You talking about you just went to buy a leather jacket. You ain't bothering nobody. You left alone and I went and bought a leather hairline.
Well, let me tell you something, buddy. for some real the internet's on fire and Buster Rhymes is running out of places to duck. Once praised as a hip hop titan with unstoppable energy, he's now tangled in scandal after leaked tapes allegedly tied him to Diddy's infamous world.
Fans are rattled, questioning everything they ever admired. Busta's larger than life persona, once his weapon, is now fueling the backlash as old rumors and unsettling clips resurface. As the chaos grows, Buster shocks everyone again.
This time by pulling 50 Cent straight into the storm. I seen the rapper Buster Rhymes. I seen him pull the little lawyer dude into the section and they walled him off.
So, I'm thinking to myself like, damn. Huh? Well, he ain't come.
Well, he came with us, but I usually got a rule. You come with us, you got to leave with us. cuz I'm I'm I'm I'm this big black here.
I'm going to be the only person they come to pick up first if one of y'all don't show up home. So, it's like I try to stick to my protocol, man. Dude stayed with them.
And then his boyfriend was on Facebook woofing, woofing the whole next day. A mother ain't loyal and all of this. Wait a minute.
Hold on. Any one of us can look at this on Facebook. Yeah, I'mma find this man page, bro.
Just clown. That's the They weirdos cuz you know they they paid me to come on the stream before. So they control.
So I'm like, "Y'all making fake content. " So when I seen them in person, Wack say, "Calm down, CC. It's just for the internet.
It's just content. We know Buster Rhymes gay, but you can't be saying that. " I'm looking like what?
And then the dude loose cam like Cece man you got to call Yeah man we just we just getting content off. I said bro we not playing making fake content. So now that I see that's what they do.
Weirdos bro everybody knows what a rainbow is. You know what I'm saying? Everybody knows what the sky can bring.
It brings rain. It brings the sun. Like you understand what life is too.
You know, so for me to know that you have a great, you know, Raymona Harvey is Buster Rhymes is his real name. Anybody can get on Facebook and look up Raymon Harvey and be like, "Yo, that's Buster Rhymes. Yo, with no wig on and be like, "Yo, yo, yo, yo, while out on your own time, but this is information that you allow me to give to the people.
" I know you're uh, you know, a veteran of the hip-hop community. Frank Ocean just recently came out with with a statement saying that, you know, he was in a relationship, you know, long ago. Do you think hip-hop's ready for um ready for like someone of a different orientation or are they going to be accepting of it or what are your opinions on that?
I I don't know if it's just about hip-hop being willing to accept it. I think the whole world is ready to accept whatever people choose to be in life. You know what I'm saying?
from hip-hop all the way down to just the common man that walks the streets and the earth every day. It's like we're at a place in in in life where you know we got to respect and accept what people choose as their path that they want to walk in life because ultimately you want people to choose to you want people to respect what you choose as your path in and your journey in life. and and ultimately, you know, whatever that man does in his personal space is that man's choice and it's that man's business.
I am a extremely huge fan of Frank Ocean. His music is is impeccable to me and as far as I'm concerned, I respect the dude completely. I think, you know, whatever he does at home is his business.
Just keep that music popping the way you've been keeping it, brother. And you got my money from the concerts. You got my money from when you put them albums in the stores and it ain't going to stop long as you continue to contribute your greatness.
God bless him, man. The moment Buster saw his name getting dragged, he convinced himself 50 Cent was behind it all. In his mind, the internet wouldn't have turned on him this fast without some serious influence.
And who better to stir the pot than the king of online chaos himself? Buster threw jabs at 50's recent music, hoping to ship the heat off himself. But 50 doesn't just react.
He shuts it down completely. So do me a favor. Listen what you're [Music] saying.
For real. What is that man? Just real [ __ ] I can't afford nothing, man.
All my money's in Western Holdings. Don't worry. Rich It's my birthday.

Hold up. Stop. sold 675,000 tickets before the first show in 4 days.
That's because I've been out of the country. He was hitting me three days in a row. Like he hit me the first day.
No, hold on. He hit me the first day. 50 Cent didn't waste a second getting even, grinning on Instagram live.
He zeroed in on Busta's hairline, joking it was fading faster than his career, and the comment section exploded with laughter. But Busta wasn't about to stay silent. He fired back hard and the exchange was pure entertainment.
