Last month, Diddy faced arrest and was charged with offenses including s*x trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for the purpose of pr*stitution. While he remains in custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, Busta Rhymes shared his thoughts during an interview with Extra on October 21, 2024.
The interview took place at the premiere of **Venom: The Last Dance** in New York City, where Busta Rhymes stated that he intended to hold off on forming any judgments related to the unfolding legal situation. He emphasized:
“What we should take from this is that everyone probably needs to mind their own business until the truth is established. When that happens, justice should be served appropriately for all parties involved.”
Busta further remarked on the need for caution when discussing such matters, labeling it “insensitive”to comment on issues one does not fully understand, aside from the information presented. He also addressed Diddy directly, stating:
“This isn’t just a hip-hop matter, and I believe people should be mindful of the eagerness and necessity to comment on this situation.”
Notably, a clip of the interview was shared by **Hollywood Unlocked** on their Instagram page, prompting various reactions from internet users in the comments section. One commenter appeared to critique Busta’s stance, quipping:
“If you attended a Diddy party, just say that.”
Conversely, many supported Busta Rhymes, with one user expressing that accusations and speculations were exacerbating the situation. Others urged Busta to comment further after watching the assault footage involving Cassie Ventura, which CNN had acquired in May.
Busta Rhymes advised to prioritize personal focus until Diddy is proven guilty
In his discussion with Extra, Busta maintained that harsh criticism and speculation regarding the case would serve no beneficial purpose. He reiterated that “justice should be rightfully served for all involved”and urged everyone to concentrate on their lives until “the truth is known.”
Additionally, he highlighted the importance of thinking about Diddy’s alleged victims, stating:
“For those who were affected, let’s prioritize their well-being before considering our own opinions. Let’s offer our prayers for them all.”
He concluded his remarks on the matter, emphasizing his intent to refrain from further commentary while stressing that voicing personal opinions can potentially hurt others:
“I’m going to stop here, and I hope everyone can choose to keep their opinions to themselves, understanding that voicing an opinion may cause harm to someone else.”
Quick overview of Diddy’s ongoing legal battles
Known as Sean John Combs, Diddy was taken into custody on September 16, 2024. The following day, Page Six reported on a grand jury indictment that revealed authorities found bottles of baby oil and lubricant at his residence during a March raid, purportedly used for alleged s*xual encounters termed “freak-offs.”
Earlier this month, attorney Tony Buzbee announced at a press briefing that he would represent around 120 claimed victims of Diddy, revealing that inquiries have come from approximately 3,000 individuals looking to pursue legal action against him. Just a week ago, Diddy was also sued by six additional claimants over various offenses, such as molestation and s*xual assault.
After his arrest, Diddy sought bail, but his requests were denied, and his trial is set for May 5, 2025.
