Diddy's Ex Misa Hylton Appears to Show Her Support, Reflects on the Creation of Bad Boy Records: 'Were You Not Entertained'

Misa Hylton, the mother of Sean 'Diddy' Combs' first child Justin Combs, shared some intimate insight into the development of Bad Boy Records in an Instagram post this week.

Hylton recounted Diddy's beginnings as a music mogul in the caption under photos of herself pregnant with Justin, her then infant son sitting with Diddy, Craig Mack, and The Notorious B.I.G. during the 'B.I.G. Mack' campaign, and her and Diddy at that time.

As Hylton recalls, she was pregnant with Justin, who was born on December 30, 1993, around the same time Diddy was fired by Uptown Records A&R executive Andre Harrell.

"1993. I was pregnant. Puffy just got fired from Uptown records. Dre said there cannot be two Kings in a castle. He was right. It comes a time," Hylton wrote in the caption. "Puffy was scared. He had a child on the way and we just moved into a Big beautiful new home. He had me call Dre and ask for his job back several times. Dre stood on business. The same way a father would when it's time for his son to make that move."

Not only did Hylton encourage Diddy, but assured the now-54-year-old that he "was a mastermind."

"He just had to do exactly what he had been doing successfully at Uptown Records. Just for himself now," she said.

Hylton detailed how Bad Boy Records "started in our basement in Scarsdale, NY," with Mack's "Flava in Ya Ear" as the label's first breakout hit after being played by Funk Flex.

"It's Bad Boyyyyyyy," Hylton wrote. "My Life Story. My experience. Beside every Bad Boy was a Bad gyal!"

She then urges followers not to "come here with any negativity" but to "try praying for everyone involved," adding, "You cannot erase history and cultural impact." Hylton continues to assert the "legacy" of Bad Boy Records and its contentious founder, at a time when Combs currently faces a federal sex trafficking investigation.

"This is also OUR legacy. EVERY single person whose blood, sweat, tears, talent and business acumen went into this movement. WERE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED WERE YOU NOT INSPIRED??!" she exlaimed.

Hylton concluded the post by clarifying that she turned 20 seven days after Justin's birth, potentially in an attempt to throw the accusations against Diddy into question.

"For a while the internet had my age wrong. I said hey leave it Stop believing everything on the internet," she wrote.

In response to the post, many considered Hylton's statement offensive and confusing, especially considering just months ago she wrote about being "heartbroken" for singer and model Casandra 'Cassie' Ventura, who was abused by Diddy.

"I am heartbroken that Cassie must relive the horror of her abuse, and my heart goes out to her. I know exactly how she feels, and through my empathy, it has triggered my own trauma," Hylton wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post.
