From Flavor Camp to Scandal: Where Does Usher Fit In?

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1

What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the program.

Whenever there's a situation like the one we see with Ditty, it's inevitable that those that used to be close to him, or who might still be close to him, miraculously come down with amnesia that makes them not remember any of their time that they spend hanging out with insert diddler here.

And during our coverage of Jeffrey Epstein, I call that the Epstein amnesia effect, and the same thing is happening here when we're talking about Ditty, and today we're going to talk about somebody who looks like they are suffering from a severe case of Ditty amnesia, and that person is Usher Raymond.

Now, one thing that we do have to be cautious of is that Usher, at thirteen years old, went and lived with Ditty for a year.

So we have to be cognizant of the fact that Usher might have been abused by Ditty too.

Now I don't have any evidence of that, right, but when you have somebody like Ditty and there's all of these allegations coming from men and women, I don't think that you can discount anything at this point.

Now, obviously I'm not sold one way or the other until we have the evidence in front of us.

But it's not looking good for Ushure, especially considering he allegedly deleted a whole bunch of tweets, so he says that he was hacked.

But we all know how that goes.

Whenever there's a situation that makes you look stupid on the Internet and you find yourself caught up, first thing people say is, look, I was hacked.

Wasn't me?

I didn't do that.

I mean, look at Channon Sharp.

Recently, bro got caught on like Instagram Live or something in the midst of having a session, if you will, with a young lady, and then he tried to say that he was hacked as well.

Every single time you see somebody get caught up when it comes to the Internet, the first thing they say is, oh, look I was hacked.

And more times than not, when somebody says that they weren't hacked, they either said something stupid that they don't want to own, or they were involved in something stupid and they're trying to get rid of the evidence.

But before we dive into that portion of this story, why don't we go back in history a little bit and get a little bit of context about Usher's relationship with Ditty, and to do that, we have an article from People magazine headline.

Usher says he saw very curious things when he lived with Ditty for a year at thirteen in a twenty sixteen interview with Howard Stern.

Now, the fact that a thirteen year old boy is living with a twenty three year old man is crazy to me.

Why would he be living there in the first place.

The whole last music industry is filled with all kinds of disgusting predators, just like the modeling industry.

This article was authored by Elana Kaplan.

A twenty sixteen interview with Usher has resurfaced amid the raids on Sean Ditty COM's homes earlier this week.

The You Got a Bad Musician forty five appeared on The Howard Stern Show in twenty sixteen, where he opened up about his time living with Ditty for a year when he was thirteen years old.

Boy, I can only imagine somebody showing up at my house talking to my dad saying, hey, look, I know you don't know me really, but I think your son should come live with me for a year.

Talk about a surefire way to find yourself getting that fade real quick.

What sort of parent lets their kid go and live with some random dude at thirteen years old?

And I don't care what the reasoning is.

In my opinion, it's exploitation to the highest degree.

After Howard Stern wondered if it was La Reid's idea for Usher to live with Bad Boy Records founder fifty four, the R and B Star said that there were very curious things taking place during his time residing with Diddy in New York City.

Now, look, this is a thirteen year old boy.

Let's keep it in context, right, So was Usher also abused?

Very possible?

Very very possible.

Now he hasn't come out and said that, but we all know from our time covering the Epstein story that trauma is something that's very difficult to put your finger on.

Trauma doesn't affect everybody the same.

So I'm not gonna sit here and tell you one way or the other what happened to Usher or what did happen to Usher while he was with Diddy, But I will tell you this.

I guarantee you he was exposed to some shit that a thirteen year old should not be exposed to.

And even says that much in this Howard Stern interview.

I got a chance to see some things, Usher told Stern seventy, adding I went there to see the lifestyle, and I saw it.

He continued, I don't know if I could indulge and understand what I was even looking at.

It was pretty wild.

So how is this even okay for a thirteen year old boy to be exposed to?

It's not.

But here we are talking about Usher being exposed to all of this, Howard Stern interviewing him about it in twenty sixteen, like it's no big deal, not like we should be shocked because Howard Stern is probably a predator himself.

At this point.

I don't put up by any of these people.

Usher then recalled that there were famous artists like Biggie Small's, Little Kim Craig mac faith Evans and Mary J.

Bloe that we're also hanging around at the time.

When asked if he was staying up until four, I am partying with Ditty and his entourage, the air performer said he could and actually stayed up longer than them.

So there's a whole last lot to unpack here about Usher and this relationship with Ditty when he was a kid.

But I don't think we have enough details or enough context to really dive too deep yet.

But as we peel these layers of the onion back, it's going to continue to reveal more disturbing information and more ties that bind.

He described the experience as pretty crazy.

Asked if he would ever send his children to Puffy Camp, Usher declared, hell no, So what does that tell you?

Did he supposed to be this dude's great homie and he won't even send his own kids to the Ditty Camp.

That tells me everything I need to know about Ditty right there.

And I think as things continue to progress, we're gonna hear about a lot more disturbing stories when it comes to Ditty and perhaps Usher and I have a bad feeling about Justin Bieber.

As I say previously, Now again, just to be clear, I don't have any hard evidence to share with you to prove my point here.

