In a conversation with TMZ, Stevie J opened up about a heavy dialogue he had with Diddy following the release of a 2016 security footage. The clip depicts Diddy aggressively confronting Cassie in a hotel corridor, shocking both the public and those close to the music mogul.
Stevie J, known for his long-term collaboration with Diddy, expressed his surprise and hurt over the incident. He admitted, “I didn’t know he had that in him to do that,” reflecting on the unexpected nature of the violence displayed.
The incident not only shocked Stevie J but also seemed to devastate Diddy. As Stevie J recounted, Diddy was emotionally crushed by the video’s public exposure. The mogul lamented the fact that his daughters and mother would witness such a dark moment.
TMZ’s Harvey Levin pressed Stevie J on whether the video’s content or its release was more painful for Diddy. Stevie J noted it was both, citing Diddy’s disbelief at having to relive such a troubling period of his life with an ex-girlfriend.
The video serves as a stark reminder of a “dark place” in Diddy’s life—a time marked by substance abuse, as per Stevie J’s insights. Diddy himself mentioned in a since-deleted Instagram post, “I hit rock bottom,” while expressing deep regret.
Diddy faced allegations from Cassie in the past, which he had denied until the footage emerged. Contrition followed the video’s surfacing, leading to his public apology and subsequent efforts to embark on therapy and rehabilitation.
In his apology, Diddy took full accountability, stating, “I take full responsibility for my actions in that video. I’m disgusted then, and now.” His commitment to self-improvement was highlighted by his pursuit of therapy, marking a step towards being a better person each day.
The graphic content shows Diddy grabbing Cassie by the neck, throwing her down, and aggressively engaging with her belongings, all while clad in a towel. The disturbing altercation casts a long shadow over his public persona.
Stevie J’s revelations paint a somber picture of regret and the struggle for redemption in the face of public scrutiny.
