Diddy‘s fall from grace has been swift ever since a video of him assaulting Cassie surfaced online, and Michael Blackson has now listed the mogul’s only remaining options to win people over once again.
In an interview clip published by The Art Of Dialogue on Wednesday (June 19), the comedian reflected on the disturbing footage while discussing the the New York City native’s future in the public eye.

“I saw the video, man,” he began, before referencing the numerous other lawsuits the Bad Boy boss is currently negotiating. “And the thing about it is, like, everything else was speculations […] whether his sexuality, everything he was doing, sex trafficking — all of that was all speculation, but when you saw the video, you’re like, ‘If he could do this, he’s capable of anything.’
“The video was very hard to watch, very hard to watch. Y’know, and then, of course, after the video, he had to apologize, but of course he had to — we all apologize after we get caught. I used to cheat all the time and I denied it; as soon as I got caught, I was like, ‘Oh shit, I’m sorry I did it.'”

Shifting his focus to what the Press Play rapper can do to potentially remedy his wrongdoings, he continued: “There’s probably three ways [for him] coming back to life. Probably the Nation Of Islam — number one, probably, right? Y’know, go out there, got talk to [Louis] Farrakhan, join the team, I mean put him on the street [to] sell bean pies, like they did back in [the] 90s.
“Two, just join the LGBTQIE [sic] — I’m not sure if I missed any letters or not. Join them […] Turn into a pastor [or] something; turn into a Ma$e. Y’know, become a pastor, or just pack this shit and go to some village somewhere and change your name.”
Michael Blackson reveals the only ways Diddy can repair his image is by coming out as gay, joining the Nation of Islam, or becoming a pastor.

Last month, a longtime critic of Diddy pointed out the insincerity of the aforementioned apology regarding the ordeal with Cassie.
In mid-May, Aubrey O’Day took to social media with a receipt to put the businessman’s acknowledgement of his violent behavior in perspective. Even though he took accountability for his past actions, she reminded the cyberspace that he flat-out denied the incident in question last year.
“I did not do any of the awful things being alleged,” he wrote in a statement soon after his former partner sued him. “I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth.”
Sharing an image of the now-deleted note, the former Danity Kane star added: “Diddy did not apologize to Cassie. He apologized to the world for seeing what he did. He says he’s ‘disgusted w himself now, and he was disgusted w himself then.’”

She concluded: “But apparently he wasn’t disgusted enough w himself to not PIN this statement out calling her a liar & denying all of it.. leave god and mercy out of this, they aren’t present here, and you know it.”
