In the latest episode of his podcast, “Collect Call with Suge Knight,” the former Death Row CEO, Suge Knight, dropped some shocking allegations. According to Knight, Diddy has been serving as an FBI informant for an extended period of time, a claim that has sent ripples throughout the hip-hop community.
Knight’s bold statements, made on the June 6 episode, shed light on what he perceives as common knowledge within the industry. He asserted that Diddy’s role as an informant has been widely acknowledged for years.
“It’s a lot of things that people been knowing, and everybody gets judged differently,” Knight stated at the 12:15 mark of the podcast. “It shouldn’t be a grey area when it comes to doing something right, doing something positive, or doing something for the community. That being said, naturally, Puffy been an FBI informant forever, as they would say. That’s why it’s different when it comes to him.”
Furthermore, Knight emphasized that the knowledge of Diddy’s alleged cooperation with the FBI was not limited to a select few. “Regardless of who gets hurt, all everybody been saying is ‘Puffy, Puffy, Puffy.’ I think they shouldn’t all blame everything on Puffy. His exes in the industry knew about it. Everybody in his crew knew about it. The bitches he dates knew about it. Everybody knew about it. So don’t push away from it now.” Knight added.
Despite these allegations, Knight stated that he still supports Diddy, especially amid the numerous se*ual assault allegations that have surfaced against him.
This isn’t the first time Knight has expressed his solidarity with Diddy. In the recently released Tubi documentary TMZ Presents: The Downfall of Diddy, Knight, speaking from prison, shared his thoughts on the matter.
“My reaction was actually different because the first thing that came to my mind was: he has his sons, he has his daughters. My reaction was first about the kids. The thing is, I feel it’s a bad day for Hip Hop. It’s a bad day for the culture because it makes us all look bad.”
I’m not the type of guy to cheer for other people’s downfall. If somebody got killed or something happens to them, then I’m not going to pop champagne bottles. If I have a problem with Puffy, that’s for he and I to sit down in a room and resolve it.
So for the tragedy on both sides, to the victims, to him, that’s definitely nothing to cheer about.”
These recent revelations have sparked significant discussions within the hip-hop community, highlighting the complexities and challenges faced by some of its most prominent figures.
