Tuesday, October 08, 2024 - American rapper, DJ, record producer, actor and podcaster Lord Jamar has weighed in on the Diddy situation saying he is unsurprised by the wave of allegations levelled at the Bad Boy Records founder.
According to Jamar, he heard stories about Diddy dating
back to the early 1990s claiming that Diddy's sexuality actually led to him
being fired from his first job in the music industry at Uptown Records.
Diddy got his job as an A&R at Uptown Records in the
early 1990s. He worked under Andre Harrell, and helped to develop iconic
R&B acts like Mary J. Blige and Jodeci. Diddy was fired from Uptown in
1993, in turn leading to the creation of Bad Boy Records.
Diddy has repeatedly said in the past that his ambition was
the reason he was fired from the job, but Lord Jamar alleges that Diddy was let
go because he was caught having sex with another man in the Uptown offices.
"That's why I
heard," Lord Jamar told The Art of Dialogue.
"He got caught in a
precarious act, doing something real baby oil-ish in the office."
Lord Jamar implied that the other man involved in the alleged "precarious act" is also someone of not. He declines to name the man, however. "I don't know," the rapper stated.
"I'm just saying, that was the rumor." Jamar then
went on to allege that Diddy is part of a so-called "Gay Mafia"
within the music industry. He didn't get into detail about who the other
members of this alleged group were. He did, however, claim that the Bad Boy
founder is not actually the one in charge.
"You just saw one of the
gay mafia members. That’s who he is, that’s who Puffy is," Lord Jamar told
the outlet. "He is one of the members of the mob. He’s a mafia member. But
he might not be the Don Carl, he is not the godfather. He is one of the heads
of the family."
Jamar isn't the only one who has claimed to have heard
unnerving rumours about Diddy in the 1990s. Diddy's former bodyguard alleged
that he heard a story involving Diddy and a teenage Usher.
Lord Jamar says he heard Diddy was caught with another man at Uptown Records, which led to him being fired, while speaking on rumors that Diddy has been bisexual since the 90's.
