Young Miami breaks silence on sexual harassment and abuse allegations against ex-boyfriend Diddy, reviving her REVOLT series Caresha please on Thursday night (August 8) for an interview with friend and fellow rapper Saucy Santana.
Santana directly asked the City Girls rapper (born Caresha Brownlee) if Diddy (real name: Sean Combs) had ever hit her during their relationship, referring to a 2016 surveillance video surfaced by CNN in May that shows Combs attacking his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura. Miami acknowledged that she had two previous abusive relationships, but said she did not experience domestic violence during her time with Diddy, when they began dating between 2021 and 2023.
She also said she didn't feel the need to get into allegations against her ex — including a lawsuit by Ventura that was filed and settled within 24 hours in November, as well as other sexual harassment allegations and lawsuits that have surfaced in the months since. — since she was not present for this conduct.
“I can't talk about something that wasn't my experience and I can't talk about something that I don't know,” Young Miami said of why she had remained silent. “I can't talk about those allegations because I wasn't there at the time.”
She also felt it was unfair that she was asked to answer for Didi's alleged inappropriate behavior when his reported actions took place before their relationship. “I met Diddy when people were celebrating him and giving him their flowers while he was still alive,” she said, referring to his Global Icon Award win and performance at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards and other honors. “So I was celebrating him with everyone and I feel like everyone is crucifying me for it.”
The settlement of Ventura's lawsuit opened the floodgates in November, with a pair of sexual assault charges against Diddy emerging later that month, followed by one in December and one in February, and then federal raids on his homes in Miami and Los Angeles in March. While Diddy and his lawyers have maintained the hip-hop star's innocence throughout the allegations, he posted a video apology that was deleted after surveillance footage of him and Cassie was released.
REVOLT, the home of Yung Miami Caresha please series, founded by Diddy in 2013. He stepped down as chairman of the network in November and reportedly sold his stake in the company to an unnamed buyer in March after his home was raided.
