As the allegations against Diddy continue to mount up, internet sleuths have not stopped speculating about the relationship between the controversial hip-hop mogul and other popular celebrities such as Meek Mill and Usher.

Last week, in a lengthy 73-page complaint, music producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones claimed that he recorded audio and video of Diddy and his staff engaging in “illegal activity.”

But despite all the claims made by “Lil Rod” people on social media decided to focus on claims surrounding Usher and Meek Mill. Although neither artist is named or accused of any crime, redactions in the suit seem to reference two people fitting Usher and Meek Mill’s descriptions.

He said, “I moved to New York City and I lived with Sean ‘Puffy’ Combs for a year… Do you understand what that’s like?”

“I went there to see the lifestyle, and I saw it. But I don’t know if I could indulge and understand what I was even looking at. It was pretty wild. It was crazy.

He later added, “There were very curious things taking place and I didn’t necessarily understand it.”
