Resurfaced footage of Diddy explaining how to throw an 'amazing' party goes viral after rapper's arrest

A decades-old video of Diddy has resurfaced following the rapper's recent arrest.

Diddy, real name Sean Combs, was arrested in New York on Monday (September 16) and has since been slapped with a number of charges.

He's now in custody and will remain so up until his trail after a judge rejected his two bail requests.

The rapper is being held at Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn which has previously housed disgraced music star R. Kelly.

An unsealed indictment revealed that Diddy has been accused of having 'abused, threatened, and coerced women and other around him to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct,' along with using 'employees, resources, and influence of the multi-faceted business empire that he led and controlled' to 'attempt to engage in, among other crimes, sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice'.

Several of the allegations in the indictment are linked to Diddy's parties, which were known as 'Freak Offs'.

He made reference to the nature of his parties on several occasions, including in a 2002 interview with Conan O'Brien which is currently doing the rounds online.

Asking what Diddy needed for a good party, he said 'beautiful women', 'beautiful men for the ladies', numerous types of alcohol, but also water as apparently 'a lot of ladies drink water at parties'.

"If you don't have what they need then they gon' leave," he added.

Diddy went on: "You got to keep' em there. You need locks on the doors."

The crowd laughed at his remarks, but O'Brien suggested that it was 'sounding kind of dangerous now'.

The rapper admitted that it was 'a little kinky' before explaining that at his parties he doesn't put the air conditioning on.

"Heat affects the alcohol," Diddy claimed. "It also affects, like, everyone gets a little bit more comfortable and loose. [It] builds up a nice little sweat."

While Diddy seemed quite confident that his theory made sense, O'Brien said that it actually sounded 'disgusting'.

Following Diddy's arrest, his lawyer Marc Agnifilo said: "We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the US Attorney’s Office.

"Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs is a music icon, self-made entrepreneur, loving family man, and proven philanthropist who has spent the last 30 years building an empire, adoring his children, and working to uplift the Black community.

"He is an imperfect person but is not criminal."

Diddy could face 15 years behind bars if found guilty of all the charges he's facing.

He's yet to have his trial date set.
