AceShowbiz - Sean "P. Diddy" Combs seemingly cannot hide his worry amid his legal issues. The rapper and his friend Stevie J have been spotted on a tense golf cart ride in Miami, days after his homes were raided by the feds as part of sex trafficking investigation.
The embattled hip-hop mogul and the DJ hung out together in Miami Beach, Florida on Tuesday, April 2. In photos obtained by Daily Mail, the "I Need a Girl" hitmaker drove a golf cart with his longtime friend sitting next to him.
The Bad Boy Records founder and Stevie J were seen having a serious conversation during the ride. The 54-year-old dropped off his pal at the home and the pair were later seen speaking outside the compound's gates.
Stevie J was named in a lawsuit filed by Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones in February. He claims in the suit that Diddy "used access to Stevie J and his knowledge of Mr. Jones' admiration of Stevie J to groom and entice Mr. Jones to engage in homosexual acts."
Stevie J has branded the allegations against him "false" and has spoken in defense of Diddy. "I don't know what my, whatever someone does in their bedroom, that's what they do. I don't got nothing to do with that," he said in an interview with TMZ. "I'm just here to say that I've never seen my men doing anything foul they talking about." He went on insisting, "I've never seen it. I've known him for 28 years."
Stevie J also slammed 50 Cent who has been attacking Diddy amid the sex trafficking investigation, calling him "uncle Tom." He said of the "In Da Club" emcee, "He wants to bring the black community down worse than anyone else. Now, since he didn't accept my offer to him and he wanna continue being a comedian why don't you go make some movies with Michael Blackson and don't talk about me."
"I find it funny when they first try to crucify somebody, they'll go through the media first, and they're just flooded with lies and propaganda," he continued. "I'm not concerned about Curtis. He's Uncle Tom, and that's just what it is."
Stevie J, who was at Diddy's Miami home during the raid, said his pal is "devastated" and "hurt" by the raids, but he is "doing very well."
Diddy and Stevie J's latest outing comes amid reports that Cassie has been cooperating with authorities during the investigation. The singer, who settled her lawsuit against her ex-boyfriend in November 2023, is believed to have been in contact with federal investigators for several weeks, presumably even before Diddy's home were raided.
