Are New Federal Charges Imminent Against Diddy  Sean “Diddy” Combs has spent decades as a dominant figure in the music industry, but today, his name resonates far beyond the boundaries of entertainment. Now, under the harsh lights of federal scrutiny, the rap mogul is facing an expanding legal nightmare that could result in a life sentence. Federal prosecutors revealed in a brief court session that new charges may be imminent, as investigations continue to unearth disturbing allegations against Combs. The possibility of a superseding indictment, casually mentioned during the hearing, underscores the gravity of the accusations and the intense investigation unfolding behind closed doors. At the heart of the federal case against Combs are allegations of coercion, exploitation, and trafficking. According to prosecutors, Combs orchestrated elaborate “freak offs,” marathon sexual encounters involving both men and women—some of whom were allegedly minors. Victims were reportedly drugged, confined, and threatened with violence to ensure compliance. These claims, which paint a grim picture of abuse and manipulation, are part of a sprawling investigation that has already resulted in dozens of civil lawsuits and criminal charges against the music mogul. In today’s hearing, Assistant U.S. Attorney Emily Johnson stated that while the government is not planning to alter the trial date, additional charges “will have little discovery information.” This revelation was delivered amidst ongoing disputes over the exchange of evidence, with the prosecution promising to expedite materials to Combs’ defense team. Judge Arun Subramanian presided over the proceedings, where Combs made his now-customary court appearance, greeting the judge briefly before the 19-minute hearing began. Notably absent this time was Combs’ mother, though several of his children were present in the courtroom. The current charges, including racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution, stem from Combs’ September arrest in New York City. Since then, he has remained behind bars in the Metropolitan Detention Center, a facility notorious for its harsh conditions. Combs’ repeated bids for bail have been denied, including a $50 million bond proposal that included stringent conditions such as home confinement under private security. Prosecutors have argued that Combs poses a significant flight risk and cited evidence of alleged obstruction attempts, including efforts to bribe or discredit government witnesses. These allegations of obstruction took center stage during the hearing, with the prosecution detailing claims that Combs had tried to use other inmates’ phone time to avoid monitored calls. Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik also highlighted seized documents from a routine jail security sweep, alleging that they contained evidence of further obstruction. Defense attorneys pushed back, asserting that the documents were improperly obtained and contained no privileged information. In a small victory for the defense, Judge Subramanian ordered the destruction of all copies of the seized materials and barred jail officials from sharing Combs’ attorney visit forms with the prosecution. The looming trial, set to begin on May 5, 2025, promises to be a pivotal moment in this high-profile case. As both sides prepare, even the logistics of trial preparation have become a point of contention. Combs’ access to a defense laptop, crucial for reviewing case materials, was recently limited to specific hours within the detention center. While the defense decried these restrictions as an impediment to justice, the judge’s ruling aims to balance security concerns with the defendant’s right to a fair trial. Beyond the criminal charges, Combs is also grappling with a flood of civil lawsuits, many spearheaded by Texas attorney Tony Buzbee. These lawsuits amplify the allegations of abuse and have implicated other prominent figures, including Jay-Z. In one refiled case, both Combs and Jay-Z are accused of assaulting a 13-year-old girl at a party following the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards. While Jay-Z’s legal team has dismissed the case as a “sham,” the allegations highlight the broader cultural reckoning within the entertainment industry. One of the most pivotal moments in this legal saga traces back to November 2023, when Combs’ ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura filed a civil lawsuit accusing him of rape and abuse. The lawsuit’s claims were bolstered by leaked footage showing Combs assaulting Ventura in a Los Angeles hotel hallway in 2016. Although Combs quickly settled with Ventura for an estimated $30 million, the fallout from the video reignited public scrutiny and spurred further investigations. Prosecutors have denied any involvement in the leak, which the defense argues prejudiced public opinion against their client. As federal investigators dig deeper, the implications of this case extend far beyond Combs himself. The allegations have forced a broader conversation about power, privilege, and accountability within the entertainment industry. The potential for new charges adds another layer of complexity to a trial that already promises to be one of the most closely watched in recent memory. With the next pre-trial hearing scheduled for March 17, all eyes remain on the courtroom and the broader revelations that may still emerge. The once untouchable mogul now faces the fight of his life, with the specter of life imprisonment looming large. For the alleged victims, the trial represents a long-awaited opportunity for justice. For Sean “Diddy” Combs, it is a stark reckoning with a past that he has vehemently denied, but one that may yet define his legacy.    Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Inside The War Between Jay-Z & Attorney Accusing Him Of Rape, Tony Buzbee  The High-Stakes Legal Battle: Tony Buzbee vs. Music Moguls It began with allegations that were shocking even in an era saturated with sensational headlines. Sean “Diddy” Combs, already imprisoned under federal charges of sex trafficking and racketeering, and Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter, one of the most influential figures in music, now find themselves at the center of child rape accusations. The man leading the charge? Tony Buzbee, a Texas trial lawyer with a reputation as polarizing as it is formidable. Buzbee’s Legal Offensive Buzbee’s involvement has turned this case into a legal maelstrom, one that has captivated both the public and the media. Known for his unrelenting pursuit of justice, Buzbee has accused not just the music moguls but also Jay-Z’s entertainment company, Roc Nation, of conspiring to sabotage his credibility. He alleges that Roc Nation paid some of his former clients to file lawsuits against him, a claim he asserts is backed by evidence. The accusations against Jay-Z and Diddy, first filed in October, are staggering in their implications. An unnamed woman claims that the two men sexually assaulted her in 2000 when she was only 13 years old. Jay-Z has publicly denied the allegations, calling them baseless and accusing Buzbee of opportunism. Carter’s legal team, led by Alex Spiro, has alleged that Buzbee is pressuring potential clients to make false claims. Buzbee, in turn, has dismissed these allegations as an attempt to distract from the severity of the rape accusations. Mounting Legal Challenges for Diddy Diddy’s existing legal troubles add another layer of complexity. The federal charges against him involve over 200 accusers—men and women—represented by Buzbee. These allegations, ranging from sexual abuse to human trafficking, have already tarnished Diddy’s once-glittering reputation. Buzbee’s pursuit of justice in this case has been marked by public appeals to potential victims, with hotlines and press conferences designed to bring more accusers forward. Tony Buzbee’s Controversial Career For Buzbee, this case is the latest chapter in a career defined by high-profile legal battles. From his humble beginnings as the son of a butcher and a cafeteria worker in small-town Texas to his rise as a trial lawyer, Buzbee has built a reputation as both a champion for the underdog and a lightning rod for controversy. His career milestones include winning $75 million against Transocean Ltd., securing billions from BP after the Deepwater Horizon spill, and representing victims in the Travis Scott Astroworld tragedy. Yet, Buzbee’s history is not without blemish. Recent lawsuits from former clients allege unethical behavior and fraud, claims that Buzbee vehemently denies. One particularly damaging accusation came from a former female client who alleged assault and malpractice during her divorce proceedings. While Buzbee has dismissed the claims as fabricated, their timing has fueled speculation about whether they’re part of a broader effort to undermine him. Jay-Z’s Counteroffensive Jay-Z’s counteroffensive against Buzbee has been equally dramatic. In addition to his public denouncements, Carter has filed his own lawsuit, accusing Buzbee of extortion and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The case’s stakes have grown exponentially, with each side accusing the other of deceit and coercion. Jay-Z’s team has alleged that Buzbee added his name to the original lawsuit only after Carter refused to settle, a claim Buzbee denies. A Larger-Than-Life Figure Adding to the already convoluted landscape is Buzbee’s controversial past outside the courtroom. The attorney, who famously once parked a Sherman tank outside his Houston mansion, has long been a larger-than-life figure. He has represented an array of high-profile clients and made waves in the legal community with his blunt approach and unrelenting tactics. Despite his successes, he has faced criticism for what some see as self-promotion and ostentation. One of Buzbee’s most notable cases involved the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010, where he represented over 10,000 clients impacted by the environmental disaster. The settlements from that case were in the billions, solidifying his reputation as a powerhouse in class-action litigation. However, critics argue that his aggressive style often borders on the excessive, with detractors labeling him a “showman” more interested in personal fame than justice. Public Reactions and Media Scrutiny Beyond his professional life, Buzbee’s personal controversies have added fuel to the fire. In one particularly infamous incident, a woman on a date with him allegedly caused damage to artwork in his home, including two Andy Warhol paintings. The case, while ultimately dismissed, added to the narrative of Buzbee as a magnet for drama. Meanwhile, the media frenzy surrounding the case has cast a spotlight on Jay-Z’s carefully curated public image. Known as a self-made billionaire who rose from Brooklyn’s Marcy Projects, Carter has built