J. Coleâs manager and Dreamville cofounder Ibrahim âIBâ Hamad shared more details about the infamous âscrapâ between his Cole and Diddy.
Hamad shed more light on the âaltercationâ between the two Hip-Hop stars during a recent interview on the
Say Less podcast. Before this interview, Cole already confirmed the 2013 fight went down on the
Off-Season track  âLet Go My Hand,â which ironically features an outro from Diddy himself. In the song, Simba raps, âMy last scrap was with Puff Daddy, who wouldâve thought it?â
Around the 12-minute mark of the 2-hour episode, Hamad spoke on the incident saying, âThe Puff story⦠I just remember hearing about it and laughing. Cause I was there.â
The Off-Season cut.
J. Cole’s manager Ibrahim “IB” Hamad joined the
Say Less podcast on Monday (May 24) and while he doesn’t paint the full picture of the infamous Cole-Diddy nightclub scuffle, he does provide some clarity on a few key details of what transpired throughout the night.
One that was for sure, IB made sure to hammer home that the altercation had nothing to do with J. Cole standing up for Kendrick Lamar, which was a rumor that spread online in the days following the August 2013 incident.
“It was definitely not like he was defending Kendrick or something,” he said. “It wasn’t like, ‘Don’t talk to Kendrick like that!’ Kendrick was there, Top was there, [JAY-Z] was there, Beyoncé was there. Me and Cole. You know, grown men got a little heated. All I remember is, me and [JAY-Z] looking at each other like, ‘Oh, these n-ggas ‘bout to fight.’ And then just being like, ‘Oh no this is ‘bout to happen.’ I’ll leave it at that.”
