The Notorious B.I.G. and Diddy (real name Sean Combs) took Hip Hop to unprecedented heights in the 90s, but even their rich history together isn’t enough for the late rapper’s mother to ignore the multiple sexual assault and rape allegations the latter is currently negotiating.
In a Rolling Stone article published on Thursday (May 30), Voletta Wallace shared her thoughts on the Bad Boy Records mogul getting caught assaulting his former partner Cassie on camera while discussing the lawsuits filed against him in recent months.
“I’m sick to my stomach,” she said. “I’m praying for Cassie. I’m praying for his mother. I don’t want to believe the things that I’ve heard, but I’ve seen [the hotel video]. I pray that he apologizes to her.
“I hope that I see Sean one day and the only thing I want to do is slap the daylights out of him. And you can quote me on that. Because I liked him. I didn’t want to believe all the awful things, but I’m so ashamed and embarrassed.”
She concluded: “He needs to apologize to his mother. I hope to God he sits her down and spills his guts and apologize to her.”
Following a six-month investigation by Rolling Stone that was published earlier this week, the businessman is facing even more allegations of violence and sexual harassment.
The story, compiled using interviews with more than 50 people connected to Diddy throughout his career, details how his alleged abusive behavior began during his time as a student at Howard University in the late 1980s.
The article describes an incident wherein he allegedly used a belt to strike a woman repeatedly, with an unnamed source saying: “[Puff] whupped her butt — like really whupped her butt.”
The report also alleges that the New York City native once beat up late Def Jam executive Shakir Stewart for dating his ex-girlfriend Kim Porter.
The incident allegedly took place in 2000 at LA Reid‘s wedding in Italy, where sources describe Puffy breaking a chair over his head and leaving him bleeding on a hotel floor. Stewart later committed suicide in 2008, while Porter (who shares three children with Puff) died of pneumonia in 2018.
The 54-year-old has also been accused of attacking a woman in Bad Boy’s office in 1994, resulting in two employees being forced to pull him away after hearing screams and the sound of smashing glass.
Another woman who worked for the label as a graphic designer claims he sexually harassed her in 2001 at a party celebrating his acquittal in the 1999 nightclub shooting, for which Shyne spent almost a decade in prison. She later found out that the record executive had allegedly approached her boss the night of the party to “solicit [her] for sex.”
“I felt quite unsettled about this for many years. When people ask me about my days at Bad Boy, it’s just overshadowed by his crap,” she said.
Additionally, the report also includes claims about Diddy’s relationships with other rappers, including that he was jealous of Biggie’s bond with 2Pac and did not “want that friendship to happen,” according to photographer Monique Bunn.
He apparently tried to build a bond with ‘Pac, but the Death Row MC “didn’t have any kind of respect for Puff” according to Bunn, who added that the rapper and actor saw him as a “corny executive.”
I wish I could see Biggie’s mom slapping “the daylights” out of Puffy even if it’s just in animation (cartoon) form. Lol.
Im astonished that people just now find out the true face of Puffy. Like Walleta didn’t know this beforehand.
Respectfully to Ms. Wallace, but without Puff forcing Big to do Juicy, he would’ve been just another nice NY rapper. And probably alive, but just another rapper.
Probably alive is a lot more important than being a famous rapper
That’s really what he needs. A real mother slapping him, twisting his ear, pinching his side, and saying “boy!! What the hell wrong with you!!!” Mamas get you in line
He would beat the shit out of women but would blow men. And if he did want another guy hurt-or worse- he would hire out for that. Textbook pussy.
Biggie used to do the same to faith and kim … and she knows it

Come off it…. I’m not having it she wasn’t aware of this twats behaviour.
Too bad she didn’t raise her own son to be a decent person instead of an obese drug dealer.
