Shyne is making the media rounds to promote his new documentary The Honorable Shyne, and in his latest interview he recalls two shocking Diddy-related moments: a time when he spat in the mogul’s face, and an occasion, years later, when Diddy paid him $50,000 as a reward for serving a long prison sentence.

After a nightclub shooting in late 1999, Shyne was convicted of first-degree assault and sentenced to ten years in prison, while Diddy, facing charges for the same incident, was acquitted. On Monday (November 18), Shyne told the hosts of The Breakfast Club about a time during his incarceration when he was visited by Diddy in New York City’s Rikers Island Jail.

“He came to see me once, and I tried to spit in his face,” the rapper-turned-politician recalled. “I didn’t even know he was coming to see me. They just brought me down in the lawyer’s office.”

Shyne also talked about what happened when he visited Diddy in 2012, three years after his release from prison — and how he was anticipating the trip would come with a major payday.

“I got out in 2009. There wasn’t an attempt at reconciliation until 2012, when I went to Paris to meet him,” Shyne began.

“If I would have cooperated with the district attorney, he’d have went to jail, and heaven knows what would have happened to his career. So that’s worth at least a couple million dollars out of the billion that you’re worth.”

But, Shyne continued, things didn’t work out that way.

In an interview last week on The Stephen A. Smith Show, Shyne denied the long-standing rumor he was paid off to take the fall in the nightclub shooting case.

“People say, ‘Oh Diddy gave [you] millions to go to jail.’ Nothing!” he said, before alluding to the comparatively small payment years later, mentioned above.

“Probably made two what I thought were offensive contributions over the last 20-something years which led to a breakdown in the relations. But I moved on.”
