Tyrese has publicly defended Diddy after his homes in Los Angeles and Miami were raided by Homeland Security following and investigation of alleged sex trafficking and more.

Many stars have spoken out in defense of Diddy, mentioning his “inspirational” career, his family and even shady phrases that have been made by his own peers, like “Diddy Do It?” Now, Tyrese has issued an open letter on Instagram about Diddy, which has since been deleted.

“What I can’t do and what I won’t do is downplay the laughter, the fun, the energy, the inspiration, the award shows the studio sessions the most legendary parties and events I’ve ever attended in my life,” he wrote. “I also can’t act as if my high school backyard parties throughout south central LA wasn’t the craziest parties ever because of the Bad Boy on slew of hit record.”

On the other hand, the R&B crooner did mention that he does not condone any acts of abuse or assault, but has open ears for the former Revolt TV CEO if he wants to talk.

“I don’t condone nor do I support abuse, bullying sexual assault or anything that is currently being alleged but what I can’t do is turn the blinds on how much this mean to me and all of us, and what he has done for the community of music and culture,” he continued. “I’m praying for Diddy his kids, his family, his mother, and all of the alleged victims that’s in the middle of trying to simply have their voices to be heard.”

He added, “I love this brother he’s been nothing but kind and generous towards me and that’s the way I feel praying and praying for more of a better outcome of all of this is happening, God bless you Diddy if you ever need to call me and just need a listening here I’m right here bro…..”

Slim Thug also took to social media a day after Diddy was raided to call out the “world of Hip-Hop” for encouraging the demise of the music mogul.

“We can’t just really go off of he-say, she-say,” Slim began before later saying, “Its tough to see so many people want to see him crash out like this. I don’t want to see a Black man who came so far, almost to a billion dollars, fall down. That’s our inspiration. It ain’t too many of us. They took Kanye down. We losing another billionaire over allegations at this point. Still ain’t no criminal charges.”
