Back then, P. Diddy’s presence at Cassie Ventura’s official mixtape release party, “RockAByeBaby,” held at SL Lounge in New York City, showcased his strong admiration for her musical talent.

The model and singer appeared radiant and relaxed in a Gucci t-shirt, black fitted pants, and a blue leather jacket, completing her look with stylish shoes. With photographers granted access inside the NYC venue, Sean “Diddy” Combs stayed by Cassie’s side throughout the event, even dancing on top of a sofa to the hip-hop beats from “RockAByeBaby.” The mixtape’s first track, “Paradise,” featuring Wiz Khalifa, was released online before the mixtape became available for free download.
