Diddy Lawsuit: When Did Druski Blow Up? Comedian Denies 2018 Allegations

Druski has publicly denied allegations linking him to a sexual assault lawsuit involving Sean “P. Diddy” Combs’ infamous “Freak Off” parties. The lawsuit, filed by plaintiff Ashley Parham, includes claims that Druski participated in an alleged assault at a 2018 party hosted by the hip-hop mogul.

According to the 87-page court document, Parham alleges that Diddy instructed Druski to assault her.

The filing details shocking claims, including that Druski covered Parham in lubricant and jumped onto her body, treating it like a “slip and slide.”

The document further alleges that Druski continued the assault while Diddy recorded the incident, after which they and other men allegedly left to smoke marijuana and cigarettes.

Druski has since taken to social media to issue a strong denial.

“This allegation is a fabricated lie. I wasn’t a public figure in 2018. I was broke living with my mom without any connections to the entertainment industry at the time of this allegation, so the inclusion of my name is truly outlandish,” he stated.

He further expressed sympathy for real victims of abuse while maintaining his confidence that evidence will clear his name.

Despite Druski’s denial, Parham is seeking punitive damages, arguing that the defendants acted “willfully, wantonly, maliciously, and oppressively.”

The case has sparked widespread conversation, with many fans debating Druski’s involvement and the credibility of the allegations.

When Did Druski Blow Up

Druski, now a well-known entertainer, rose to fame through his comedy sketches and viral internet presence.

He is recognized for his hit YouTube series ‘Coulda Been Love’ and collaborations with celebrities like Kai Cenat and Kevin Hart.

Druski, whose real name is Drew Desbordes, began gaining significant attention and “blowing up” around 2019-2020, with his rise to mainstream prominence peaking in 2020.

This timeline is based on his journey from posting comedic skits on Instagram to becoming a recognizable figure in entertainment through viral content and high-profile collaborations.

On October 2, 2017, he started posting comedy skits on Instagram under the handle “druski2funny,” but his early efforts built a modest following rather than instant fame.

It wasn’t until 2019 that his skits featuring characters like frat bros and ruthless record label executives started gaining serious traction online, particularly as he honed his relatable, exaggerated humor.

His breakthrough moment came in 2020, amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic when people craved entertainment online. That year, he appeared in major music videos, including Lil Yachty’s “Oprah’s Bank Account” (March 9, 2020) and Drake’s “Laugh Now Cry Later” (August 13, 2020), which exposed him to massive audiences and cemented his status.

By 2021, Druski was opening for J. Cole and 21 Savage on The Off-Season Tour and hosting shows like Sneakin’ In With Druski with Adidas and Revolt, further solidifying his blow-up. So, while his journey started in 2017, Druski truly “blew up” between 2019 and 2020, with 2020 being the pivotal year.