Never been on a tour for 5 months. We did the first show July 21st. My last show was November 21st.
He's still on that same tour and he don't play with that work. Ever since he first came to Violator and the first give Richard Die Trying came out, he was the only one that would jump on a plane like the a cab, right? Go get it.
That got no problem flying 20 hours somewhere and coming back home the next day. This is how he was from the beginning. Like he So being on that tour and being able to do all of those antics every night the way it was received was phenomenal.
If Buster ever tried to phone me, hit you with no delay. So what you saying? Yo, silly with that N mill.
Yo. Yeah, I I I do better than him. You better not play with me.
I will and perform Buster Rhymes. Yo, cuz I look man, if they try to say that, if you ever thought that the Buster Rhymes was was better than me, you crazy. You crazy, man.
I ain't going to lie. I'm going to give it up to you. The production on your show, incredible.
Light show, incredible. The dances, incredible. The outfit changes, incredible.
Significant improvement since the way you used to put on back in the day. Looking like you fanning a fart is a better performance than Buster Ross. You watch out your rabbit.
Keep fanning the fart. Keep fanning the fart. Hey yo, what you say?
Split. F50. Fanning the fart.
Ferrari. F50. Break it down.
Fan it down. Man, I'm chilling. I ain't bothering nobody.
I'm just chilling. You know what I'm saying? I go I go shopping.
I give me a mean leather jacket. I [ __ ] I'm doing my thing. I'm like, you know, I'm my own little planet.
I ain't with nobody. Always got to try to one up on me, right? Have one up on me.
I get a banging leather jacket. This buster get a leather line out me. But things took an even darker turn when a new video dropped showing Busta acting strangely toward a fan.
The unsettling clip only poured more fuel on the fire, sparking fresh questions about what really happens behind the scenes in the industry. [Music] Hold on. [Music] You put your hands better than me.
Yeah. So, do me a favor, right? You never listen to what you say.
That was it right there. No, I'm about to realize the way I do it. I got control everything.
How you doing? No, that's when this when I'm in the shower, I'm bust around. That's not how I do it in the shower.
Now, hit you with nothing. What you saying? Yo, with the ice [Music] [Music] cream.
That's it. [Music] Drgon season. Everybody go get your dragon mask available in Buster Rhymes Universe.
Click the link in the bio. Shop Buster Rhymes Universe right now. It's that time.
Drgon season. Yeah, we dropping Unleash Me at midnight, too. We ain't playing no games with none of y'all.
What season is it? What season is it? What season is it?
50. You know good and well that I woke up to this. You done started this morning and I was the one that was leaving everybody alone.
So what you doing is giving false narratives, homie. You talking about you just went to buy a leather jacket. You ain't bothering nobody.
You left alone and I went and bought a leather hairline. Well, let me tell you something, buddy. Want some real G?
Let me tell you something. You talking about that pimp and curly that you was doing as a character. But no, you was doing pimp and curly in real life, too.
Trying to look like Rico Suave or one of them going down a red carpet in one of them movie you was involved with. And I don't want you to use that as no excuse either. Talking about you was playing a character.
You wasn't in character where you had to go down that red carpet. You could have got back to yourself. You chose to stay in character with that roab some berries and sweet juices you had up in your head top.
Now, I do want you to know I'm your brother, so I'm going support you and everything you do. I ain't been doing nothing but that since the inception of our friendship. File it up.
Now, with that being said, I got one question to the masses. There's several products that you have to incorporate to get your to look like Rico 50. All right.
Ro, we talking about Rico 50. Let's see which one of the products that he used to get to looking like Rico 50. Was it this [Applause] or was it this [Music] or was it this?
Matter of fact, I think the real question is did he blend all three of these to look like this? [Music] Chill. I got a grand prize.
For anyone that jumps to the comments, any consumer around the world that used to also use these products to help identify doing a forensic deep dive and a research and a data analytics on those products to help us understand was it a combined effort of all three or was it a combined effort of two or was it just one of them to get you to look like Rico 50. Now, with that being said, if you guess right what the blend was chemically for that berry juice look for Rico 50, you might win a grand pies. Until then, just know the blessings don't stop.
