Just days after Diddy and Cassie settled in the sexual assault case she filed against him, singer Al B. Sure got people talking online after posting a cryptic message about folks with “grimy ways” who are “secretly part of shenanigans” on Sunday.
Naturally, given the timing and Al’s association with Diddy through his ex-wife Kim Porter, many speculated that the post was about the Bad Boy artist.
“Kind of, almost something like this...I do agree my expectations about you were driven strictly from my optimistic view of you, hoping your grimy ways would dissipate with age or the current state of affairs that will eventually expose that you were on the payroll and secretly part of the shenanigans. Undo the puzzle,” the since-expired Instagram story post read, as captured by The Shaderoom.
However, later that day, the In Effect Mode singer hopped back on the app to make it abundantly clear that the subject of his ire was definitively not Diddy and instead was about someone close that he considered family.
“Kings and Queens, I trust all is well and hope you’re having an amazing Sunday. Thank you to all of the major media outlets and platforms who have reached out to speak with me regarding my recovery and healing process. Let’s take a moment and re-read the story about the individual ‘being on a payroll!,’” he began. “I posted a story this morning about someone close to me that I trusted like family, come to find out I walk with their flag daily & they were grimy on many levels while I went down and was hospitalized and they’ve been questionably riding the fence throughout the entire attempts on my existence.”
He continued:
“So to update your blogs and fictional narratives FYI: I don’t comment, speak on nor concern myself with court cases, the ensuing results or another man or woman’s business thats not my own, no matter how closely associated my artistic posts may reflect real life. As you can imagine, or not if you’ve graciously followed me on this journey from deaths bed back to health I’ve only spent every waking moment focused, diligently healing daily by walking in love and light in abundance minus the shenanigans.
If these “G Rated” version of the photos and videos I’ve shared look horrific they aren’t half of what I’ve actually endured in real life, months in the hospital. I’m not gone hold you; but waking up out of that 2-3 month coma I do recall a few significant memories, one being called crazy and delusional a short while back when I share of my experiences. I understand to most, it only sounds like a movie to those who just don’t understand the daily normal activities within the entertainment business. Don’t Let the Love Songs Fool You!”
He concluded by reiterating the fact that he had “no comment on anyone’s court case” and that he would reserve all comments for his own situation, citing the very recent history of his health scares (which included a coma, five surgeries, being on a ventilator, being intubated, septic, on dialysis and more.)
“I will be speaking on only Al B. Sure! business as my council advises me to do so,” he said.
