Kid Cudi, aka Scott Mescudi, provided sober and deeply unsettling testimony in relation to the ongoing federal investigation into Sean "Diddy" Combs. His testimony has added more fuel to the legal battle Diddy is engaged in, shedding new light on the mogul's alleged violent and retaliatory behavior.

Background: Why Cudi Testified

Cudi's involvement concerns his brief romantic affair with singer Cassie Ventura during approximately 2011 — during which Cassie purportedly was in a highly controlling and abusive relationship with Diddy. Court records and other witnesses note that Diddy somehow got angry upon hearing of their relationship and began going after Cudi.

Major Claims Based on Kid Cudi's Testimony

1. Molotov Attack on Cudi's Porsche

Cudi testified on the stand that his car — a Porsche 911 — burst into flames in his driveway after it had been firebombed with a Molotov cocktail. It occurred weeks after the initial escalation of tensions with Combs.

Cudi's quote: "I was shocked. I was scared. I didn't know what he would do, but I knew this was a message."

He did not point an accusing finger at Combs for having carried out the bombing, but made a strong implication of connection.

2. Diddy's alleged threat at Paris Fashion Week

Cudi recounted an incident at a party at Paris Fashion Week when Combs allegedly leaned over and said:

"You know I blew up your car, right?"

The remark, Cudi said, confirmed his suspicions and sent shivers down his spine. He also summed up Combs as being like a "Marvel supervillain" — arrogant, threatening, and above accountability.

Other Accusations Involving the Alleged Retaliation

Break-in at Cudi's Home

Prior to the car explosion, Cudi returned home to find his Hollywood Hills residence ransacked. His dog was found locked in a bathroom. No items were stolen, leading him to believe it was an intimidation tactic rather than a robbery.

Cassie’s Allegations Match Cudi’s Account

Cassie Ventura’s own testimony supports Cudi’s claims. She alleges Diddy became physically violent when he learned about her involvement with Cudi, going so far as to attack her with a corkscrew and threaten to leak explicit material.

Cassie said that Diddy:

Was “furious” about her seeing Cudi.

Explicitly said he would make Cudi’s life “a living hell.”

Why This Testimony Matters

Kid Cudi’s statements are part of a broader federal case against Diddy involving:

• Sex trafficking

• Racketeering

• Abuse and coercion

• Possession and distribution of illicit materials

Federal agents have reportedly seized surveillance footage and other materials from Combs’s properties. The testimonies, including Cudi’s, may help prosecutors build a pattern of intimidation, violence, and abuse of power.

Cudi’s Tone and Impact in Court

Witnesses said Cudi appeared to be calm but clearly distraught. He emphasized that he had remained silent out of fear for years but was no longer willing to keep silent in an attempt to help other victims and "help bring the truth to light."

Next Steps in the Case

The federal investigation is still ongoing, with more witnesses expected to testify in the coming weeks. Combs has denied all wrongdoing and has not yet been formally charged with crimes related to Cudi’s claims, though the pressure is mounting.
