Sean “Diddy” Combs is facing new allegations from songwriter Tiffany Red, who has come forward with a shocking claim that she was drugged by the music mogul during a 2017 studio session.

Red, who worked on Cassie’s sophomore album, shared her disturbing experience on Instagram, adding to the growing list of accusations against the disgraced Bad Boy executive.

In her post, Red revealed that while collaborating on Cassie’s album, she experienced both professional deception and personal trauma. She recounted how she was unwittingly exposed to Diddy’s abusive behavior towards Cassie and others in her circle. During one writing session at his home studio in Holmby Hills, she unknowingly consumed a substance that had been laced without her consent.

Red described the moment she realized something was wrong, explaining that the effects of the drug were immediate. Despite the terrifying situation, she managed to escape that night but remains haunted by the memory of what happened.

The songwriter also expressed relief that Diddy has been apprehended, thanking authorities for stepping in and holding him accountable for his actions.

Diddy facing more allegations after arrest

Her comments follow Diddy’s recent arrest, where he’s facing multiple charges, including assault.

This latest allegation comes on the heels of more damning evidence against the music mogul. During a bail appeal hearing in New York on September 18, Assistant U.S. Attorney Emily Johnson presented frantic text messages that Diddy had sent to Cassie following a violent assault in 2016.

The messages reveal Diddy’s panic after the attack, as he begged Cassie to respond, fearing police involvement. Johnson argued that the texts showed a clear awareness of wrongdoing.

Cassie, who had suffered significant physical and emotional abuse, responded to Diddy’s messages, reminding him of the impact of his violence. The courtroom heard how she had told him she was still bruised from the assault, further emphasizing the long-standing abusive dynamic in their relationship.
