Fans have been discussing JAY-Z’s friendship with Diddy.

Pictures of JAY-Z and Aaliyah with Diddy are resurfacing on social media, in the wake of the Bad Boy mogul’s arrest in New York City, last month. As caught by DJ Akademiks on Saturday, one of the pictures shows JAY appearing to hold hands with the late singer, Aaliyah. Diddy is currently facing charges of alleged sex trafficking and racketeering.

One user replied on X (formerly Twitter) to Akademiks’ post: “Don’t tell me they was trading her off because they say Damon Dash use to hit and then Jay-Z start hitting .. this pic prove they all was freaking off together.” Another wrote: “I’m holding out until the trial. I wanna see what actual accusations and actual evidence there is against p diddy. I will admit my gut is telling me Jay is a scumbag.”

Dame Dash is also alongside Aaliyah in many of the photos, but he’s already denied that anything inappropriate happened between them. Additionally, he’s turned attention to JAY-Z, asking why he hasn’t condemned Diddy over the allegations he’s facing. “As much as he’s been to me unfair toward, or not unfair, the way he’d be f*cking with my money, I want to hope that that’s the worst that he’s been doing,” Dame said of JAY during a recent interview with America Nu. “I would never want to hear like, ‘Jay at the freak off party’, that’s crazy. The sh*t they saying, and I just be wondering why nobody… he don’t say nothing about it.”

Diddy has already pleaded not guilty to the alleged crimes and plans to argue his case in court. JAY-Z isn’t formerly accused of anything in relation to the allegations.
