Kid Cudi to Testify in Diddy’s Explosive Sex Trafficking Trial

By jesse May 21, 2025

New York, NY — The highly publicized federal sex trafficking trial against music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs is set to escalate even further this week, with Kid Cudi expected to take the witness stand as early as Friday.

According to newly released court documents, two additional witnesses are scheduled to testify before Cudi, who will provide testimony that ties directly into Cassie’s allegations of abuse and retaliation during her long-term relationship with Diddy.

Cudi and Cassie: A Key Relationship in the Trial

Cassie, who dated Diddy for nearly a decade, took the stand earlier this month and revealed intimate and disturbing details about their relationship—including claims of physical abuse, threats, and intimidation.

One of the most shocking moments in her testimony involved her brief 2011 relationship with Kid Cudi, which allegedly occurred during a rough patch in her relationship with Diddy. Cassie stated that Diddy discovered the romance after reading emails on her phone during a private gathering, which she described as a “freak off session.”

She testified that after learning about the affair, Diddy flew into a violent rage, threatening both her and Cudi. She claimed he lunged at her with a corkscrew gripped between his knuckles and later made a disturbing threat: “He was going to hurt Scott and me.” (Kid Cudi’s legal name is Scott Mescudi.)

“Blow Up Cudi’s Car” Threat Becomes Reality

Cassie further alleged that Diddy once threatened to blow up Kid Cudi’s car to intimidate her and send a message to Cudi’s inner circle. “Sean wanted Scott’s friends to see Scott’s car get blown up,” she told the court.

Shockingly, a representative for Kid Cudi later confirmed that his car was in fact blown up, although no official link to Diddy has been established. Diddy’s legal team previously dismissed the allegation, stating: “It’s clear the government doesn’t know who set fire to the vehicle or how it relates to Mr. Combs, who denies any involvement.”

Trial Continues with Celebrity Fallout

Cassie’s testimony has opened the floodgates on a series of past incidents involving Diddy and other celebrities. She also claimed Diddy exhibited intense jealousy when he suspected her of being romantically involved with actor Michael B. Jordan in 2016—though it remains unclear whether Jordan will be called to testify.

As Kid Cudi prepares to appear in court, his testimony is expected to lend credibility to Cassie’s narrative, especially regarding the alleged retaliation and violence she claims followed their brief romance.

The trial continues to grip the public and media, shining a harsh spotlight on one of the most powerful figures in hip-hop.