an empire spanning music, fashion, and business. His defenders argue that the allegations are an affront to his legacy, while critics contend that no amount of success should exempt him from scrutiny. Diddy’s situation is arguably more precarious. The sheer volume of accusations against him, coupled with his ongoing federal charges, has led to widespread speculation about his future. While he has categorically denied all allegations, the cases have already caused significant damage to his reputation and brand. Companies and collaborators have distanced themselves, leaving his once-thriving empire in jeopardy. The High Stakes for All Involved As the legal proceedings continue, the stakes for all parties involved remain high. For Buzbee, this case represents both an opportunity and a risk. A victory could further cement his status as one of the nation’s top trial lawyers, while a loss or misstep could tarnish his career. For Jay-Z and Diddy, the allegations threaten not only their personal reputations but also the legacies they have spent decades building. The public’s fascination with the case shows no signs of waning. Social media is awash with debates, with supporters and detractors of all sides voicing their opinions. The court of public opinion, however, is far from unanimous. Some view the case as a critical reckoning for powerful figures, while others see it as a legal circus driven by greed and opportunism. Ultimately, this case is about more than just the high-profile names involved. At its heart are the voices of alleged victims, whose pursuit of justice has been overshadowed by the spectacle of the legal battle. As new revelations continue to emerge, the question remains: will justice prevail, or will the truth be lost amid the noise? What lies ahead is uncertain, but one thing is clear: this case will leave an indelible mark on all involved. The coming months are likely to bring much-needed clarity to this tangled web of allegations and counterclaims. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

A Quarter Century Ago Jay-Z & Diddy Allegedly Raped A 13 Year Old, How Does She Prove It? What happens when allegations from decades ago come knocking on the doors of music moguls? In this episode, the focus shifts to the civil accusations against Jay-Z, who vehemently denies any involvement in alleged misconduct while challenging his accusers to pursue criminal charges. With the statute of limitations closing that door, the case unfolds in the realm of civil litigation instead. Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke weighs in, peeling back the layers of false memories, long-lost evidence, and the weight of accusations that could topple entire empires. Can credible proof emerge from hazy recollections and old photographs, or is this just another chapter in a saga of he-said-they-said?

The Legal Connection No One Saw Coming It was an unexpected twist that no one saw coming, the kind that leaves you re-reading the headline just to confirm it isn’t satire: The lawyers for accused killer Luigi Mangione and embattled music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs are married. Two men, worlds apart in their alleged crimes, somehow tied together by a high-powered husband-and-wife legal team. The news landed like a grenade in the quiet corners of the legal world, a surreal connection linking two of the most sensational cases currently dominating headlines across the country. A Reputation Built in Courtrooms Karen Friedman-Agnifilo, a name well-known in New York’s legal circles, stepped into the spotlight again when she was retained to represent Mangione, the man accused of gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Just as heads were spinning from the magnitude of that case, another revelation surfaced: Friedman-Agnifilo’s husband, Marc Agnifilo, is one of the lead attorneys representing Sean Combs, who faces a barrage of federal charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering. Suddenly, two of the nation’s most closely watched cases had an unexpected overlap, a professional connection that no one could have predicted. Friedman-Agnifilo’s name alone carries weight in Manhattan courtrooms. For years, she served as the head of the sex crimes unit under District Attorney Cyrus Vance. Her no-nonsense approach earned her a formidable reputation as a prosecutor who didn’t shy away from high-profile cases. In fact, her time in public service reads like a who’s-who of New York City’s most notorious cases. From prosecuting brutal assaults to unmasking white-collar predators, her work became a hallmark of the city’s justice system. But in 2021, she made a surprising career move, stepping down from public service to join her husband’s private law firm, Agnifilo Intrater LLP. It was a decision that drew attention at the time, especially given her role in prosecuting sex crimes and her husband’s high-profile defense of individuals accused of similar misconduct. The irony of that career shift was not lost on many, but it cemented her reputation as a powerful advocate—no matter which side of the courtroom she stood on. Their professional partnership hasn’t come without complications. During her time as a prosecutor, Friedman-Agnifilo was forced to recuse herself from cases when her husband represented defendants. Perhaps most notably, she stepped aside during Harvey Weinstein’s rape prosecution after Weinstein retained representation from her