Ever since Suge Knight began making shocking claims on his podcast, Collect Call, the music industry has been agitated.

It is well known that Knight, the former CEO of Death Row Records, has revealed a great deal of startling information on the podcast, and it doesn’t appear he will be stopping anytime soon.

He claimed to have inside knowledge of Russell Simmons and Andre Harrell’s relationship during the latest episode of his podcast implying that their relationship went beyond what the public has been led to believe.

Suge Knight claimed that in reality Russell Simmons and the late Diddy’s Uptown Records boss, Andre Harrell were “lovers.” He, alleges that the two men had a covert relationship.

In his recent episode of Collect Call With Suge Knight, the former Death Row mogul claimed that Diddy committed the acts he was recently accused of because of his interactions with Harrell and that both businessmen were lovers.

“Andre Harrell and Russell Simmons—everybody knows,” he began. “They might not want to say it, but they know they were lovers. They participated in those types of things. Now, once again, a person has the right to be whatever they want to be. But own it!”

“These men in the industry don’t consider themselves gay. They consider themselves messing with women, but they really don’t like the women because they beat the shit out of them.”

Suge Knight continued: “And they just believe that they’re having fun with each other, so when you take Andre Harrell and Russell Simmons, Uptown, Def Jam—freaky shit”.

“Puffy got his intern stuff from Andre Harrell. You know the answer already. That started his journey. Puffy started some journeys. It’s not really good to name-call, but it has to stop. But so I don’t get sued, I gotta use the word allegedly”.
