During a recent interview with Yankees minority owner Patrick Bet-David on the PBD Podcast, Ice Cube opened up about his past work with the Bad Boy Entertainment founder , and shared his thoughts on the recent series of sexual assault allegations against him. Ice Cube initially recalled his brief professional interaction with Diddy, recalling his time working with him on the East Coast early in his career.
“He produced some records, or had his producers record some of them on my War and Peace album,” he said. “We flew to New York and I was mostly in the studio with his producer.”
While he noted that they were great to work with and said that his experience with Diddy was very positive, he did make it clear that he never attended any of the so-called “crazy” parties and claimed that he had none with Diddy touch.
He added, “I really lost touch with him and stopped dealing with Puffy around ’94.”

Ice Cube didn’t hold back when Bate David asked him how he personally feels about the recent accusations and whether he’s surprised by the legal trouble Diddy is facing.
“How could you be surprised by what’s happening in hip-hop?” he said. “Hip-hop is like the Wild West, so you’re going to have good things and you’re going to have bad things. You’re going to have ugly things.

“I don’t know enough to even be specific about these things,” he said. “It’s just all speculation. I just know he was calm in a way and then things started happening. So I’m sure someone, like I said, said, ‘Yo, he’s our new guy. We’re going to continue This year, or whatever.
