Fat Joe said he was praying for Dee Dee and his family following recent Homeland Security raids on his properties in Los Angeles and Miami. Speaking about the situation on “Hot 97” on Friday, Joe explained that he and Diddy have been friends for decades and described the show as a nightmare.
“What I can say in the most respectful way is that I don’t know all the details,” he said. “But I’ve been praying for him and his family. He’s been a friend of mine for 30 years. So, I’ll see what the outcome is and I’ll pray for the best for him, his family and everybody involved. So, I’ll see what the outcome is. I’m not disrespecting anyone. I’m just praying for this whole situation – this whole nightmare – I’m praying that it goes away.”

Agents reportedly searched Diddy’s property to investigate alleged sex trafficking. Diddy’s attorney Aaron Dyer quickly issued a statement defending his client after the house was raided. “Yesterday, gross excessive use of military force was used while executing a search warrant at Mr. Coombs’ residence,” he explained. “There is no excuse for the excessive force and hostility shown by the authorities, or the way he treated his children and employees. Mr. Combs was never taken into custody but spoke with and cooperated with authorities. Despite media speculation, Mr. Combs and None of his family members have been arrested, nor have their ability to travel been restricted in any way.” Check out Joe’s comments about the situation below.
