The latest musician to be alleged of sexual assault is the American rapper, Sean Diddy Combs, who has had to change his name from Puffy, Diddy, Puff Daddy, P. Diddy to Sean Diddy Combs. He was sued on Monday, February 26, 2024, by a music producer who filed a suit in Federal court in New York, accusing Combs of repeated instances of unsolicited groping and sexual touching.
The producer further claimed Combs made him solicit prostitutes and pressured him to have sex with them.
The producer was also said to have woken up in bed with two sex workers, suspecting he had been drugged.
Combs had earlier been accused by a lady of raping her two decades ago when she was 17.
Besides Combs, several American singers and entertainment legends have had to be accused of sexual assault and rape, including child molestation.
It could be recalled that the popular American Singer, Sting, had his illustrious music career tainted as a result of an allegation of sexual assault by 15-year-old Jane, whom he committed statutory rape with.
It took Sting years before he could revive his music career, having to battle with the blemish sustained from the case of sexual assault.
Likewise, the late Michael Jackson had to grapple with several lawsuits in connection with paedophile in 2005 and 2019.
Next to Jackson in order of rank in sexual assault allegations was the popular R&B singer, Rowland Kelly aka R Kelly, who as of today languishes in jail, having his blossoming career dwindled and shattered.
So were several others who could not put their libido under control, and were clamped to jail, comprising the renowned music producer, Dr. Luke, Ryan Adams, famous record producer, Russell Simmons, Charlie Walk, and rapper 6ix9ine aka Tekashi69.
At home here in Nigeria, popular Fuji musician, Abass Obesere Akande, was once accused of rape by one Olanike Olaiya.
African China, Timaya, and Brymo were at one time or the other also accused of sexual misconduct or the other.
Musicians must learn how to tame their sexual drive. They must be well aware of all that constitutes improper behaviour around women.
They need to be wary of women when they find themselves around them so that they don’t fall victim to false sexual assault now and then.
