Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs and 50 Cent have never been close and the In Da Club hitmaker has now revealed why the Bad Boy Records founder made him feel so ‘uncomfortable’
Rapper 50 Cent has revealed the moment his relationship with Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs soured as the Bad Boy Records founder made him feel “uncomfortable”.
While the pair have never been close friends, there was no drama between them when they first started out in the industry. However, that all changed in the early 2000s.
After an awkward encounter, 50 Cent, whose real name is Curtis James Jackson III, realized he no longer wanted to be associated with P Diddy. He explained: “He asked to take me shopping.”
“I thought that was the weirdest s— in the world because that might be something that a man says to a woman,” he added in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “And I’m just like, ‘Naw, I’m not f—— with this weird energy or weird s—,’ coming off the way he was just moving.”
The rapper continued: “From that, I wasn’t comfortable around him.” He also recently spoke about why he never attended any of P Diddy’s parties.
The 54-year-old rapper’s wild parties have come under scrutiny following his arrest last month after a raid on his mansions found supplies for “freak offs”. Prosecutors have said the raids uncovered items such as 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lube.
Diddy has been charged with racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, and transportation to engage in prostitution. He has denied all of the charges.
During an appearance on The Enthusiast Podcast, 50 Cent spoke about the parties and claimed: “I also didn’t participate. I also didn’t go to those parties. So a lot of the celebrity culture that you don’t hear saying anything is because they participated to a degree.”
When asked why he didn’t go, 50 Cent said: “I’m just not with all that freaky s—. Like, all of the stuff he’s doing, I’m not into that type of stuff. I’m just a little more, maybe you could say, basic or normal.”
