Notorious B.I.G.’s mother, Voletta Wallace, wants to “slap the daylights out of” Sean “Diddy” Combs in light of video footage released this month of the music mogul assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie in 2016.

Wallace made the remarks in an interview published in [_Rolling Stone_](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/notorious-big-biggie-smalls-sean-diddy-combs-mom-1235029826/)on Thursday, also calling for Combs to apologize to Cassie for the assault. The interview comes days after the magazine published a [six-month-long investigation](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/diddy-friends-bad-boy-artists-abuse-violence-1235028178/) into alleged violent abuse by Combs.

“I’m sick to my stomach,” Wallace said about the allegations against Combs. “I’m praying for Cassie. I’m praying for his mother. I don’t want to believe the things that I’ve heard, but I’ve seen \[the video\]. I pray that he apologizes to her.”

“I hope that I see Sean one day and the only thing I want to do is slap the daylights out of him. And you can quote me on that,” she continued. “Because I liked him. I didn’t want to believe all the awful things, but I’m so ashamed and embarrassed.”

Wallace added that Combs “needs to apologize to his mother” for his behavior.

On May 17, [CNN aired security footage](https://time.com/6979565/video-2016-diddy-cassie-hotel/) that showed Combs, wearing only a white towel, assaulting the R&B singer in a Los Angeles hotel hallway in 2016\. Two days after the video aired, [Combs admitted to assaulting Cassie](https://time.com/6979840/diddy-sean-combs-admits-assaulting-cassie-video-apology/), born Casandra Ventura.

“It’s so difficult to reflect on the darkest times in your life, but sometimes you gotta do that. I was f-cked up. I hit rock bottom, but I make no excuses,” Combs said in a video shared via his Instagram account. “My behavior on that video is inexcusable. I take full responsibility for my actions in that video. I’m disgusted. I was disgusted then when I did it, and I’m disgusted now.”

Ventura filed a lawsuit against Combs in November 2023, alleging that the music mogul had physically and sexually abused her during their relationship. The two parties [reached a settlement](https://time.com/6336583/sean-combs-cassie-rape-abuse-lawsuit/). But since Ventura’s allegations, five more women and one man have accused Combs of sexual assault in their own lawsuits, according to [_Rolling Stone_](https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/sean-diddy-combs-controversies-timeline-1234889043/)_._ Combs has denied the allegations.

Homeland Security [raided](https://www.nytimes.com/article/diddy-sean-combs-lawsuit-allegations.html) Combs’ Los Angeles and Miami homes on March 25, though little information was released about the case. [CNN](https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/29/entertainment/sean-diddy-combs-federal-investigation/index.html) has since reported that federal investigators are preparing to bring people who have accused the music mogul before a federal grand jury, indicating that the U.S. Justice Department may seek an indictment of Combs.
