If you can recall, anarchy ensued after the 2013 VMA’s when J. Cole and Kendrick Lamar ran into Diddy at an after-party. An incensed Diddy reportedly took issue with Kendrick dubbing himself the “King of New York” on his viral “Control” verse and a situation popped off causing J. Cole to intervene.

At the time of the incident, reports surfaced that Diddy attempted to pour a drink on Kendrick, and Cole stopped him causing a scuffle between their respective entourages.

Punch isn’t the first to tell the story of this scuffle, however; HipHopDx reports that on the R&B Money podcast, Punch said that Diddy allegedly threatened to do more than just use his hands at the time.

During the podcast’s “I Ain’t Saying No Names” segment, Punch set the scene for hosts Tank and J. Valentine with juuuust enough detail for us to fill in the blanks.

“The homie just did this song, right?” he said referencing Kendrick Lamar. “Piss the gang of people off. Everybody was mad at it. When the song came out, he was overseas, then he came back to the States. First place we stopped in was New York City and the first thing we do is say, ‘Let’s go to the club’ because we want to check the temperature, see what everybody was on — LA stuff,” Punch added about Kendrick’s industry-shaking “Control” verse.

“We get to the club. One of the homies approached us and [was] talking about this particular record. So we’re going back and forth: ‘Oh, it’s not personal. It’s just this, this and that. It’s cool, whatever, whatever,'” he continued.

“Another one of the homies walk up, he look drunk [and] said, ‘Yeah, y’all n***as need to go back and forth and keep it on wax or whatever, whatever, whatever.’ So the two dudes who approached, they get into a little back and forth, little argument with each other now. What we didn’t know is they got into an argument before we got there. They were continuing it,” Punch said, seemingly referring to Diddy and J. Cole.

See what Punch seemingly said about Diddy and J. Cole going from exchanging words to alleged cutthroat threats after the flip.
