A music producer involved in Sean “Diddy” Combs‘ 2023 album “The Love Album: Off the Grid” has filed a lawsuit accusing Combs of sexual assault, harassment, s** trafficking, and other forms of misconduct.
In the complaint, plaintiff Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones Jr. alleges that Combs groped and touched him inappropriately. It was further claimed that Diddy even allegedly attempted to groom him for sexual acts with Combs and others, including Love Album producer Steven Aaron Jordan and a cousin of Combs’ ex-girlfriend Yung Miami.
Jones also claims that Combs coerced him into soliciting s*x workers, some of whom were underage, and performing sexual acts for Combs’ pleasure. One alleged incident from February 2023 describes Jones waking up naked and disoriented in a bed with two s*x workers and Combs at Combs’ Miami home, which Jones believes involved being drugged by Combs.
The lawsuit, filed by attorney Tyrone Blackburn, includes additional defendants accused of conspiring with Combs in what is described as a “RICO enterprise” to facilitate his misconduct. Defendants named in the suit include Universal Music Group (UMG).
Motown Records (a UMG subsidiary), Combs’ label imprint Love Records, UMG chairman/CEO Lucian Grainge, former Motown CEO/chairwoman Ethiopia Habtemariam, Combs’ chief of staff Kristina Khorram, and Combs’ son Justin Combs.
