‘He does all the shit’: One of P Diddy’s dirty money cronies shares praise for him despite his legal troubles

Sean Combs (aka P. Diddy) remains incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn after his arrest in New York in September most of it famous friends remain silent. Few stars have seen fit to comment on Combs’ legal woes, which include various allegations and a litany of lawsuits. Diddy – Dirty Money alum Kalenna Harper shared praise for her former collaborator. She also shared some candid thoughts about the rumors about Combs’ identity.

The 42-year-old singer recently gave an extensive interview, during which she talked about her life, career and much more. As she spoke to Breakbeat Media, P Diddy chimed in early in the conversation. Kalenna Harper admitted that, aside from marriage and motherhood, her time as part of Diddy’s aforementioned trio was some of the best of her life. She then moved on to discuss what she liked about founder Sean John:

Damn Sean Combs is larger than life. I mean, first of all, Sean has always been someone I wanted to be like. He has always inspired me as a black man with his voice. He’s larger than life, he gets what he wants, he puts in the effort, he’s a hard worker. So, before meeting Puff, it all came down to him being big enough to see it. Not work ethic, but real talent. And he’s great at making that stand out from the crowd, but he’s also great at making you realize it. He has no problem getting a party going, promoting a studio, or just being the energy. He’s that guy. He makes everything look like crap. Like you: “Wait, I’m running out of energy.” That’s it, come on. Let’s wake up. He’s that guy. He’s coffee. He is cocaine – white, pure cocaine – for everything that flies. He is like that.

Philadelphia native Kalenna Harper joined Diddy – Dirty Money along with Sean Combs and Dawn Richard upon its formation in 2009. The group eventually signed with Combs’ Bad Boy Records. Over time, the trio achieved success, thanks in large part to their debut album Last Train to Paris, which included the hit single “Coming Home”. They released other tracks such as “Your Love” and “Ass on the Floor” before effectively calling it quits in 2012.

In the various lawsuits Sean Combs faces, plaintiffs have made claims about his identity. Some call him overbearing, and some even claim that he blacklisted them for not reaching consensus. In her interview, which can be viewed at YouTube, Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta the alum weighed in on Combs’ personality and how she reconciles it with her own experiences with him. She herself referred to “rumors” and clarified what she meant by saying the following:

(Rumor has it) he is a tyrant, he is a devil, he is evil, he is selfish and greedy. I’ve never heard it being quirky, but that’s the kind of vibe that comes with it. “Don’t joke around with it (racial slur) or your career will be over. He will block you forever.” I can’t say that this is not true, but my experience with him outweighed these rumors.

Sean Combs was arrested months after federal agents raided his homes as part of a sex trafficking investigation. During the searches, documents, instruments and bottles of lubricant were seized. Following his arrest, a 14-page indictment was released detailing allegations of sex trafficking and transportation for the purpose of prostitution, arson, racketeering and more. Even before the raids and arrests, Combs faces several lawsuitswith the first major one involving his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura. This lawsuit was settled less than 24 hours after it was filed. Just recently, Tony Buzbee, a Texas lawyer, confirmed that he is representing 120 people suing Diddy. Those costumes In recent weeks, claims of sexual assault, assault and more have gradually been filed against Combs, who has denied any wrongdoing.

Among those who filed a lawsuit against Diddy is Dawn Richard, who accused the “Come with Me” singer of sexually abusing her for more than a decade. During the interview, Kalenna Harper discussed Richard’s lawsuits, admitting that she was “angry and angry” about it. Harper regarded this as a “shot in the ribs” and reasoned that “if anything ever happened” to Richard, “all she had to do was say something.”

Cannon talked about partying with the tycoon in the early 2000s and said that he had “nothing to hide.” Discussing this issue, Ray J talks about the need for responsibility in the hip-hop community. Whether other stars will follow in the footsteps of Harper and others in talking about Diddy, whose trial is scheduled for May 2025, remains to be seen.
