In a third suit, Liza Gardner says that in 1990, Mr. Combs coerced her into sex and then, a couple of days later, choked her so hard she passed out. In a statement, Jonathan D. Davis, a lawyer for Mr. Combs, said: “The new claims against Mr. Combs for alleged misconduct from many years ago, which were filed at the last minute, are all denied and rejected by him. Because of Mr. Combs’s fame and success, he is an easy target for accusers who attempt to smear him. As news of those suits ricocheted through social media, accusations from Mr. Combs’s past were resurfaced and dissected. In a 2004 interview, Kimora Lee Simmons, the model and TV personality, said that Mr. Combs had threatened her while she was pregnant.

☆ Hip-Hop Was Made by Vinyl Librarians - The New York Times

Of all the clichés about hip-hop we’ve endured over 50 years, the idea that hip-hop is the product of “the streets”— with all the attendant implications about what and who is and isn’t authentic — remains the most tiresome. In reality, hip-hop is largely the product of kids who stayed inside. composed in real time — annotating, cross-referencing, and building on a living library of specific beats and sounds that would become the foundation of hip-hop. The records preserve the ethos of the world of the first hip-hop generation. They grew up in 1970s and ’80s New York, largely within African American families or those from the Caribbean.

☆ Was Hip-Hop Really Invented 50 Years Ago?

The music world has been gearing up for Aug. 11, which will be widely celebrated as the 50th anniversary of the birth of hip-hop. The story goes like this: On that date in 1973, in the rec room of an apartment building on Sedgwick Avenue in the Bronx, a teenager named Cindy Campbell threw a party, charging admission to raise money so that she could buy clothes for the coming school year. This gathering, one of many that her brother Clive would DJ as “Kool Herc,” is counted by many as the birth of the yet-nameless genre, in part because Herc is said to have honed its foundational musical impulse there.
