Meek Mill is finally severing ties with his former friend Sean "Diddy" Combs as the music mogul prepares to fight the mounting sexual assault allegations in court.
On Wednesday, November 13, Meek appeared to distance himself from the Bad Boy Records founder in a video that was posted by Hood Report. In the brief clip, the Philly native dismissed his past with Combs and declared that he doesn't want to be associated with him.
"This real life," Meek said into the camera. "Yeah, n***a, 'No Diddy' gang. Meek Milly in real life. Don't ever disrespect me, you heard?"
Meek Mill and Combs used to be good friends back in the day. There are plenty of photos, videos and memes to prove how close they were. However, their relationship was heavily scrutinized in the months after the feds began to investigate The Love Album artist due to allegations made in several shocking lawsuits. Fans began to accuse Meek of being more than just friends with Combs earlier this year after Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones alluded to a sexual relationship between the artist and “a Philadelphia rapper who dated Nicki Minaj" in his lawsuit.
Since then, Meek has been inundated with jokes and fan theories about his relationship with Combs. The backlash became so overwhelming that Meek said his own son was "confused" about him.
“I don’t believe no Diddy story once they lied about me now!" Meek wrote on X in April. "Anybody try to sexually assault me it will be a bang out on the spot how yall don’t know that lol I don’t care but yall confusing my son he’s 12 with people saying his dad gay it’s sick now outchea so f**k it."
Following Combs' arrest in September, the discourse about Meek and his former friend grew louder. It got so bad that Meek was willing to pay $100,000 to anyone who could find a correlation between him and Combs' case in order to shut down all the rumors about him.
I wanna hire an investigative team 100k cash to find out every specific detail involving meek mill name to 'Diddy' Case," he wrote. "I also want them to look at who is powering the media involving 'meek anything to do with buddy! 'Something not right' ... The streets know wassup with me thats not the case….We talking about business side ,somebody powering these bad campaigns🤷🏾♂️ with 'meeek mill' again I got 100k for a thorough investigation of who’s powering and how exactly my name connect to this…"
It's obvious Meek is not messing with Combs anymore. Combs' son Justin also saw the video and offered his thoughts on the situation. See what he had to say below.