husband’s firm. The spotlight on such decisions created waves of debate within legal circles—where exactly do you draw the line when work and personal relationships collide? Such instances underscored the delicate balance between their personal and professional lives—a balance now playing out on an even bigger stage with Mangione and Combs. The Case Against Luigi Mangione For Luigi Mangione, the stakes couldn’t be higher. The 26-year-old University of Pennsylvania graduate faces a barrage of charges after allegedly shooting and killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside the Hilton Hotel on Sixth Avenue. The attack happened on December 4, just as the healthcare giant’s parent company was hosting its annual investor conference. The brazen act shocked the city, turning Thompson’s killing into a moment of nationwide reckoning. A corporate leader, gunned down in public, during an event meant to celebrate one of America’s largest healthcare organizations. The shockwave rippled far beyond the walls of UnitedHealthcare, raising questions about security, public safety, and Mangione’s still-unclear motivations. Law enforcement launched into overdrive, setting off a manhunt that would dominate news cycles for days. Police pursued leads across state lines until Mangione was finally cornered in the most unassuming of places: a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania. His arrest was the kind of anticlimactic moment that feels ripped from a script—a fugitive on the run, brought down by an eagle-eyed fast-food worker. Yet, despite the arrest, the investigation raised more questions than answers, including why Mangione allegedly targeted UnitedHealthcare, how he learned of the investor conference, and whether the attack was driven by personal grievances, broader ideology, or a more chaotic rationale. While Mangione has pleaded not guilty, investigators have uncovered unsettling details about his alleged motives. Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny stated that Mangione had prior knowledge of UnitedHealthcare’s investor conference and had referenced the company in a note found when he was arrested. Yet, despite Mangione’s alleged fixation, there’s no indication he was ever a client of UnitedHealthcare. This curious detail raises broader questions: Why UnitedHealthcare? Was Thompson a specific target, or was the company itself symbolic of something larger in Mangione’s mind? As those threads are pulled, investigators continue to search for clues, leaving many wondering whether this was an act of premeditated calculation or something more chaotic. The Fall of Sean “Diddy” Combs Meanwhile, 160 miles away in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center, Sean “Diddy” Combs sits behind bars. Once regarded as one of music’s most untouchable figures, Combs now faces a litany of charges that threaten to dismantle the empire he spent decades building. Sex trafficking by force, racketeering conspiracy, and prostitution charges are just the tip of the legal iceberg. The sheer gravity of the allegations has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry, forcing a reckoning about power and accountability in celebrity culture. Combs, for his part, has pleaded not guilty to all charges and remains steadfast in his defense. Marc Agnifilo, Diddy’s lead attorney, has his hands full navigating the fallout from these mounting accusations. Known for his unflappable demeanor and strategic courtroom tactics, Agnifilo now faces the arduous task of dismantling a case that grows stronger with each new allegation. His work on Combs’ case stands as a stark contrast to his wife’s role in Mangione’s defense. Together, the Agnifilos find themselves at the center of two of the most polarizing cases in the country, their marriage now under the microscope as much as their clients. Every decision they make—every strategy they employ—is scrutinized by an increasingly curious public. What Lies Ahead? Public reaction to this unexpected connection has been swift and incredulous. Social media erupted as word spread of the Agnifilos’ dual involvement, with commentators expressing everything from shock to outright suspicion. How could two seemingly unrelated cases converge in such an intimate way? Was it simply coincidence, or does it say something deeper about the small, intertwined world of elite legal defense? The fact that these cases are happening in tandem—with lawyers who share not only a firm but a home—has added a surreal element to an already extraordinary series of events. What happens next in these cases remains to be seen. For Mangione, extradition proceedings continue as he awaits his day in court. For Diddy, the countdown to trial looms large, with every new revelation fueling further scrutiny. In both cases, the stakes couldn’t be higher, and for the Agnifilos, their clients’ futures rest squarely in their hands. The legal world is no stranger to strange bedfellows, but even by those standards, this professional overlap feels surreal. Two cases, two clients, two lawyers—and one marriage that now links it all together. A shocking coincidence? Perhaps. A curious twist of fate? Undoubtedly. What began as shocking headlines now unfolds as a story of unexpected intersections and public fascination. And as these two cases march forward, the public can’t help but watch—waiting for the next twist in a story that only seems to grow more unbelievable with each passing day.

