Barrow, who currently lives in Belize, explained he was 18 when he started working with Diddy, sharing he wanted "to do nothing other than make my mother proud and make Belize proud."
Sean 'Diddy' Combs is awaiting trial after being charged with s-- trafficking and racketeering. mega
"Just wanting … [to] be recognized for my talent and take over the world," he continued before shockingly revealing, "I was defending him and he turned around and called witnesses to testify against me. He pretty much sent me to prison."
In 1999, Barrow, 45, was convicted of first-degree assault after three people were injured in a shooting at a NYC club. Combs, 54, was also accused in the shooting but was acquitted after he said he fired his weapon in self-defense.
Barrow — who is now the Leader of the Opposition of Belize — spent 10 years in jail and was deported to Belize when he was freed in 2009.

The politician clarified that Diddy "is not someone who I vacationed with and someone who I enjoyed this great, intimate relationship of brotherhood."
"This is someone who destroyed my life , and who I forgave, and who I moved on, and for the better interest of Belize because he was in the position at that time to give scholarships and to maybe invest," he explained. "I would not deny attempting to bring the investment to Belize and bring the contributions to education."

The arrest came several months after the FBI raided his home in addition to more than one person accusing him of physical and sexual abuse.
Diddy was denied bail twice as he waits to go to trial. mega
"I hope he gets out. He has done everything somebody under investigation can do. I can't think of anything else that he could have done. There were no surprises here, Chris," he told Chris Cuomo on an episode of his NewsNation show. "We knew that he was under investigation for racketeering and s-- trafficking, and he stayed put."
"He committed not to fly out of the country. He stayed within the country, and they didn't ask that of him," the lawyer added. That was a commitment he made."
