Few days after the publicized near-brawl at the VMAs between J. Cole
and Diddy, it has now been reported that the altercation started from
Kendrick Lamar’s controversial verse in Big Sean’s Control.
According to new reports, tensions initially boiled over between Diddy and Lamar which resulted in Cole getting involved.
Multiple
sources familiar with the situation told Complex it went down like
this: 1. Diddy was visibly intoxicated. 2. He tried to confront Kendrick
over the “King of New York” claim in his “Control” freestyle. 3. Diddy
allegedly attempted to pour a drink on Kendrick, and J.
Cole intervened.
4. The two started arguing and Cole allegedly put his hands on Diddy,
which then led to problems between their respective crews. 5. After a
brief scuffle, both crews separated. We reached out to the Dream
Downtown to confirm the party. Their reps said they hosted an event on
Sunday night with a variety of celebrities but could not give out
further information on the incident. However, photos via FakeShoreDrive
from the event confirm that J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, and Diddy were all
in the building. (Complex)
While brief with his words, Cole simply downplayed the rumored scuffle on Monday (August 26).
“people will believe anything,” Cole tweeted August 26. (J. Cole’s Twitter)
More direct in his approach, Diddy specifically addressed the reports and did initially confirm there was some shouting.
“I
usually don’t address rumors but I got too much respect for my bro
@JColeNC. We are friends. We just yell in public sometimes LOL #Fam,”
Diddy tweeted August 26.

“The
Internet is a crazy place you n*ggaz reporting sh*t with no facts, Cole
ain’t get thrown out no party and he d*mn sure aint get beat up,” he
tweeted August 26.
