Usher Recalls 'Wild' Experience Living With Diddy in Resurfaced Interview

Usher's memories of living with Diddy in an interview on 'The Howard Stern Show' have resurfaced in the wake of the music mogul's house raid. The singer was just 13 years old when he moved in with his new mentor at the time for what was dubbed 'Puffy Flavor Camp' in the early '90s.

There are a lot of things celebrities are trained NOT to say on TV. Some things really are better left unsaid, but he also could be sued for speaking on those things so publicly as well. So maybe it’s good that he was tight lipped because it’s coming out anyway. After that lawsuit with Cassie, it was like a domino effect. After that, he started getting hit with lawsuits left and right.

The entertainment industry gets away with this because it’s blinding; people see their dreams, a lavish lifestyle and money and they go with it. It’s looked at as the necessary evil and eventually it’ll get normalized. We normalized anti-science and anti-vaccination and have given platforms to uneducated people to speak about stuff they know nothing about. Most of us know it’s not normal. It’s hurting people. There will be long term repercussions but there push back is too much to fight, so we let the anti-science brigade talk. In 10-20 years, there will be a story on all the long forgotten illnesses that are killing everyone and the younger generation won’t understand got we didn’t do anything.

LA Reid was Usher guardian while he was recording his first album, which LA Reid then appointed Diddy to work on Ushers album is how he ended living with Diddy, it was just suppose to be a in house work type of thing. LA Reid and Usher mom had no idea all that was going on and how unprofessional Diddy was, it was just a different time back then. It wouldn’t happen today because there’s so much technology from social media to ring cameras etc. Diddy was just the hot producer at the time, technically he was only supposed to be working and producing everyday all day, but people in power never do what they’re supposed to do. Hence why Ushers first album was probably not as successful.

The "hell no" from Usher at the end says it all. Now that he's a grown man, Usher definitely understands that he has been groomed. Teenagers staying with adults and being taken to clubs where there's no curfews and limits - that says it all. It takes the right mind to say no to that lifestyle. Any sane parent wouldn't let their teenage son and daughter to stay with some adult rapper for days and weeks. It makes me think how some parents should have stepped in and protect their kids in these situations. So kudos to Usher saying straight up he wouldn't let his kids stay with that predator.
