Diddy Faces Multiple Lawsuits Over Alleged Sexual Assaults

Three men have filed lawsuits in New York accusing Sean 'Diddy' Combs of drugging and raping them at Manhattan hotels and his Hamptons estate between 2019 and 2022. The lawsuits allege that Combs spiked their drinks, leading to loss of consciousness, and then sexually assaulted them, sometimes with others from Bad Boy Records. The victims, who remain anonymous due to alleged threats, claim they were given money after the assaults. Combs' attorneys have denied the allegations, calling them false and promising to seek sanctions against the lawyers involved.

Diddy Returns Publishing Rights to Bad Boy Artists

Sean "Diddy" Combs, founder of Bad Boy Records, has agreed to give back the publishing rights to all artists and writers who worked with the label. Artists such as Faith Evans, Mase, The Lox, 112, and the estate of The Notorious B.I.G. have signed agreements to receive their publishing rights. Combs chose to reallocate the rights instead of selling them, aiming to promote financial mobility for artists, particularly within the Black community. Bad Boy Records has sold over 500 million records since its founding in 1992.

"Diddy's Generosity: Returning Lucrative Publishing Rights to Artists on Bad Boy Records Label"

Diddy is bucking the trend of musicians selling their publishing rights by returning the lucrative publishing rights to artists signed to his Bad Boy Records label. He has reportedly turned down offers worth hundreds of millions of dollars to do so. This move comes after Diddy donated $2 million to Black initiatives and the Jackson State University Development Fund. Artists such as Ma$e, Faith Evans, The Lox, and the estate of the late Notorious B.I.G. are among those benefiting from this arrangement. Diddy aims to revolutionize the music industry and hopes other executives and record labels will follow suit.

Diddy Transfers Music Rights to Notorious B.I.G., Mase, and Faith Evans

Sean "Diddy" Combs has decided to reassign the publishing rights of Bad Boy Records back to the artists and writers who helped build the label, including the Notorious B.I.G.'s estate, Faith Evans, Mase, the Lox, and 112. The assets are worth hundreds of millions of dollars and have increased in value as music catalogs from other artists have been sold for nine-figure deals. Combs has received multi-million dollar offers for the rights but has chosen to reassign them to the songwriters. This move is seen as part of Combs' goal to promote economic empowerment for Black artists and culture.
