Well only a few days after rumors started circulating that Nicki had fired manager Diddy for Benny Medina, Diddy decides to speak out.

“I’m basically just as the industry changes, you gotta change with the industry just as a hustler,” Diddy told Funkmaster Flex. “I have a lot of knowledge I feel I have to give to artists and a lot of ways I can help their brand go to the next level. It has grown to be not just about me, not just about Bad Boy but the future brands that are coming up and the future super stars. I feel I have an obligation to help them and I feel there’s a way we can get some money together. As far as with [Rick] Ross, I feel we’ve done a great job. With the Nicki thing, that was even something me and her made sure we didn’t define or kept a mystery. So I don’t go around saying I’m her manager. We work together in a certain type of unofficial capacity. But I don’t really know where they really got that from. We still work together but it’s not about going around saying I’m her manager — she really does a lot of things by herself. And whatever ways I can assist the situation, or whatever that title is, that’s what I do. I play my position on the team…” (Hot 97)

Hmm… Seems to me like Nicki and Diddy have their signals crossed. Rumor has it that Nicki claims Diddy didnt do enough for her — but in Diddy’s statement, it seems like he never agreed to such terms. This is going to be very interesting. Stay tuned.
