“So, are you telling me that Burna Boy was being exploited by Diddy? If you’ve been anywhere near Twitter lately, you already know people are going crazy over this viral still that reportedly features a tape of Diddy with Burna Boy, who’s apparently in panic mode right now. There’s no way to confirm if this pic is real or not, but people are speculating that Burna allegedly ‘bent’ to Diddy to cement his place in the industry. Yeah, we’re talking about Grammys and all that.
Rumor has it there’s a leaked audio recording allegedly sounding like Burna Boy and Diddy in a very compromising situation. Fans immediately started connecting dots, pulling up every little interaction these two have had, and trust me, the internet’s been running wild with this. People started dragging up old videos, photos, and even tweets to try to make it all fit. Diddy’s been accused in the past of using his power to get artists to ‘do favors.’ Lil Rod was the first one to talk about this, claiming that Diddy knew he looked up to Stevie J and allegedly used that admiration to manipulate him into an affair.”
“In the lawsuit, he said Mr. Combs knew that Mr. Jones admired music producer Steven Aaron Jordan, aka Stevie J, a Grammy winner and part of Bad Boy Records’ production team. Mr. Combs allegedly used Stevie J’s influence and Mr. Jones’s admiration for him to groom Mr. Jones into engaging in certain acts. Lil Rod also suggested Stevie J won a Grammy after working with Diddy, hinting that Diddy promised him the award if he ‘cooperated.’
Now people are wondering what Stevie J did for Diddy to win that Grammy. This is why some folks think Burna Boy might’ve gotten his Grammy thanks to Diddy’s influence. Then, just last month, Nigerian artist Speed Darlington fueled this narrative further. He hinted that Diddy’s help in Burna’s Grammy win might’ve been more than musical, saying Burna took a picture with Diddy and won a Grammy shortly after. He wasn’t holding back, even asking how much ‘baby oil’ was used.”
“People are also recalling that rumored feud in February 2023 when Diddy shaded Burna on IG, allegedly posting, ‘I helped you win your first and only Grammy out of kindness, and now you think you can win another without me?’ Looks like Burna didn’t want to continue their alleged ‘arrangement,’ and maybe that’s why Diddy got so upset. Fans are now analyzing every interaction Burna had with Diddy during that time.
Fans pointed to the Billboard Music Awards when they seemed unusually close. Now with this viral pic circulating, people think there’s more to their relationship.
Diddy once tweeted that he and Burna Boy developed a ‘brotherhood’ during quarantine, and that he executive produced Burna’s Grammy-winning album Twice as Tall. Burna isn’t the only artist linked to these rumors—Meek Mill and others have been mentioned, too. Some even say Diddy tried to approach other rappers like The Game, who allegedly turned down his advances.
The Game was among the first to openly discuss rumors of ‘hidden truths’ among rappers on Vlad TV back in 2011, saying there were more rappers hiding their true selves than people realized. When asked if he ever worked with a secretly gay rapper, he hinted he might have, saying some rappers pretend to be straight and live the ‘rap life’ but are hiding something. The Game also recently claimed he spent two years with Diddy, saying they were always partying, not making music.
People speculated that Diddy might’ve tried to turn The Game, but when it didn’t work out, he moved on. Some fans didn’t believe that Diddy might have been involved with Meek Mill until an audio surfaced. Now, with this new viral image and speculation, people think Burna might’ve received a ‘favor’ from Diddy for that Grammy win. Fans pieced together Burna Boy’s lyrics as further ‘evidence.’ With all this heat, you’d think Burna would address it, but he’s stayed silent, maybe hoping it’ll pass.”
