Usher‘s interview about living with Sean “Diddy” Combs for a year when he was just 14 years old has resurfaced in the wake of the embattled music mogul being investigated by Home Security Investigations reportedly for sex trafficking allegations.

The “Yeah!” singer talked about the “curious” experience in an August 2016 interview on The Howard Stern Show, in which he shared what it was like moving from his native Atlanta to New York City to live with Diddy for a year to take part in Diddy’s so-called “Puffy Flavor Camp.”

“In the ’90s. Do you understand what that’s like?” Usher said, to which Stern replied with, “Puffy’s place was just filled with chicks and orgying like non-stop, right?”

“Nah, not really,” Usher responded. “It was curious. I got a chance to see some things. I went there to see the lifestyle. And I saw it. But I don’t know if I could indulge and understand what I was even looking at. It was pretty wild. It was crazy.”

It’s worth remembering that Usher was only a teenager at the time, which could explain why he says he wasn’t sure if he could indulge and understand what was going on at Diddy’s home in the Big Apple. When Stern’s sidekick, Robin Quivers, asked if a woman ever came along and tried something with him, Usher quickly interjected. 

“I didn’t say that. I didn’t say that. What I did say is that there were very curious things taking place and I didn’t necessarily understand it,” he said.

Usher said a slew of hip-hop legends roamed Diddy’s home when he lived there, and that had Quivers wondering if Usher’s parents were OK with the arrangement.

“They didn’t know anything about this s**t,” Usher said. “I was having a good time, you know what I mean?” 

But the real kicker came when Stern asked Usher if, as a young father at the time, he’d ever send one of his kids to “Puffy Camp.” 

“Hell no,” the singer responded.

Usher’s interview is resurfacing just days after federal agents raided Diddy’s homes in Los Angeles and Miami in what Homeland Security Investigations said was part of an ongoing investigation. It’s been reported that the probe, being helmed by the Southern District of New York, is tied to sex trafficking allegations.

The raids came four months after R&B singer Cassie Ventura sued Diddy and accused him of rape, among other allegations of wrongdoing. Though the rap mogul settled the lawsuit within 24 hours, it set off a litany of sexual misconduct allegations.

It remains unclear if the slew of lawsuits that Diddy’s facing is tied to the federal investigation.

In a statement to ET, Diddy’s attorney, Aaron Dyer, blasted the feds for its “gross overuse of military-level force” amid the execution of search warrants.

“There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated,” Dyer continued. “Mr. Combs was never detained but spoke to and cooperated with authorities. Despite media speculation, neither Mr. Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested nor has their ability to travel been restricted in any way. This unprecedented ambush — paired with an advanced, coordinated media presence — leads to a premature rush to judgment of Mr. Combs and is nothing more than a witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits. There has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations. Mr. Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every single day to clear his name.”
