Suge Knight claims that Diddy‘s former Uptown Records boss, the late Andre Harrell, was in a secret affair with Russell Simmons.
On a new episode of Collect Call With Suge Knight that premiered on Sunday (February 4) via Dave Mays’ Breakbeat Media, the former Death Row mogul alleged that both businessmen were lovers and that Diddy went on to do the things he was recently accused of because of the time he spend around Harrell.
“Andre Harrell and Russell Simmons – everybody know,” he began. “They might not wanna say it, [but] they know they was lovers. They participated in those types of things. Now, once again, a person has the right to be whatever they wanna be. But own it!
“These men in the industry don’t consider theyself gay. They consider themselves messing with women, but they really don’t like the women because they beat the shit out of them.”
He continued: “And they just believe that they’re having fun with each other. So when you take Andre Harrell and Russell Simmons, Uptown, Def Jam — freaky shit.
“Puffy get his intern stuff with Andre Harrell. You know the answer already. That started his journey. Puffy started some journeys. It’s not really good to name call, but it gotta stop. But so I don’t get sued, I gotta use the word ‘allegedly.’”

Suge Knight and Diddy have been longtime rivals, and this isn’t the first time that the former has taken a shot at his adversary on his podcast.
Back in December, the 58-year-old shared a photo of him with Puff’s son Justin when he was a toddler – the image is believed to have been taken during the height of the East Coast-West Coast feud.

Also seen on the edge of the photo is Justin’s mother, Misa Hylton, who was a stylist for artists like Mary J. Blige and Lil Kim.
It was previously revealed by DJ Quik that she hung out with Knight and the Death Row crew on the night of the infamous 1995 Source Awards, which is where the photo might have been taken.
During an appearance on the Questlove Supreme podcast in 2019, Quik said: “We were there, and Suge had Misa come over — Diddy’s baby mama. A lot of people don’t know this. I’m going, ‘Suge, what are you doing? Like, what the fuck? That’s Diddy’s baby mama!’ She was just like, hanging out, whatever.”
