In a shocking revelation, former Bad Boy Entertainment artist Tanya Blount has opened up about her experiences at Diddy’s infamous label, detailing the manipulative environment and the disturbing “freak-off” sessions that allegedly took place. Tanya, who was once on the brink of becoming a major star, shared how refusing to participate in these sessions cost her everything—her career, her home, and nearly her life.
Tanya Blount, known for her powerful duet with Lauryn Hill in Sister Act 2, was poised to become a household name in the ’90s. After signing with Bad Boy Entertainment, she began work on her second album, but her career mysteriously stalled. Rumors now suggest that Tanya’s refusal to engage in Diddy’s notorious “freak-offs”—wild parties where artists were pressured into compromising acts—led to her being blackballed from the industry.
According to insiders, Diddy’s control over his artists extended beyond music, with many being pressured into disturbing situations. Tanya, however, walked away, choosing to preserve her dignity. But this decision came at a steep cost. Tanya’s career spiraled, and she found herself homeless and battling severe depression. At one point, she even attempted to take her own life.
Despite these hardships, Tanya found a way to rebuild. She turned to faith, married gospel singer Michael Trotter Jr., and together they formed the duo The War and Treaty, making soulful, spiritual music. Tanya has since opened up about the mental toll her time at Bad Boy took, but she remains proud of staying true to her values, unlike many who were drawn into Diddy’s dark world.
Now, with multiple lawsuits and allegations piling up against Diddy, Tanya’s story is resurfacing, reminding fans of the toxic environment that many artists endured under his label. Today, Tanya is living proof that even the infamous “Bad Boy Curse” can be overcome with resilience and faith.
Fans are praising Tanya for her courage, while many are now revisiting the tragic fates of other Bad Boy artists who weren’t as fortunate. As Diddy faces legal scrutiny, more and more people are calling for justice for those who were silenced by the power dynamics of the industry.
Tanya Blount’s survival story is a testament to the strength it takes to walk away from fame when the cost is your soul.
