In a sit-down interview with Charlamagne Tha God, Yung Miami addressed her relationship with Diddy and why she didn’t turn her back on him amid his allegations of sexual abuse and conviction on prostitution charges.
When the topic of Diddy came up in the interview, which premiered on The Breakfast Club on Tuesday (Mar 24), Miami was asked how she reconciles the person she knew with the allegations he was facing.
“I think in life you always get put in a situation where you gotta, you know, make a life decision,” she told Charlamagne. “And you gotta look back and say like, ‘What makes sense for me right now?’ I can love this person, but I can love this person from a distance, or no, I can have a relationship with this person, but maybe I gotta come back to it. Like, maybe I gotta come back around, and I think that this was one of those situations.”
During Diddy’s trial on racketeering, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution charges, Yung Miami shared a character letter in support of the disgraced Bad Boy Records founder. She described him as a “loving” and “supportive” person in the letter. When asked about the negative reaction to the letter, especially in connection with the release of disturbing surveillance footage that showed Diddy physically attacking Cassie, she explained why she decided to write that letter.
“I think I wrote a letter for a changed man,” she said. “I think that the man that I met and that I experienced was changed. I’m not gonna justify some bull s**t or like, support some bullshit. I felt like the person that I met was changed. It was a different experience, so that’s why I wrote the letter.”
Asked if she feels like she owes her fans an explanation or if her personal relationships aren’t their business, she said she feels she has to do “both.”
“I feel like, as people that’s supporting you, that’s buying into you and that love you… They gotta be able to connect with you,” she continued. “I can’t just be like, ‘ f**k y’all, this is my personal life. I don’t owe y’all.’”
Diddy was found guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution and sentenced to four years and two months in prison, followed by five years of supervised release. He was found not guilty on racketeering and sex trafficking charges.
“I can’t speak to nothing that I don’t know of,” said Miami. “I can only speak to the person that I met. And if I met this person that changed my life, that helped me grow, that treated me like a queen, that made me believe [in] myself… That’s what I know. I feel like people can have opinions, but I can only judge a person off of what I know and what I experience. Like, I can’t speak on nothing that I never was a part of, that I never knew. I can only judge who I met. I can only judge who I was in a relationship with.”
Charlamagne asked Miami if she was afraid of being called to testify during the trial, and she said that she wasn’t.
“I never hid nothing, I don’t have nothing to hide,” she added.
Miami also noted that people turned their back on her following her support for Diddy, and that the whole situation with him “really” impacted her public brand.
“I lost deals,” she said. “I lost money. I lost relationships. I lost a lot.”
The fallout following her public support of Diddy has led to her not trusting anybody, she added.
“The only person I try to trust is God and my kids,” she said.
