Sean Diddy Combs will reportedly not be attending the biggest awards ceremonies of 2024. 

According to several weekend reports, the legendary rapper will not be attending the Grammy Awards due to charges against him by several women. 

This is despite him being nominated for Best Progressive R&B Album for his record, 'The Love Album: Off the Grid'. The last time Diddy competed for a Grammy was twenty years ago in 2004 when he won Best Rap Performance By A Group or Duo for 'Shake Ya Tailfeather', which he created with Nelly and Murphy Lee.

Diddy is accused by four women of sexual abuse and trafficking. One of the allegations is that the rapper and former Bad Boy Records president Harve Pierre allegedly gang-raped a 17-year-old girl inside Combs’ recording studio in Manhattan in 2003.

Due to all the allegations, a representative for the musician told The Hollywood Reporter that Diddy will be missing the Grammy Awards. 

The awards will take place in Los Angeles on 4 February at the Crypto.com Arena. 

Diddy has denied the allegations. 

On 6 December, he took to social media to state that he is innocent. 

“Enough is enough. For the last couple of weeks, I have sat silently and watched people try to assassinate my character, destroy my reputation and my legacy," he wrote on Instagram. 

He claimed those who are accusing him want financial gain. 

"Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday," he wrote. 

He denied that he assaulted the women. 

“Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged," he wrote. 

Lastly, Diddy said he will fight for the truth to win. 

"I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth,” Combs concluded.
