Yung Miami is riding for Sean “Diddy” Combs, even as public opinion on the incarcerated mogul has changed over the last three years.
The “Watch Dis” rapper, real name Caresha Brownlee, was a guest on “The Breakfast Club” to promote her new album, and amid numerous topics that came up, she found herself at her most fiery in defense of her own perception.
When asked if she felt that her love was taken for granted, the “Spend Dat” rapper quickly denied such an idea.
“I feel like at the end of the day, we showed up for each other,” she said. “I never had nobody that kinda met me where I was, if that makes sense. I never had nobody celebrate me.”
The couple dated from 2021 through 2023, confirming in an interview with The Cut that they were no more. Still, despite the relationship’s end, the Miami rapper never spoke unkindly about Diddy, even as the general public weighed in on his sex crimes trial and the relationship between him and Yung Miami became tabloid fodder. Plenty of the rumors, including whether she transported drugs for Combs, cut through and despite denying the allegations, she felt “lied on.”
“All that sh-t was fake,” she said. “When it comes to the truth, nobody’s reporting that, nobody’s saying ‘I was wrong’ or ‘I apologize.’ That’s not cool. I would never do no sh-t like that. I would never let a n-gga put me in a position like that.”
She added, “I’m not no dumbass b-tch or no City Girl. I’m a motherf-cking business woman and that’s why a n-gga came to me and did business with me and that’s how I was able to be the No. 1 podcast on Revolt. They say, ‘Oh, she always with him.’ No, I’m not. I’m a f-cking great mom. I take care of my family. I take care of my household.”
In a previous conversation with Charlamagne Tha God, she confirmed that, because of her association with Combs, she lost relationships and deals. Additionally, she received public backlash after writing a letter to Judge Arun Subramanian requesting leniency regarding Combs’ sentencing on sex crimes charges. He was eventually sentenced to serve 50 months behind bars.
Looking back, she laughed at people who hoped to wish Combs well while he is currently incarcerated, but wouldn’t want to do it publicly and instead used her as a mediator.
“So many people are like, ‘You still talk to him? Tell him I said what’s up,’ No, you say it!” she said.
