Yesterday rap fans were hit with the shocking news that Diddy's residences in Miami and Los Angeles were being raided by the FBI. Perhaps just as shocking was the announcement that they were executing search warrants related to a sex trafficking investigation. The rap mogul has spent the past few months facing a myriad of allegations of bad behavior dating back decades. While that's come from a variety of lawsuits this investigation from the feds obviously raises the stakes significantly.
Now just a day following the raids, TMZ has obtained footage of the inside of one of the houses following the feds executing their search on it. As you'd expect, the house looks pretty ransacked with things taken out of shelves and drawers and thrown all over the floor. Throughout the two-minute video, we see numerous rooms in the house with dozens and dozens of items littered about them. It shows closets, living rooms, bedrooms, and more. Check out the full video and some of the fans reacting to the behind-the-scenes look below.
TMZ has been keeping an incredibly watchful eye over the entire Diddy situation since it first unfolded. They had footage overnight of two of the rap mogul's sons, King and Justin, showing up at his Los Angeles mansion to pick up some of their belongings from the location following the raid. They also reported that electronics were seized during the raid which could potentially contain evidence for the investigation against the rapper.
There have been a variety of reactions from around the rap world to the raids. Some feel like it is overdue justice following all of the recent allegations made against Diddy. But others feel like he's being made a scapegoat and being treated too harshly. What do you think of the video of Diddy's house following a raid by the feds earlier this week? Are you surprised the house isn't even more wrecked than it is? Let us know in the comment section below.
KATSEYE have officially begun a fresh chapter with the announcement of their forthcoming single, Pinky Up.
The K-pop girl group sparked curiosity online after sharing a string of mysterious posts that quickly had fans trying to piece together the clues.
The first teaser, posted on March 30, featured the Mona Lisa gently raising a hot cup of tea with her pinky finger lifted. The next video, uploaded the next day, showed an arcade claw machine labeled with the group’s name pulling a sword from a mix of sparkling plush toys and a single teacup. Making things even more intriguing, the caption stated: “We’re screaming from cloud nine!!”
Their third update finally revealed the song title along with its cover art. The image showed a figure kneeling on a rug next to a teacup and a toy cat, while the title appeared in bright hot pink text across the visual. The group also confirmed the release date as April 9.
Pinky Up will arrive just one day before KATSEYE appear at Coachella on April 10, which will mark their first time performing at the famous festival.
The single also marks their first comeback since HYBE and Geffen confirmed that member Manon Bannerman would be stepping away for a period of time to prioritize her “health and well being.”
In a message posted on Weverse, they shared: "Hello. After open and thoughtful conversations together, we are sharing that Manon will be taking a temporary hiatus from group activities to focus on her health and wellbeing."
The group expressed that they “fully support this decision,” and added: “KATSEYE remains committed to showing up for one another and for the fans who mean everything to us. We look forward to being together again when the time is right.”
While she is away, the group will continue promotions with Daniela Avanzini, Lara Raj, Megan Skiendiel, Sophia Laforteza and Yoonchae Jeung.
They closed their message by saying: “Thank you to our EYEKONS for your continued love, patience, and understanding.”
