There's a documentary on Netflix that shows him to essentially be a psychopath - the guy is undeniably evil based on available evidence but what also struck me is that he somehow learnt how to play the system effectively considering how much he has gotten away with. I find it difficult to fathom he's been able to get away with so much without receiving protection from higher places i.e. it screams out that he's some sort of "intelligence asset" who's primary use is to inject poison into culture.

Interestingly, this documentary was created and co-directed by Curtis Jackson, aka 50 Cent. Jackson has been alluding to and speaking up about P. Diddy's degenerate activities for years and it seemed to fall on deaf ears. I often wondered how much truth there was in 50 Cent's accusations. He surely must have had insider knowledge given that he's someone of high standing in this industry.
I'm not a big fan of 50 Cent's music genre but I follow him on instagram exclusively for his P. Diddy updates - which are quite entertaining. Apparently he only agreed to be interviewed by the ABC network because it's one of the few channels that are allowed in prison so Diddy will see it. I guess if you're gonna be petty you may as well be top level petty
The Diddy case also reminds me of R. Kelly whose sex trafficking and racketeering went on undetected by the public opinion for years, decades even. There must have been tons of people who knew, the guy pretty much ran a sex cult, you can't keep a lid on something like that singlehandedly. Then there was the fall of Harvey Weinstein. I wonder what leads to eventual disclosure in these instances - do they step on the wrong foot and protection stops? Or do they move too far and are thrown under a bus? I'm pretty sure Combs could have taken a lot of people down with him - and yet he hasn't. That makes me wonder as well.
50 Cent also points his finger at Jay Z and Beyonce, two mega names in the industry. I can't help but wonder if these accusations also have weight to them - the ones about Combs did.
I think I posted about this before but there's a singer form a boyband that was very popular in the 1990s in Europe, called Boyzone, who has spoken about satanic rituals and prayers done over music. While the 1990s were much more vanilla compared to what's coming out as hit singles these days it's not hard to believe they'd do that. This quite from a
session comes to mind:
Q: (L) Okay:
What is more important in determining a song’s value: the lyrics or the sound/mood/feeling?
A: The sound opens the door for the lyrics to enter for good or ill.
Q: (L) Does that mean that a song that sounds really horrible and mechanical and like somebody just beating on a pot or clanging on the hood of their car or something, and if that's the kind of music the person likes, but it also has good lyrics, then that's okay?
A: Not exactly. The sound can open gates at - or of - different levels and parts of the internal makeup.
Here's a short from the
interview with the former member of Boyzone, Shane Lynch, I mentioned:
