Diddy became infamous for them. He reportedly orchestrated elaborate “freak-offs” in which vulnerable women were drugged and bullied into marathon sessions with male sex workers.
Freak-offs were a nightmare realm where hedonism turned ugly, dark, and violent, and pleasure morphed inevitably and horrifically into pain.
There is a whole lot that has yet to come out about Diddy’s world and his crimes. That’s astonishing, considering how much we already know.
We know a lot about the awful things Diddy did behind closed doors while aggressively cultivating an image as a philanthropist and Hip Hop icon. Yet it seems like we only know the tip of the iceberg.
Like Harvey Weinstein and Jeffrey Epstein, Sean Combs seemingly knew everybody. That also meant that Combs could use his power and influence to create blackmail material to ensure his criminal associates remained compliant.
Diddy knew everybody. He partied with everybody. Through his myriad businesses, he worked with everybody. There’s a very good chance that one of your favorite artists, who means a great deal to you, has been photographed smiling broadly alongside Diddy and other celebrities at one of his infamous soirees.
There’s also an unfortunately strong chance that Diddy did a whole lot more with that artist you revere than take some photographs.
I have no idea what went on at Diddy’s parties or who was complicit in his crimes. Combs was obviously good at hiding the dark parts of his life. He was skilled at presenting one face in public and a much different one in private.
I am consequently both morbidly curious and dreading the revelations about what happened at Diddy’s party and who was involved.
It had to be messy. Did Diddy hold a fancy party for all of his famous friends and then, when it ended, bring in wagons full of hard drugs and busloads of sex workers for endless orgies so exhausting and enervating that participants had to be hooked up to an IV after them.
It’s already been rumored that Reginald VelJohnson, the TV dad on Family Values, might have been a participant at Freak Offs. I don’t think that we, as a culture, could handle it if a famously wholesome television father were exposed as a degenerate sex criminal. Verily, civilization as a whole would collapse.
The name that I’ve been reading the most in connection with Diddy is Jay-Z. They were known to have a close friendship. I’m not too knowledgeable about friendship, but I would like to think that if my friend were a prolific sex criminal and abuser, he would not be my friend. Also, I would have at least an inclination that something was very wrong with them in terms of being a deranged sociopath with no concern for human life.
The only positive, I suppose, would be learning that people we like either had no relationship with Diddy or knew he was a creep, like Kid Cudi and, unfortunately, Kanye.
Kanye was right about Diddy. That’s crazy because he’s not right about anything these days. The guy loves Hitler. Did you see him on InfoWars? The man has lost it.
It’s far more likely we’ll get disillusioned all over again. I hope it’s not that bad. I don’t have many illusions left. It’d be a shame to lose the rest of them.
