Los Angeles, CA – Hip-hop artist 50 Cent has been vocal about his disapproval of fellow rapper Diddy’s actions. The recent release of a disturbing surveillance video from 2016 showing Diddy physically assaulting his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura has sparked widespread outrage within the industry. Many of Diddy’s colleagues have distanced themselves from him in light of this disturbing footage.
In response to the backlash, Diddy took to Instagram to share a video apology, addressing the leaked footage and Ventura’s allegations against him. However, 50 Cent quickly criticized Diddy’s apology, questioning the sincerity of his words and calling it a “bad move.”
Like many others on social media, 50 Cent expressed disappointment in Diddy’s attempt to apologize without directly acknowledging Ventura in his video. Critics have accused Diddy of only showing remorse after being caught on camera, rather than taking responsibility for his actions.
The release of the apology video marks a shift in Diddy’s stance on the allegations against him, as he previously denied any wrongdoing. In the video, Diddy takes full responsibility for his actions, describing the incident as a result of hitting “rock bottom.” While he mentions seeking professional help, he does not provide details on his treatment.
Diddy concludes the video with an apology to the public, expressing his commitment to becoming a better person. Despite some support for his words, the internet remains divided on Diddy’s motives and the timing of his apology. This latest development comes after Diddy previously claimed innocence in a public statement.
The controversy surrounding Diddy’s actions continues to unfold, with many questioning the sincerity of his apology and his failure to mention Ventura directly. The scrutiny and criticism surrounding Diddy’s behavior highlight a larger conversation about accountability and responsibility in the entertainment industry.
