Rapper Cam’ron went on CNN for the purpose of promoting his podcast, but the news network had other ideas.

Cam’ron, whose real name is Cameron Giles, was asked if he recognized Combs in the 2016 surveillance footage that shows Diddy assaulting Ventura.
“Everything in the video is egregious, I’m against,” the rapper said to Phillip. “So when I saw the video, I was kinda upset being that I know him.”
Phillip persisted with her line of questioning, to which a clearly frustrated Cam’ron clarified that he does not consider Combs a friend.
“I don’t know him like that. What do you mean, ‘Did I recognize him?’ I seen him,” he said.
“What do you mean, ‘My experiences?,’” he asked the host. “I seen him and I thought it was disgusting, I didn’t do a zoom in to see if it was really him or nothing, but he admitted it was him, so yeah, it was him.”

The horrific video that was released last week shows Combs throwing Ventura to the floor in a hotel before kicking her twice, dragging her down a hallway and throwing objects at her.
The trainwreck of an interview continued as Phillip asked Cam’ron about his thoughts on Diddy’s apology video, in which he did not apologize directly to Ventura because their NDA prevents him from publicly stating her name, TMZ previously reported.
“The apology ain’t for me, it’s for Cassie,” Cam’ron replied. “He ain’t do nothing for me. What I think about it don’t matter. You need to ask Cassie if she accepts the apology. I said what I said.”

The awkward interview eventually came to a standstill when the rapper took a shot of his sexual intimacy supplement, PinkHorsePower, before plugging the product by claiming he was going to get “some cheeks” after drinking it.
