Diddy slams former Bad Boy Rapper, Shyne, with cease and desist letter over new Documentary on 1999 Nightclub shooting incident featuring Jennifer Lopez

Sean “Diddy” Combs has issued a cease and desist letter to his ex-protégé Moses “Shyne” Barrow over the new documentary he released.

The former Bad Boy Records rapper had made a number of revelations in the new documentary, including his belief that he was the “fall guy” for the music mogul in the 1999 NYC nightclub shooting.

The incident resulted in Shyne receiving a 10-year prison sentence for his involvement, while Diddy walked away without any jail term.

Born Jamal Barrow, Shyne was infamously at a Manhattan nightclub in 1999 with his pal and boss, Diddy, and the Bad Boy Records founder’s then-gal pal, Jennifer Lopez.

An altercation broke out between Combs and another man when guns were drawn, shots were fired and three bystanders were injured. Shyne and Combs went on trial in 2001, but only his protégé was convicted of assault and reckless endangerment.

Shyne, who is now a politician in Belize, served eight years in jail.

In the new doc, Shyne says Combs’ ways are now “coming to light,” and that he thinks he was the “fall guy” for the Sean John founder. “Because when I said it [at the time], everyone was partying and having a great time with Diddy while I was left to rot in prison,” he says in the film that follows his journey from a short-lived rapping career to becoming a politician.

He previously told The Post of his conviction: “I grew up [being told] to not get my friends in trouble. And that’s what it really boiled down to, integrity about character.”

He said in an interview promoting the film that he believed he was protecting Diddy, but claims the hitmaker, “got witnesses to testify against me, to say that basically I was this uncontrollable person that was acting in a depraved manner, which was the furtherest from the truth.”

He said he did not want to, “break the code of honor, which is that you don’t get people in trouble.”

Diddy’s reps blasted his comments, telling Page Six: “Mr. Combs categorically denies Mr. Barrow’s allegations, including any suggestion that he orchestrated Mr. Barrow to ‘take the fall’ or ‘sacrificed’ him by directing witnesses to testify against him. These claims are unequivocally false.”

The reps added: “Mr. Combs was acquitted of all charges related to the [1999 incident] and has consistently maintained his innocence,” and, “Mr. Combs appreciates the path Mr. Barrow has pursued and wishes him continued success. It is unfortunate that Mr. Barrow has chosen to revisit these allegations.”
