As Sean P Diddy Combs lies behind the jail cell, awaiting trial, several wild claims have been made about the now infamous rapper. From his alleged involvement in the death of his ex, Kim Porter, to his alleged involvement in the murder of Tupac Shakur, these unproven allegations and rumors continue to muddle his reputation even further.
Recently, rapper Uncle Luke too joined in this drama, by calling out Diddy, along with Kanye West and Jay-Z, making some shocking allegations about their involvement in the ‘villainization of the Black community.’
Uncle Luke’s Shocking Claims about Diddy Combs
As Sean P Diddy Combs’ legal troubles continue to mount, with each day bringing in a more shocking revelation, claims and rumors about him too show no signs of fading away anytime soon. While he battles the many cases against him, Uncle Luke is the latest to join in to make some appalling claims about the infamous rapper.
In an Instagram live (via livebitez), the rapper seemed to argue that the music industry has several mechanisms in place that make successful Black people look like the villains in popular culture while Diddy, along with artists like Kanye West and Jay-Z, play an active part in the working of such mechanisms.
You guys don’t know, that’s how America works. I, Luther Campbell, I am a villain. I’m a bad guy. That’s why when you look at my profile, ‘bad boy of hip-hop.’ I will never get into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Puff Daddy was not a villain, he was one of them. Kanye West was one of them. Jay-Z was one of them. Biggie Smalls, a villain. Tupac, a villain. We all are villains.
Pretty appalling words to say, Luke did not stop there but went on to warn the Black community against such people.
And until you people realize that as Black people in America, you are the villain. It’s black and white. You are the opposite of white. We will always be in competition with them. Y’all don’t hear me.
Although this isn’t the first time he has said something this controversial, his latest outburst has ignited a range of reactions across social media. While some netizens are praising his boldness, others have been calling his claims uncalled for and unnecessary.
Netizens React to Uncle Luke’s Bold Claims about Black Artists
Uncle Luke is known for being unabashed and outspoken, especially when it comes to the present events in the entertainment world. Earlier too during an Instagram live, he made claims that Diddy was being ‘targetted’ for suing the liquor company Diageo (via X). So when his latest claims went viral, netizens couldn’t help but comment on them.
Following his Instagram live, screen recordings of his live went viral on the internet. And this is how people reacted to it:
So, while most fans continue to berate Uncle Luke over his outrageous claims and Diddy continues to face his legal battles while behind bars, Luke seems as unapologetically bold as ever. As the Diddy drama unfolds, we can surely anticipate more such claims, rumors, and speculations—after all, in the entertainment industry, the dust never truly settles, does it?
