“I went through a lot in life and then one day I got that call from God. He said, ‘It’s time,’” he recalled in a recent interview. This was an opportunity for Combs will celebrate its return to the biggest music awards ceremony, the Grammys, after almost two decades. The last time she competed in the gala was in 2004, when Facebook had just been created as a social network.

Less than a week after the Recording Academy announced its nominees, including Diddy’s latest album, Serious accusations of sexual abuse arose against him. Singer Cassiewho was his partner and artist on his record label, filed an unexpected lawsuit last November accusing him of subjecting her to a decade of sexual and physical violence.
“During the years that Mr. Combs physically and sexually abused Ms. Ventura, she tried again and again to escape the tight control he had over her life,” the lawsuit stated.
The court documents indicated a violent behavior by Combs, given that “he was prone to uncontrollable anger, and frequently savagely beat Ms. Ventura,” but Diddy strongly denied the claims through his lawyer. The former couple reached an agreement two days later, but the singer’s ordeal was just beginning.
Almost immediately, as if it were a precedent on Cassie’s part, the rapper faced three successive additional lawsuits from women who claimed to have been sexually assaulted by him. The most recent of these accusations involved a woman who claims to have been the victim of a gang rape in 2003, when she was only 17 years old.
The situation has escalated to the point of taking Jennifer Lopez’s ex-partner to leave the presidency of REVOLT, the media company he founded in 2013. Additionally, the scandal caused the hip-hop mogul, for the first time, to speak out publicly in December to deny all allegations against him.