So, we going to just keep this going as long as we need to because if the blessings don't stop, I don't stop and we don't stop. Drgon season. Yeah.
As fans connected the dots, Buster's defenses kept crumbling. And then came the biggest shock. He suddenly rushed to defend Diddy, urging everyone to respect his privacy.
Seriously, the stain did Diddy facing multiple federal investigations and whose infamous afterparties have become pure scandal fuel. [Music] I'm going to hold [Music] you [Music] down with me. Everyone [Music] All the sugar [Music] open.
So over the weekend, a video went viral of Busta flirting with a concert goer in suggestive fashion while opening for the GUN boss on his final lap tour in St. Paul, Minnesota last Friday, September 15th. The clip showed him holding his microphone near his crotch and stroking it as if it was an erect while staring at a fan in the crowd and sticking his tongue out.
[Music] After the video caused a stir on social media with some people horrified by Busta's shamelessly horny behavior, 50 Cent reshared it on his Instagram page on Monday, September 18th, along with a few words clouding his close friend. Busta stole this move from me. I used to do this to Magic Stick 10 years ago.
Now it just feels dirty, inappropriate, unnecessary. This is giving your old uncle at the barbecue that won't go sit down vibes, right? Buster Rhymes saw the funny side of it as he responded with several laughing face emojis in the comment section.
This isn't the first time that 50 C has ripped Buster Rhymes on the road. While backstage during a tour stop in Charlotte, North Carolina in August, he couldn't help but poke fun at him in his oversized jewelry. Tell them too big.
Whoa. Tell too big. He ain't got no friends.
They're not telling them. Jokes aside, at least one of 50 and Bus's rap peers wants to see the pair capitalize on their time together on tour and hit the studio. In a tweet last month, Waka Flocka Flame called for the rap legends to drop a full-length project together, saying, "The culture needs it.
The culture need a joint album from Buster Rhymes and 50 Cent. Don't give us a tired because y'all going on a worldwide tour. That's too much.
Lol. " Walker's Wish might be a long shot, though, considering 50 and Buster have only appeared on a handful of songs together, including Eminem's 2003 Ja Rule D Hail Mary, and the posi cut Victory 2004 alongside Diddy, Lloyd Banks, and the Late Big. As if fate was mocking the chaos, Diddy caught a lucky break when a $30 million lawsuit against him got tossed out, giving him one less battle to fight.
But while Diddy slips away for now, Bust is still sinking fast, and there's no one coming to pull him out. So much going on in the music industry uh and the headlines pertaining to Diddy. How closely are you paying attention to his case, the allegations, and the things that are coming forward with him?
I don't pay attention to none of it. I just kind of like to pay attention to the truth when that time manifest and you know we'll speak about this hopefully when that time comes as far as I'm concerned. I don't really like to speak on situations that I'm not well verssed in and that's not really my situation.
You know what I'm saying? But I wish the best for everyone involved. God bless everyone involved.
And you know, I think that we should all kind of be a little more mindful of how much we speak on other things when it's as sensitive as this. And it's incredibly sensitive. It's extremely sensitive.
And I think that people don't keep in mind the effect of what their opinion can have. And I think it's really really important that we reserve our opinions until we we understand what the undisputed truth is. because an opinion can detrimentally affect someone short term and long term and and I just from my own learning experiences and being through you know we are none of us are exempt from going through challenges and obstacles and trials and tribulations some way more intense and extreme than others but I think at the end of the day as we go through these things we learn from them and we also got to learn how to help people get through And that's the angle in life that I like to approach things from because I know if any one of us is going through challenges in general, we we we do want some sort of help and guidance and support to not make those mistakes again.
Have you had the chance to speak to Denny? I spoke to him a few times before like it got a little out of control. But um a lot of the times when people are going through things, you got to respect the space and the privacy that they need to to process how they going to deal with the things that they going through, you know, and I just want to see the right end result for everyone.
So what's your take? Will didd he dodge the rest of his lawsuits? Was 50 really the mastermind behind Busta's downfall?
Drp your thoughts in the comments. And if you're feeling this, smash that subscribe button so you never miss a drop. Until next time, fam.
