Ice Cube has suggested that there is a conspiracy targeting Diddy and that the sexual assault allegations against him are part of a plan to destroy the Bad Boy boss.

Appearing on Patrick Bet-David’s PBD Podcast, the N.W.A co-founder made a number of bold and unsubstantiated claims about the multiple sexual assault lawsuits filed against Puffy.

Cube started off by saying: “How could you be surprised with anything that happens in Hip Hop? Hip Hop is the Wild West, so you are going to have the good, you’re going to have the bad, you’re going to have the ugly.”

He went on to cast doubt on his alleged victims’ claims, saying: “I believe he’s being targeted. I believe somebody has the power to pull the trigger to make this stuff just domino effect happen.”

The rapper and actor then appeared to walk back some of his comments: “I don’t know enough to even be able to be specific on any of this stuff. It’s just all speculation.

“I just know he was cool up until a point and then this stuff started happening. So I believe somebody, like I said, said, ‘Yo, he’s our new guy. We on to this year,’ or whatever.”

Cube also said that he has never attended any of Diddy’s parties and “lost contact with him and really stopped dealing with Puffy around ’94.”

However, he also acknowledged that Diddy and some of his Bad Boy producers contributed to his 2000 album War & Peace Vol. 2: The Peace Disc, describing the experience as “cool.”

“He gave us great music. We flew out to New York and I was mainly in the studio with his stable of producers. I think we did some great music,” he said.

Diddy himself reportedly suggested that there was a conspiracy working against him that led to the CCTV footage of him assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie being leaked to the media.

“He’s incensed,” an unnamed source told the New York Post following its release. “Especially about the video. He insists it doesn’t tell the full story about what happened. Not that he’s excusing it, but he says that it’s a selected video.”

The source continued: “It’s his position that there was an agenda in releasing the video when it was released. But ultimately, he knows that his big concern is the raids on his house; the Cassie video is just a distraction.”

In addition to facing multiple lawsuits, Diddy saw two of his homes raided by Homeland Security agents in March as part of a federal investigation into sex trafficking accusations.

The 54-year-old has denied any wrongdoing and has yet to be criminally charged.
