With charges of human trafficking, traveling to engage in prostitution, and racketeering. Recently, several comments Usher made regarding his time living with Diddy at the age of 13 have resurfaced online.
While Diddy awaits his upcoming trial, clips and comments from years ago are seeing a resurgence. Many fans speculate that the alleged crimes have always been a rumor within the entertainment industry.
However, R&B crooner Usher Raymond’s comments made during a 2004 Rolling Stone interview have swept the internet as of recent.
“Puff introduced me to a totally different set of s*** — s**, specifically,” Usher said. “S** is so hot in the industry, man.”
According to Usher, he lived with Diddy, who had guardianship of the young singer in 1994. Diddy produced the singer’s self-titled album, and according to the Usher, the idea of living with the then 25-year-old record producer/executive came from none other than LA Reid.
During the 2004 Rolling Stone interview, Usher recalled the wild time he spent in Diddy’s Scarsdale house.
“There was always girls around.” Usher expressed. “You’d open a door and see somebody doing it, or not several people in a room having an o****. You never knew what was going to happen.”
Usher’s remarks alluding to Diddy’s wild parties, did not stop in 2004, he continued to hint at Diddy’s wild parties into 2013.
According to Daily News, Usher talked about his time spent with the Bad Boy record executive, along with the advice he received from his mentor during his birthday speech at his 35th birthday party.
“I was introduced to everything by Puff Daddy when I was only 15 – parties, women, s** and d***,” Usher shared. “I’ve had a taste of it but I’d never let it take me over.”
“I had Puff as my mentor, but I wouldn’t pass on any of the advice he gave me,” the R&B singer continued.
The “Confessions” singer continued to share his experience of living with Diddy, and his wild parties which he and other celebrities coined “Puffy Flavor Camp” during an interview on The Howard Stern Show.
“There were very curious things taking place,” Usher said as he recalled moving to New York City in 1994.
As Stern probed Usher to speak more about the then-alleged wild parties, he wasn’t as open as his experience with what he saw.
“I got a chance to see some things,” Usher said. “I went there to see the lifestyle—and I saw it.”
“I don’t know if I could indulge and understand what I was even looking at,” he continued. “It was pretty wild.”
As the news continues to grow surrounding the alleged crimes that Diddy committed over the years, fans noticed that Usher scrubbed every post on his X account just days after Diddy was arrested on September 22nd.
After fans took notice, Usher claimed that his X account was hacked.
“Account got hacked and damn y’all ran with it! 😂😂😂 See you tonight at Intuit Dome ✌️🏾👀✌️🏾,” he tweeted.
Diddy’s trial is slated for October 9th.