Say real. Diddy Combmes is celebrating a legal win after a federal judge dropped multiple charges in a $30 million civil lawsuit against him. The New York Times uh the New York judge rather dismissed the most serious allegations in the lawsuit from former music producer Rodney Lil Rod Jones and warned Jones's attorney to stop making quote irrelevant insults, misstatements, and exaggerations.
Combmes denies all the allegations against him. And this all comes as a new AB News podcast is shedding light on the criminal charges and civil lawsuits against Diddy and his claims of innocence. Bad rap.
The case against Diddy is brought to you by host ABC News legal contributor Brian Buckmeer and I spoke with Brian yesterday to tell us all about it. Take a look. Congratulations on the new podcast.
I know our viewers are excited cuz you're a familiar face around here. So, I want to start there because you are on here almost every week if not more often with me talking about big cases in the news. So, what made you focus on this one?
What is it about Diddy's case that made you want to dig deeper? So, I think it's a combination of, and I think we can all kind of agree to some extent, everyone knows Puffy, Puff Daddy, Shawn Combmes in some way, shape, or form through his music. He's had a huge influence in the way that we look at hiphop, of the way we look at uh millionaires, billionaires, um fashion, things like that.
And then all of a sudden, we have this massive criminal case. And I think a lot of people are looking back and saying, "What? I heard a whisper.
I heard a rumor. Is this connected? Is it not?
" And I think both as an attorney and as just a person who was born in the '8s, this fascinated me and I and I really appreciate ABC and everyone involved because when I came with a crazy idea of like, what about a podcast? People are like, you know what? Yeah, let's let's see how this works.
How significant is it that this federal judge just dropped multiple charges from Lil Rod's civil lawsuit? So, I get that it's a big headline. And it is significant if you're looking at it just as the civil lawsuit.
And I think the Rodney Jones lawsuit was massive in the sense that it led to the the raids of of Shan Con's homes. Uh because in that lawsuit said this is where the videos are. This is what he's doing with it.
All the allegations and likely led to this federal indictment. But the reason why these charges got dismissed is because of pleadings. the way that the attorney uh pled out the charges with RICO, for example, that that highest charge and couldn't connect uh an alleged criminal enterprise to the damages that Rodney Jones says that he faced.
Now, does that mean that Shawn Combmes had a RICO enterprise? Maybe, maybe not. It just But it means in the civil lawsuit, it's not going to apply.
So, for his federal indictment, that criminal case, that's still going on and that's probably a bigger issue for Shawn Combmes overall. This story has gotten a lot of coverage already and it undoubtedly will continue to. So what makes bad rap different?
So I think the the the really beautiful thing that ABC radio and and 2020 is doing is we have so much video audio over the years of Sean Combmes. He's always been in the public uh public eye and the ability to go through archival information to speak to experts who are at some of the white parties who listen to some of his music who uh was following it all along and then kind of just putting myself in there. also someone who actually knows the law, who has been in the Southern District of New York where he's being prosecuted and you get to see it from all of those angles and someone who's familiar with the music and the culture in many ways and talking about it from all those angles and then leading up to the trial.
I think a lot of times we talk about trials, we kind of just drop people in. It's like, "All right, here's opening statements. " But with the podcast, you get to really follow the rise and fall of Shawn Combmes up into the trial.
Hear the controversy, hear the whispers, hear what could have really crashed his career but didn't. And then we leave you right at the trial informed, entertained, exhilarated, and then we do it twice a week while the trial uh goes on. And we're going to give you those updates, give you that analysis, and also how it's all connected.
And I can confirm even from our conversations when you understand what's coming in a trial and the context around it before that trial starts, it makes the trial itself so much more interesting. And I know you touched on how you have weekly episodes and then once the trial starts, you're going to have twice a week episodes. What do you what should we expect there from those kind of live updates?
I think you're going to get uh everything that you are accustomed to getting in ABC News Live as well as uh radio in the sense of they're already saying Brian we're going to have you right there sitting next to Aaron Kurski. You're going to be listening and watching. And when I come out to talk about the podcast, uh it's not just going to be, well, this evidence came out.
It's going to be like, what was the jury looking like? What was this person doing? Unfortunately, in the Southern District of New York, we don't have cameras.
people are not going to be able to watch his trial. Listening is probably going to be the best bet. And I love the way that ABC is attacking this and saying, "Let's put people in that courtroom as best as we can and give them a podcast that allows for that.
