A legal suit was recently filed against Sean "Diddy" Combs, where the ex-partner of rapper 50 Cent, who is also the mother of one of his kids, was claimed to be involved in sex work.
In February, Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones filed a legal action and accused Daphne Joy of engaging in prostitution and selling her services to Combs. Daphne Joy had previously been romantically involved with Curtis Jackson back in 2011-2012.
"I had no idea you were a prostitute, [eye emojis] you little prostitute. Haha, this situation is crazy," the rapper posted on social media. He did not specifically mention Ms Joy by name.
Ms Joy and 50 Cent have a 12-year-old child together. They eventually separated after Ms Joy accused 50 Cent of being physically violent towards her. However, 50 Cent has refuted those claims and denied any wrongdoing.
On Monday, law enforcement officers raided Diddy's residence and took possessions as part of their inquiry into sex trafficking, which could be linked to Mr. Jones' legal action.
According to Mr. Jones, Diddy coerced him into engaging in sexual activity with prostitutes. In addition, Brenden Paul, a member of Diddy's group, allegedly smuggled weapons and took care of paying the prostitutes.
Diddy employed many individuals who provided sexual services. The majority received cash as payment, but the lawsuit highlights that four of them, including Ms. Joy, were given a set amount each month for their services.
The part of the blog states that there were three ladies, specifically Yung Miami, Jade, and Daphne Joy, who received a regular payment from Mr Combs in exchange for providing sexual services, and the mode of payment was through wire transfer.
There has been no public statement from Ms Joy regarding the lawsuit. The Independent has attempted to communicate with her for a comment.
Diddy refutes any claims made against him. The hip-hop artist has not faced any legal charges and was not kept in custody by law enforcement.
According to Diddy's lawyer, Shawn Holley, Lil Rod is just a dishonest person who initiated a legal case worth $30 million. Trying to grab attention, Lil Rod falsely mentioned incidents that never took place, revealing his lack of responsibility in a clear and open manner.
According to him, his lawyers possess unambiguous and incontrovertible evidence that the declarations made by Mr Jones are entirely untrue.
He stated that we will deal with these absurd accusations in a legal setting and pursue necessary measures against those who produce them.
50 Cent has been teasing Diddy ever since the investigation became widely known.
Last December, he hinted about a documentary that would tackle the issue of sexual abuse and rape in the world of rap. He brought it up again after the federal government raided Diddy's mansion in LA.
