Ne-Yo has faced backlash after a resurfaced video discussing Diddy’s “Freak-Offs” parties gained attention following the recent arrest of a rapper. The video highlights controversial aspects of the parties, leading to criticism of Ne-Yo amid the ongoing scrutiny surrounding the hip-hop scene. The situation has sparked discussions about the nature of these gatherings and their implications for those involved.
The disgraced music artist, 54, was arrested in New York as part of a sex trafficking investigation and is currently being held at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center. This development has intensified scrutiny of the hip-hop community and raised serious concerns about the allegations against him.
The star, denied bail by a judge, has been placed on suicide watch following his indictment on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering, and transportation for prostitution. Meanwhile, Ne-Yo is facing backlash after a video surfaced of his ex-girlfriend Sade Bagnerise from April. During an Instagram Live stream, she compared Ne-Yo to Diddy, alleging that he assaulted her, and directly addressed him, saying, “Tell them about the freak-off, Diddy Junior.” This has added to the scrutiny surrounding both artists amid the unfolding legal issues.
Sade Bagnerise alleged that Ne-Yo called the police during a confrontation, claiming, “You body slammed me on the floor.” She accused him of inviting women to his home while their children were present, stating, “This n***a likes to have hoes, drugs, weed, alcohol, mushrooms, and prostitutes in the house while his kids are here.” Sade expressed frustration that despite everyone asking him to stop, he refused to listen, revealing she had come to help him care for the children because he wouldn’t do so himself.
Ne-Yo denied the accusations, stating he tried to get Sade out of his house because she was “causing a commotion.” Sade later apologized on social media for how she expressed her frustration publicly. Newsafro.com has reached out to Ne-Yo’s representatives for comment.
Diddy is facing renewed scrutiny after a resurfaced 2002 interview on Late Night With Conan O’Brien, where he jokingly discussed having “locks on the doors” to prevent women from leaving parties. While sharing tips for hosting a “killer party,” he emphasized the importance of inviting “beautiful women” and “beautiful men for the ladies.” The comments have gone viral and sparked further criticism in light of recent allegations against him.
Diddy elaborated on his party checklist, noting the importance of having “alcohols” and “some water.” When Conan O’Brien questioned the inclusion of water, Diddy remarked that many women drink water at parties and suggested that if it wasn’t available, they would leave. He added, “Gotta keep them there,” and jokingly concluded, “You need locks on the doors.” These comments have resurfaced amid the recent scrutiny he faces.
Upon hearing Diddy’s comment, Conan O’Brien paused and remarked, “Okay, this is sounding kind of dangerous now.” Diddy responded, “It’s a little kinky,” before continuing with his party tips. He advised against air conditioning, saying, “Heat affects the alcohol,” which helps people become more comfortable and relaxed. Conan interjected, stating, “That just sounds disgusting,” highlighting the absurdity of Diddy’s suggestions.
To wrap up his checklist, Diddy added that “you need good music” and “you need me, of course.” When Conan O’Brien inquired about celebrities crashing his parties, Diddy reminisced about a 2002 birthday bash at Cipriani in New York City, mentioning attendees like Magic Johnson, Naomi Campbell, and Martha Stewart. He also recounted how Henry Winkler, known for Happy Days, managed to sneak into the celebration.
