John Legend’s manager talks about ‘scary situation’ at Diddy’s party

Ty Stiklorius hopes the music industry can start over after the allegations against the rapper

Anomaly in the sector

Ty Stiklorius, manager of singer John Legend, spoke on Thursday (10/31) about the state of the music industry following the arrest of rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs. The executive wrote an opinion piece for the New York Times, in which she shared a “scary situation” she experienced with the artist.

In the text in which he reflects on the industry, Stiklorius shares his hope that the music sector can restart amid reports of violence. He also recounted an unpleasant episode he experienced during one of the rapper’s New Year’s Eve parties, which took place on a yacht on the Caribbean island of St. Barts, 27 years ago.

At the time, the businesswoman had just graduated and was surrounded by famous people on board the yacht. However, she claimed that “a man who appeared to be an associate of the party host” took her into a room, locking the door. “To this day, I can’t remember how I got out of that scary situation,” Ty described.

“Maybe my nervous stammering, ‘My brother is on this boat and he’s probably looking for me!’ convinced him to open the bedroom door to let me go,” the manager said, explaining that she didn’t know who this man was. ‘man. “or if he had any connection” to Diddy.

Common scenes in the artistic world

Ty Stiklorius also believed at the time that his “experience was an anomaly” and that he was “just a kid misbehaving at a drunken party.” The entrepreneur only realized the situation was “not an aberration” after working in the industry for two decades.

Sean “Diddy” Combs has been in prison since September on charges of abuse, sex trafficking, extortion and other crimes. The rapper has already accumulated more than 120 complaints from men and women. He has already been denied habeas corpus.