Is it fair to call it guilt by association, or does willingly collaborating with known predators speak volumes about their integrity? With fame, money, and power in play, how much of their past behavior can be chalked up to a "calculated risk"? In this episode, psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott dives deep into the psychological and societal implications of such associations. But it all circles back to one critical question: When does ambition cross the line into complicity? #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #ShavaunScott #CelebrityScandals #RKelly #JayZ #GuiltByAssociation Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

What Did Jay-Z Know About Diddy Before Charges? What happens when the glittering facade of fame starts to crack, exposing allegations that shock the very core of public trust? The hip-hop world is no stranger to controversy, but recent allegations against icons like Diddy and Jay-Z take things to a whole new level. A disturbing claim of a 13-year-old being raped and drugged at an afterparty back in 2000 casts a shadow too dark to ignore. Even with staunch denials, questions about culpability, morality, and the price of association loom large. Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott dives into the psychology behind these allegations, exploring the impact on victims, the accused, and even the children caught in the whirlwind. Are fame and fortune blinding enough to excuse questionable associations? And what kind of ripple effect do these claims have on the culture that idolizes these figures? How far can someone’s reputation fall before they hit rock bottom? #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #Diddy #JayZ #PsychologyOfCrime #CelebrityCulture #Allegations Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

The family of Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, had reported him missing weeks before the incident and helped identify him from surveillance footage, according to law enforcement sources. Mangione, 26, is charged with second-degree murder for the targeted shooting of Thompson in New York City. The attack, believed to be motivated by Thompson’s role in the health insurance industry, occurred during an ambush-style assault that launched a nationwide manhunt. A missing persons flyer revealed Mangione’s family reported him missing to San Francisco police on November 18, stating they last spoke with him on July 1. The family said he had been working in San Francisco before losing contact. The breakthrough in the case came after San Francisco police linked Mangione to surveillance photos widely distributed following the killing. The images showed a person of interest tied to the crime, prompting a $60,000 reward for information. San Francisco police tipped off the FBI on December 6, believing Mangione resembled the man in the images. Two days later, they contacted Mangione’s mother, who told investigators she thought the person in the photos could be her son. Mangione was arrested on December 9 in Altoona, Pennsylvania, after being recognized at a McDonald’s restaurant. NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny revealed that the murder weapon was recovered and matched ballistically to the crime scene. Shell casings found near Thompson’s body contained the words "deny,” “delay,” and “depose,” echoing grievances often voiced against the health insurance industry. Police also found a handwritten document referencing the healthcare sector. While Mangione and his family were not insured by UnitedHealthcare, investigators believe the company was targeted because of its prominence in the industry. Thompson’s death ignited widespread outrage, with some venting frustrations at the U.S. healthcare system through online posts and “wanted” posters targeting other CEOs. Andrew Witty, CEO of UnitedHealth Group, defended the company in an op-ed in The New York Times, acknowledging flaws in the healthcare system but emphasizing UnitedHealth’s commitment to improvement. “The health care system in the U.S. does not work as well as it should,” Witty wrote, “but our company strives to make it better.” Mangione remains in a Pennsylvania jail on gun and forgery charges and is contesting extradition to New York. His attorney, Thomas Dickey, stated that Mangione would plead not guilty to all charges. “I have not seen one scintilla, one speck, one drop of any evidence yet,” Dickey said. Mangione’s family issued a statement expressing their shock and prayers for Thompson’s family, as well as for Mangione. “Our