336. What we can learn from P Diddy (as a D.I.Y. Rock Star)
(video: https://bit.ly/336pdiddyvid and podcast: https://bit.ly/336pdiddypod )
You MUST be living under a rock if you haven’t heard about the allegations against a “beloved” OG hip hop star, Puff Daddy (P Diddy or Sean “Diddy” Combs). THIS is what we have taken away from the whole mess.

On how we arrived at THIS topic:
We were “inspired” by many YouTube videos, but none that was more influential than another, so we’ll encourage you to Google the topic to come to your own conclusions.
What was our INITIAL response?
It made us sick to hear it. People should NOT be being abused. People should NOT let themselves be abused. How could this go on for 16 years—there MUST be so many people involved in participating in (parties, accommodations, turning a blind eye, law enforcement) and covering up the abuse (hotels, employees of P Diddy—esp. Staff Manager—law enforcement).
We thought R. Kelly and Jerry Epstein were bad—with their grooming underage girls to have sex with folks—but P. Diddy tops them ALL, because he physically abused, drugged, and threatened to shoot and/or share the sex tapes that he would make. AND there is an allegation that he poisoned Jamie Foxx, which accounted for that recent hospitalization and health scare from 2023. WTF?! Also, he shot some folks and blew up Kid Cudi’s car, according to what he allegedly bragged about with his crew.

More?!
Also, after the Cassie Ventura complaint, he was alleged to be calling potential witnesses —up to more than a hundred times in one day—to convince them to say something more in his favor.
They think it’s okay because…
I guess, the REASON we are SO big on generating the buzz on your own is so that you DON’T fall prey to this type of insanity and/or you can build your resolve, so as to be stronger as you NEED to be (as you grow along to new challenges). –If you evaluate EACH opportunity as it comes, hopefully, you will sidestep any that seem “too good to be true” or that come with a price that you AREN’T willing to pay.
