Lord Jamar alleges Diddy is part of the mafia but not the Godfather: 'That’s who Puffy is'

In a recent interview on 'The Art of Dialogue' YouTube channel, DJ and rapper Lord Jamar made bold claims regarding Diddy's alleged involvement in what he called the "Gay Mafia" within the hip hop industry. 

When asked if he believed that a "gay mafia" existed in hip hop, Lord Jamar responded, “This is part of it. You just saw one of the gay mafia members. That’s who he is, that’s who Puffy is. He is one of the members of the mob. He’s a mafia member. But he might not be the Don Carl, he is not the godfather. He is one of the heads of the family.”

Lord Jamar also referenced Diddy’s liquor brands, DeLeón Tequila and Ciroc Vodka, suggesting that Diddy's legal troubles began after he “got a little too big for his britches” and sued the liquor company. 

The interview comes nearly 20 days after Diddy, whose real name is Sean Combs, was indicted on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and fraud.

Further in the interview, Lord Jamar hinted that Jay-Z could be the next high-profile figure to come under scrutiny, remarking, "You know, I will say that Jay-Z, if he was doing ill like that, he was more quiet about it. You know what I mean? But then, if we are real with ourselves, it was kinda abnormal when he got with Beyoncé. She was pretty young when he got with her."

These statements from Lord Jamar sparked a social media frenzy, with users recalling disturbing allegations from Kim Porter's memoir, which claimed Diddy was involved in child sexual abuse. Porter, who shared four children with Diddy, reportedly kept a diary that detailed her allegations. 

According to the 'Daily Mail', portions of her diary were published by author Chris Todd (pseudonym Jamal T. Millwood) in a book that became an Amazon bestseller. These claims, however, were never substantiated, and neither Diddy nor his legal team has addressed them.

As Diddy's legal troubles mount, with a court hearing scheduled for October 9, 2024, his lawyers have continuously sought his release. However, the judge has denied bail, citing that Diddy is a “flight risk,” as claimed by the prosecution.
