P Diddy has been in the news this week as his homes in Miami and Los Angeles were raided, prompting an old video of Diddy and Justin Bieber to go viral for Diddy’s comments in it
Justin Bieber and P Diddy‘s relationship started when Justin’s career took off as a teenager – and has become talked about on the internet ever since Diddy’s homes were raided this week in connection to sex trafficking.
The two have been connected since early on in Justin’s career. Justin was 15 when he was signed to Usher’s record label and taken under the wing of the Caught Up hitmaker.
Around this time, a video deemed “creepy” online was made of Diddy and Justin where the music producer claimed he was “given custody” of Justin via Usher. “He’s signed to Usher and I had legal guardianship of Usher when he did his first album,” Diddy continued as he stood next to the teenage Justin in the video. “I don’t have legal guardianship of him [Bieber] but for the next forty-eight hours he’s with me and we’re gonna go full crazy,” Diddy continued in the now-viral video.

The two had seemingly started to hang out regularly after that clip. However, things seemed to shift as Justin’s career continued to take off. Two years later, another video came out of Diddy and Justin, where Diddy asked Justin why he didn’t hang out with him anymore. Diddy tells the 17-year-old: “You’re starting to act different huh? You ain’t been calling me and hanging out the way we used to hang out.”
“Well, I mean, you try to get in contact with me you know through all my, you know, partners, and whatnot, but you never really got my number, so want my number?” Justin responded.
It seems that the two were able to exchange numbers and remain in touch over the years.
Justin Bieber featured on P Diddy’s album after initial rejection
The now 30-year-old singer was featured on Diddy’s latest album, The Love Album: Off The Grid, on a song called Moments.
When the album was released last September, Justin penned a heartfelt message to the producer. “I remember going to my brother Diddy’s office to pitch him a song I wrote for him when I was like 14, sadly the song was trash haha,” he wrote on his Instagram Story.
“And it would be a hard no from him, fast forward to a few years ago Puff asked if I would freestyle something for his upcoming love album. Wild full circle moment, love you @diddy,” the post continued.
