Diddy To Be Honored At The Apollo With Icon Award

Icons only! Sean Love Combs — also known by his various names Puff Daddy, P. Diddy, Diddy and most recently Love — is recieving the Apollo Icon Award in Harlem, New York. The Spring Benefit 2023 is taking place at the Apollo Theater in his hometown. It started at 7pm EST, and it is honoring Jonelle Procope.

What is The Spring Benefit?

The New York native announced on his Instagram story, “Harlem! I’m coming home. Pull up to the Apollo tonight! It’s going to be one of them Harlem nights!!” It is a signature fundraiser celebrating the Theater’s rich legacy and the culture built upon it. This event brings New York City elites outside from all backgrounds including business, entertainment and philanthropic communities. The money earned tonight supports the not-for-profit organization’s important performing arts, education and community initiatives.

Diddy’s Son Arrested For DUI

Sean Combs’ career is remarkable from launching Bad Boy Records to partnership with Ciroc vodka. A career with highs and lows, but he managed to climb his way back to the top every time. This monumental moment occurring as his son, Justin Combs, was arrested for DUI in L.A on June 4, 2023. He was booked on misdemeanor charges and released on a $5,000 bond. Justin’s mother, Misa Hylton, later blamed Diddy after their son’s arrest. She did not hold back, getting a few jabs in on his newest song with the City Girls and Fabulous “Act Bad.” The fashion designer wrote in her Instagram story, “Act BAD BAD boy. I used to want to be a BAD Girl, I chose to be a QUEEN tried and true. I’m not perfect but I am INTENTIONAL.”

Puff and Misa Make Peace?

However, the pair seemed to make amends as they had a friendly exchange on Instagram. The music mogul shared a video on Instagram and used the hashtag “#f***itfriday.” Hylton agreed under the clip saying, “YUP that’s how I feel everyday.” The Bad Boys executive’s response was, “I love you queen. Stay in the light.” But according to People, the comments are no longer there.

The first game put Waka Flocka Flame’s “Brick Squad Monopoly” against Joyner Lucas’ “Tully All-Stars”.

The Rules

Each team will play 4 on 4 to a score of 21. Players can only score by 1’s and 2’s and teams must win by 2. Each team is only given 7 fouls per half. After the 7 fouls, free throws will be shot but only the team captains can shoot free throws. Everyone will play on a shortened court.

Waka Flocka Flame Vs Joyner Lucas Pre-Game

Before the game started, the trash talking was already in the air. Waka Flocka was one of the first to start talking about the other team.

“They Boston Baked Beans”- Waka Flocka Flame

Joyner Lucas laughed at the comment made by Waka. Joyner was not impressed with his opponent Waka Flocka Flame and this only added to his lack of concern.

Game 1, First Half

Tully All-Stars won the tip-off and eventually Joyner Lucas got the ball. Waka Flocka took the assignment to guard him. Joyner hit Waka with a pump fake, which made Waka jump. Joy Lucas quickly headed for the goal and got an easy layup.

The next nine points was much more difficult to score for both teams. Both teams were at ten points, trying to send the game into halftime. The game only goes to halftime when one team gets to 11 points. Brick Squad sent the game into halftime by hitting a three, which is only worth two points. At halftime, Brick Squad led 12 to 10.

Waka Flocka Flame Vs Joyner Lucas Halftime

During the first half, G Herbo was watching the game but he was not just watching the game in regular fashion. Harbor was getting his haircut in the Brick Squad Barbershop. Instantly, the time Allen Iverson was getting his hair braided during a game comes to mind.

Waka Flocka had no points at the half but Joyner Lucas scored four points. The on-court host pulled the team captains to the middle of the court to discuss the first half and exceptions for the second.

Nems first asked Joyner, “How will the second half go?”

“We gone scrape them”- Joyner Lucas

Game 1, Second Half

Brick Squad went on a 5-1 run during the second half. The game quickly became 17 to 11 with Tully All-Stars down by five points. Joyner Lucas called a time-out to try and stop the run.

The time-out helped Tully. Somehow, Tully worked their way back into the game and tied it up 18-18. With the game so close, anybody could take the W.

Waka Flocka scored his first point but Joyner Lucas’ team returned the favor by taking the lead. Tully All-Stars had a 20 to 19 lead over their opps, all they had to do was score one point for the win. Tully missed the game winning bucket allowing Brick Squad to tie the game up, 20-20.

The ending of the game was crazy. Tully tried to inbound the ball but Phil Taylor steals the ball and passes it to Justin Tuoyo, who hits the game-winner. Brick Squad wins the game 22-20.

The next game will be between NLE Choppa and Baby Face Ray.

The argument ensued after the coach told Justin Combs to “go home and not return until the end of the Summer”. Once Diddy found his son at home, he went to the campus to inquire about his son being thrown out of practice.
