Cheyenne Roundtree's Book 'Bad Boy for Life' Examines Sean Combs Allegations
In her new book "Bad Boy for Life," Rolling Stone investigative reporter Cheyenne Roundtree examines the pattern of behavior that has defined the life of music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs. Roundtree was shocked by a November 2023 lawsuit filed against Combs by his ex-girlfriend, singer Cassie Ventura, who alleged that during their ten-year relationship Combs beat and raped her, administered drugs to her, and forced her into sexual acts with male sex workers. Combs's lawyers initially denied all allegations. Roundtree, like much of the global media, was taken aback. "I grew up in the era of Diddy and Cassie and saw them as this power couple," she says. "Their hit 'Me & U' was my favorite." The book reveals a disturbing pattern running through Combs's life. The article is published in the current issue of Der Freitag.
