Well, it's not hard to discuss the situation. But with the street moxie that I have, that's not a conversation that I should have on a podcast. Some of these guys get on these podcasts and talk about so many things. I'm like, man, that's...
So that's why I'm here. I'm not here to actually talk about Puff and his allegations. I'm here to talk about a... different section of his allegations, the RICO Act. And what I feel to believe involves his mother, Janice Combs.
So the RICO Act is about holding people accountable for systematic actions. You know, these actions have caused financial hardship, emotional hardship with not only myself but other artists in the business through what I feel was fraudulent and coercive activity. And I think that Janice Combs falls under those guidelines.
Mace gives a very good example. So Mace has been, you know, going through what conflict he has with Puffy. And he makes a statement. He says, how can we talk about anything, et cetera, et cetera? Everything is in your mother's name.
I'm saying that I brought with me three multi platinum plaques of artists that I've had the opportunity to have my company write songs. And somehow his mother ended up with my publishing rights.
So I have here behind me, I have this right here. The Notorious B.I.G. Born Again. For Dion Best, for D and Mac Music.
Wow. So then we have here Black Rob's life story. Man, rest in peace, Black Rob. Black Rob was... He was an alright guy, man.
Third one here. This is Bad Boy Entertainment, Puffy's album, Forever.
So for me, here's where, you know... Things get a little tricky. I'm not going to say complicated. But during this time, I had a partnership, a partner in my company. And I felt, I still feel my partner betrayed me. I got caught with a, in possession of a handgun. And I went to prison for four years. And at that time, my partner signed some things over.
Yes, ma'am.
Allegedly.
So my law team, we've gotten together and discussed this. certain information and they feel that we need to move forward with following the RICO Act with Janice Combs. Puff's mother. Puff's mother.
So because all of my publishing rights went to Janice Cohn, we're going to file the RICO Act against Janice Cohn. And we'll see where this conspiracy and fraudulent activity leads us.
Again, I don't wanna touch on that. I'm here to discuss the RICO Act that we filed against Janice Combs, but I'll answer,
that question briefly so i don't take involvement in those parties i've never been to a sean combs or p diddy or pup daddy uh freak off party because those things are not of my interest with him i was more of i don't want to hang out with you in j-lo i don't want to party with you I need you to sign on the dotted line. I need my money. And that was my relationship with him.
Just as I can probably tell, you can probably tell the arrogance that Sean Combs possessed. And I just stayed away from that. I will say, For me, as a man, and growing up in Los Angeles, California, with the type of codes that we have to honor when you have gang affiliation surrounding you. The video of Cassie broke my heart. It was sad. I have two daughters, a mother, sisters, aunts.
But it's like, wow. You can kick on Cassie, but you don't want to stand up to Shug. You know, those were the things that crossed my mind.
Not surprised. Not at all. Not at all surprised. You know, when you have a relationship with the streets, it comes with a code. So we already know the number one code is no snitching. And though, you know, people still snitch. But... We have a code that you don't even want to see your worst enemy behind bars. Jail is not nice. It's no guarantee that you're going to come home from jail.
But there's also a code that follows under the no snitching clause. Man, you do the crime. You gotta do the time. You gotta be a stand up guy. You gotta go handle it.
No, none of that. I've been to... Again, here we are on Sunset. Let's say I was at the House of Blues with him one night. Casual night. Suits and ties. Blazers, slacks. But it was more... Professional. And other than that, I would rather hang out with Black Rob, Mace, of course, Biggie. I used to be around him when he dated J-Lo, Jennifer Lopez. It was just the attention.
