Embattled music producer and rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs who is facing federal criminal charges in New York of racketeering, sex trafficking and other offences was named alongside Jay-Z in the lawsuit.
Spiro while distancing Jay-Z from Diddy said there was no friendship between both parties, hinting at nothing more than an acquaintance.