family is shocked and devastated by Luigi’s arrest. We offer our prayers to the family of Brian Thompson, and we ask that people pray for Luigi,” the statement read. Mangione recently retained Karen Friedman Agnifilo, a high-profile New York defense attorney and former top Manhattan prosecutor. Her husband, Marc Agnifilo, is representing Sean “Diddy” Combs in a separate federal case. This legal pairing highlights the couple’s influence in the New York legal scene, with Friedman Agnifilo joining her husband’s firm earlier this month. #CEOTragedy #HealthcareCrisis #LuigiMangione #BrianThompson #LegalDefense #InsuranceIndustry #PublicOutcry Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Jay-Z, Diddy Deny Sexual Assault Allegations as Accuser Admits Inconsistencies Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs are pushing back against serious allegations of sexual assault made by a woman who claims the two attacked her when she was 13 at an after-party for the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards. The woman, whose identity has not been revealed, admitted to inconsistencies in her story, though she stands by her allegations. The woman alleged she was driven from Rochester, New York, to New York City for the VMAs and later attended an after-party. According to her, she was offered a ride by Combs’ limousine driver and arrived at the party, where she spoke with musicians Benji Madden and his brother. She claimed she was drugged at the party and later sexually assaulted by Jay-Z, Combs, and an unnamed celebrity. The story has drawn skepticism after representatives for the Madden brothers confirmed they were on tour in the Midwest during the VMAs. Additionally, the woman’s father said he doesn’t recall the more than five-hour drive home from New York City, casting further doubt on her account. Jay-Z, whose legal name is Shawn Carter, responded firmly in a statement, criticizing Tony Buzbee, the woman’s attorney. “This incident didn’t happen and yet he filed it in court and doubled down in the press,” he said. “True Justice is coming. We fight FROM victory, not FOR victory. This was over before it began. This 1-800 lawyer doesn’t realize it yet, but, soon.” Buzbee, a Houston-based personal injury lawyer representing 120 alleged victims of sexual misconduct against Combs, defended his actions, stating that it is his team’s responsibility to investigate any new claims as they arise. He previously denied accusations of blackmail by Jay-Z, calling such claims “stupid and laughable.” Combs, currently awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges, also denied the allegations through his attorney, Teny R. Geragos. “Yesterday, a lawyer admitted that over 50 people falsely claimed to be victims. Today, for the second time this week, a Buzbee plaintiff has been exposed. This is the beginning of the end of this shameful money grab,” Geragos said. The woman’s original lawsuit accused Combs of sexual assault, but she amended it last week to include Jay-Z. She admitted to making “some mistakes” in recalling events but insisted the core of her story remains true. According to her lawsuit, she was made to sign a nondisclosure agreement while in the limousine before being drugged at the party. She claims the assault occurred in a bedroom where she had gone to rest. Jay-Z’s attorney, Alex Spiro, has filed a motion to dismiss the case, calling it “stunning” that such a serious complaint would be filed without proper vetting. “It is stunning that a lawyer would not only file such a serious complaint without proper vetting but would make things worse by further peddling this false story in the press,” Spiro said. Both Jay-Z and Combs are icons of the hip-hop world, credited with building vast empires that extend far beyond music. Jay-Z, with an estimated net worth of $2.5 billion, has been a major figure in the industry, collaborating with Combs on music and business ventures over the years. The legal challenges come as Combs faces mounting accusations, with Buzbee’s firm filing numerous lawsuits and establishing a toll-free hotline for alleged victims. Combs, who has pleaded not guilty to federal charges, was denied bail for the third time and is set to face trial in May. As the legal battles unfold, the allegations raise questions about the legitimacy of the claims and the broader wave of lawsuits filed against high-profile figures in the entertainment industry. #JayZ #Diddy #SexualAssault #MTVVMAs #TonyBuzbee #HipHopNews #LegalBattles Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
