Meek Mill is distancing himself from longtime pal Sean “Diddy” Combs after the hip-hop mogul was arrested and charged with sex trafficking.
In a video posted on Instagram Tuesday, a fan ran into the “Dreams and Nightmares” rapper and shared their brief interaction online.
“This real life. No Diddy gang. Meek Milly in real life. Don’t ever disrespect me, ya heard?” Meek, 37, said in the clip before getting into the back of a pricey Rolls Royce.
The video prompted a reaction from Combs’ 30-year-old son, Justin, who commented, “Smh 🤦🏾♂️.”
Page Six has reached out to Combs’ rep for comment but did not immediately hear back.
Meek — born Robert Rihmeek Williams — has been fighting to clear rumors about his sexuality amid the Bad Boy Records founder’s mounting legal woes.
In February, fans claimed the “Going Bad” emcee was one of the redacted names listed in a sexual assault lawsuit against Combs.
Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones claimed in the suit that Combs, 55, allegedly told him he had sex with an unnamed rapper, an R&B singer and Bad Boy producer Stevie J.
“Mr. Combs informed Mr. Jones that he had engaged in sexual intercourse with rapper (REDACTED), R&B singer (REDACTED), and Stevie J,” the lawsuit read.
A footnote in the complaint claimed the rapper in question was “a Philadelphia rapper who dated Nicki Minaj,” while the unknown R&B singer was described as someone who “performed at the Superbowl [sic] and had a successful Vegas residency.”
Meek was born and raised in Philadelphia and was in a high-profile relationship with the “Barbie World” rapper, whose real name is Onika Maraj, from 2015 to 2017.
After several fans flooded Meek’s social media with remarks about the lawsuit, he denied being gay.

“I’m from Philly I don’t do coke or freaky ass molly … nobody won’t even offer me coke because I’m that heavy …. No man or watt would ever approach me about gay activity and the whole place don’t get flipped … woke up seeing this on every blog like they know I’m coming! lol,” he tweeted Feb. 28.
The “Ima Boss” rapper then tweeted that he has sex “twice a day” when a woman is around him.
Stevie J — born Steven Jordan — also denied all allegations.
Despite Meek’s denial, the rumors about his sexuality continued to run rampant online.
In April, he doubled down against the allegations and claimed that the rumors were confusing his 12-year-old son.
Five months later, the two-time Grammy nominee said he would pay an investigative team $100,000 to find out if he was named in the sex crimes case against Combs.
“I also want them to look at who is powering the media involving ‘meek’ anything to do with buddy! ‘Something not right,’” the dad of three added.
Meanwhile, Combs was arrested on Sept. 16 and charged with racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution.
The dad of seven is currently behind bars at a Brooklyn detention center awaiting his trial, which is slated to begin on May 5.
The Sean John founder pleaded not guilty to the charges.
