336. What we can learn from P Diddy (as a D.I.Y. Rock Star)
(video: https://bit.ly/336pdiddyvid and podcast: https://bit.ly/336pdiddypod )
You MUST be living under a rock if you havenât heard about the allegations against a âbelovedâ OG hip hop star, Puff Daddy (P Diddy or Sean âDiddyâ Combs). THIS is what we have taken away from the whole mess.
Check out the episode for the full discussion.

Â
On how we arrived at THIS topic:
We were âinspiredâ by many YouTube videos, but none that was more influential than another, so weâll encourage you to Google the topic to come to your own conclusions. Â
Â
What was our INITIAL response?
It made us sick to hear it. People should NOT be being abused. People should NOT let themselves be abused. How could this go on for 16 yearsâthere MUST be so many people involved in participating in (parties, accommodations, turning a blind eye, law enforcement) and covering up the abuse (hotels, employees of P Diddyâesp. Staff Managerâlaw enforcement). Â
Â
We thought R. Kelly and Jerry Epstein were badâwith their grooming underage girls to have sex with folksâbut P. Diddy tops them ALL, because he physically abused, drugged, and threatened to shoot and/or share the sex tapes that he would make. AND there is an allegation that he poisoned Jamie Foxx, which accounted for that recent hospitalization and health scare from 2023. WTF?! Also, he shot some folks and blew up Kid Cudiâs car, according to what he allegedly bragged about with his crew.Â

Â
More?!
Also, after the Cassie Ventura complaint, he was alleged to be calling potential witnesses âup to more than a hundred times in one dayâto convince them to say something more in his favor.Â
Â
They think itâs okay becauseâŠ
I guess, the REASON we are SO big on generating the buzz on your own is so that you DONâT fall prey to this type of insanity and/or you can build your resolve, so as to be stronger as you NEED to be (as you grow along to new challenges). âIf you evaluate EACH opportunity as it comes, hopefully, you will sidestep any that seem âtoo good to be trueâ or that come with a price that you ARENâT willing to pay. Â
