Diddy’s case is making headlines, even though his trial hasn’t happened yet. Everyone’s watching closely for new updates and reactions, especially from other artists who might be involved, but so far, they haven’t said much. In the meantime, the internet is buzzing with old interview clips of celebrities talking about the rapper and their connections to him.
Usher has been one of the hottest topics lately, especially due to his long-standing and personal relationship with the rapper. It seems that one of the plans was for the two of them to join forces with two other big names in the music industry to create a powerful musical group.

However, until a few months ago, Usher spoke openly about his relationship with the musician, even sharing what he witnessed when he lived at Diddy’s house. In an interview on theClub Shay Shay podcastearlier this year, when asked if he had ever turned down a collaboration, he replied:
You gon’ hate me for this one. Jay-Z, Pharrell, Diddy, and me was supposed to be a group. Yeah, that’s crazy. I didn’t say, ‘No.’ I didn’t say, ‘Yeah.’ I think that we just got caught up. We all got caught up in the moment.
However, in the end, the group never took off.
We talked about it often, we had several secret meetings about it. We talked about both the type of music we would make and the business part, but we were all busy with other things and we couldn’t finish it, even though I really wanted it to happen.
Usher even collaborated on songs withPharrell Williams,Jay-Z, and Diddy individually, but the four artists never released anything together.
What Is Usher’s Exact Connection To Diddy?
Like many celebrities, Usher hasn’t commented on Diddy’s s*xual assault accusations. However, after people noticed his posts on X were deleted, he claimed his account had beenhacked.
The two met in mid-1994 when Usher was hired by the producer L.A. Reid, who sent him to live with Diddy at just fifteen. The idea was to give them time to work on his debut album. It was supposed to be like a music camp that many artists use to compose. (viaForbes)
Usher had previously confessed toRolling Stonea bit more about how the rapper accused of crime introduced him to a “totally different set of sh*t.” But after that, he never mentioned it again and chose to remain silent on any topic regarding Diddy.

It turns out that whenever he did open up — within limits — about his experiences with the rapper, it was clear just how suspicious everything was. In an interview onThe Howard Stern Show, the singer made it clear that he would never let his children go to one of Diddy’s camps.
It’s also worth noting that Usher was the one who discoveredJustin Bieberand introduced him to the rapper and producer when Bieber was just fifteen as well. Bieber is also at the center of the controversies surrounding the case, and according to rumors, like Usher, he wasone of the victimsof Diddy’s abuse.
