Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs will remain in jail as a US judge on Wednesday rejected the rapper’s motion to await his sex trafficking trial at his palatial Florida home instead of a Brooklyn federal prison. Amid the serious charges against him, an old video of Diddy with American rapper-singer Travis Scott is doing the rounds on social media.

Watch Diddy’s video with Travis Scott
In the clip, Travis can be seen running away from Diddy as he makes an alleged gesture. As expected, the internet is having a lot to say about this undated video, which shows Diddy putting his arm around Travis and calling him his ‘baby bro.’
Social media users are reacting not only to the way the two speak to each other – as if they were speaking in code words – but also to how Travis avoids eye contact with Diddy, before telling Diddy to “shut up” and running away screaming.
In the clip with Travis, Diddy said, “My dear brother, we hit it off. It’s time tomorrow. It’s time to do that thing man. Yeah, everybody tune in. Let’s go.”

‘Did Travis cover his behind and run?’
The conversation between Travis and Diddy in the resurfaced video has sparked speculation on social media. An X user tweeted, “Travis Scott knew what Diddy meant.” Another asked, “Did he (Travis) run hiding his butt? LOL.” One tweet also read, “He (Travis) looks guilty… looking down, avoiding eye contact…”
Reacting to the Instagram post on the video, one person said, “I really want to know why he (Travis) made so much noise and ran on the road?” Another said about Travis, “He was so excited…”
One comment also read, “I’m sure everyone he (Diddy) has ever dealt with in these antics is shaking, nervous, scared and caught out right now. Man, this is gonna be huge.” One person also said, “I have a feeling a lot is gonna come out!! Everyone who was associated with him (Diddy) is like (scared face emoji).”
Allegations Against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs
Earlier, US authorities raided Diddy’s homes in Los Angeles and Florida, where drugs, videos and more than 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant were seized, prosecutors said.
Diddy is accused of using his “power and prestige” to lure female victims and male sex workers into drugged sexual activities, known as “freak offs.” These acts were something he arranged, participated in, and often recorded on video. The indictment states that these acts often lasted for several days, and that Diddy and the victims were often given IV fluids to recover.
The indictment alleges that the rapper, with the help of his network of associates and employees, coerced and abused women over several years, while using blackmail and violent acts, including kidnapping, arson and physical assault, to prevent the victims from speaking out. In the latest case, Diddy will remain in jail after being denied bail for a second time on Wednesday.