This is just a hunch I'm going on from all of the stuff that we've read and the various core documents that we have dived deep into.

Because when all of that's added up, it's not looking good for Puffy at all.

And at this point, I think one of the main questions has to be who else was involved and at what level.

In February, he also opened up to people about his experiences at Diddy's Flavor Camp.

I can remember Outcast making their first records and being able to hear Rico work on these songs, literally sleeping in this man's living room, being in the dungeon, just kind of being around and just trying to figure out who's who.

He recalled.

Usher said that it wasn't about the music, but the energy and the hip hop artists were teaching me and showing me how to act and how to present myself.

Bro, this is damning.

They were teaching you how to act.

Huh.

So was it Harvey Pierre teaching you how to act?

Was it Diddy?

Was it one of these other diddlers?

What does that even mean?

Usher?

And I think that there's a very solid chance that we're going to hear that Usher gets subpoenud by the prosecution at some point because he was obviously close to Diddy.

He was around, he saw what was going down at least to some extent, So the investigators are certainly going to want to talk to Usher.

The question is what's Usher going to be able to offer up.

He also reminisced about meeting Diddy, who first invited him to come to New York to work on music.

I got a tutor, went to New York City, and he began to show me the ropes.

Usher told people some of the most valuable lessons I could ever learn as an entrepreneur, who were picked up when I spent time alone in New York with them.

This unwavering desire to create and make certain that your creative ideas are executed or that your human trafficking plans are put into play, one or the other, he continued.

I saw him in real time working it out, him building something from nothing, him understanding how culture and collaboration could build careers, being able to see that that's what I got.

Oh yeah, what else did you see?

Because nobody's believing it was all music and the history of hip hop being taught to you by these artists and these adults that were hanging around Diddy's house and speaking on all these adults, what sort of adult engages in any kind of CDAs behavior around children like what is wrong with you?

And speaking of underage children?

Mark my words there's gonna be allegations made by girls who say that they were underage when they allegedly were abused by Diddy.

We already have the one anonymous Jane.

Do you know there's going to be more.

He added that he was privy to experiencing the making of Notorious BIG's nineteen ninety four album Ready to Die.

Usher was watching it in real time, but he didn't understand the value of what he was getting in that time.

In two thousand and four, the eight time Grammy winner told Rolling Stone that I'll be missing you artist introduced him to a totally different set of shit sex specifically, so there you go, right there in his own words, saying that Diddy introduced him to this shit at thirteen years old.

So what are you doing showing a thirteen year old boy anything like this?

You know, it's one thing, right, you're the boy's uncle.

You want to show him a movie that shows some boobs or something.

Look, I get it right, Boys are going to be boys, especially this day and age, boys are going to look on the internet.

They're going to you know, people have access, But as an adult to have a party like this and have a thirteen year old boy around that have him involved, You're a piece of shit.

And anybody that was around partying while there's little kids around, while there's miners around, you're a piece of shit too.

Sex is hot the industry man, he explained, there was always girls around.

You'd open a door and see somebody doing it, or several people in a room having an orgy.

You never knew what was going to happen, So you don't think the investigators are going to want to talk to Usher.

And then, knowing all of this, how bad does it look for Usher that he allegedly deleted a bunch of tweets not looking good for your boy on Monday?

Did He's properties in Los Angeles and Miami were rated by federal agents Homeland Security Investigations confirmed to people.

So obviously this is an older article, but I just wanted to add some context about the Usher situation before we dive into the next article in the next episode, where we're going to dive into an article talking about those allegedly deleted tweets and other social media posts.

Earlier today, Homeland Security Investigations New York executed law enforcement actions as part of an ongoing investigation with assistants from HSI Los Angeles, HSI Miami and that our local law enforcement partners we will provide further information as it becomes available.

A Homeland Security Investigations representative told people in a statement these raids took place amid sex trafficking allegations into law lawsuits.

TMZ reported that federal cops arrived at the rappers lay home with helicopters above the property, while video from Fox eleven showed Diddy sons, Justin Colmbs thirty and Christian King Comb's twenty five in handcuffs outside of their Beverly Hills home.

Colmb's lawyer released a statement condemning the raids on Tuesday evening.

There was a gross overuse of military level force as search warrants were executed at mister Colmb's residences.

Set attorney Aaron Dyer in a statement to people, there is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or by the way his children and employees were treated.

Yeah, except for the three guns with obliterated serial numbers.

Kind of a big deal.

No, And if you were wondering why they used military type tactics there, it is this unprecedented ambush paired with an advanced coordinated media presence, leads to a premature rush to judgment of mister Comb's and is nothing more than a witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits.

Added dire, the statement concluded, there has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations.

Mister Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every single day to clear his name.

That statement shared in Agewell.

Huh, mister Combs is innocent.

There has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations.

Meanwhile, he paid out who knows how much, to Cassie already.

But as far as usher goes, he has some explaining to do.

And the whole my Twitter got hacked situation and excuse and narrative, I don't think it's going to cut it.

So in the next episode we're going to dive into another article talking about these alleged deleted tweets.

But that's gonna do it for this one.
