RAPPER Kid Cudi ended the second week of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ federal trial with a dramatic testimony..

Cudi, real name Scott Mescudi, testified on Thursday, detailing an unsettling encounter linked to his brief relationship with Cassie Ventura, Diddy’s on-and-off partner at the time.

According to Mescudi, in December 2011, he was spending Christmas with Cassie and her family when she called him early one morning.

She had just spoken to an employee of Combs, who sounded “very scared” and claimed Combs and another man were inside Mescudi’s Hollywood Hills home.

When Mescudi contacted Combs, he recalled Combs telling him, “I just want to talk to you” and admitting he was at the house, “Waiting for you.”

By the time Mescudi arrived home, Combs had already left. But signs of the break-in were clear.

Cudi told the court: “I was looking for [Combs]. I wanted to confront him, I wanted to fight him, you know?” Instead, he chose to contact the police.

Mescudi later confronted Combs over the phone. “You broke into my house and messed with my dog,” he said. “I don’t want to talk to you.”

Weeks later, Mescudi’s Porsche 911 convertible was set on fire while parked outside his home. He claimed someone threw a Molotov cocktail into the car.

While Combs has denied any involvement in the arson, Mescudi’s timeline suggests the events were not unrelated.

Fellow hip-hop artist Kanye West hit back at Cudi, saying he should not have testified against Diddy. 

Ye tweeted: “I wish Cudi hadn’t testified against Puff. We need to not be locked in white systems.”
