Rapper Kid Cudi could be called to the witness stand as early as Thursday morning to testify against Sean "Diddy" Combs.

Kid Cudi -- whose real name is Scott Mescudi -- is expected to begin after ex- Combs employee George Kaplan finishes in the morning. Kaplan is only slated to be questioned for roughly another 30 minutes to an hour by prosecutors.

Mescudi's name has come up many times at trial since he dated Combs' longterm on-and-off again girlfriend Cassie Ventura.

Ventura, and her mother Regina Ventura, both testified about how the Bad Boy Records founder became incensed when he learned Cassie Ventura was dating Mescudi.

The "I'll Be Missing You" rapper allegedly threatened to hurt Mescudi and Ventura over their fling.

Trial wrapped up for the day after about 20 minutes of testimony from Sean "Diddy" Combs' former employee George Kaplan.

He's due to continue testifying Thursday morning as he continues answering questions on direct examination.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' former employee George Kaplan is telling jurors about how he set up hotel rooms for his music mogul boss in Los Angeles, Miami and New York.

Kaplan said he booked rooms for the Bad Boy Records founder at hotels including The Bel-Air Hotel, Trump International, Mr. C Hotel and the InterContinental Hotel where Combs infamously was caught on tape beating up his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura.

Kaplan booked the rooms under the name Frank Black, which he said was a reference to the Biggie Smalls -- since the famous rapper also went by the nickname Frank White, after a character in the movie the "King of New York."

Kaplan said he packed Combs' bag for the hotel stays, which he made sure contained clothing, a speaker, candles, liquor, baby oil and Astroglide personal lubricant.

After the hotel visits, Kaplan he collected Combs' belongings and made sure the rooms were "somewhat" put back in acceptable shape.

He said the rooms had garbage including "lots of empty bottles" of Gatorade, liquor, and baby oil. And Kaplan once saw "some brown crystalized powder left behind in the room."

"I didn't know what it was and I got rid of it," he told the jury.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' former employee George Kaplan has been answering questions very directly and openly as he laid out long work hours and "monthly threats" that the music mogul would fire him.

Kaplan said he worked under Kristina Khorram and primarily worked out of Combs' Los Angeles residence working 80 to 100 hours per week.

He recalled one time when Combs became "angry" with him because he bought two half gallons of water instead of the gallon that Combs had asked him for.

"He threatened my job on Occassion ... monthly threats," Kaplan said.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' former employee George Kaplan has just begun testifying against his former boss after prosecutors granted him immunity.

Earlier during brief questioning outside of the jury's presence Kaplan said he'd agree to testify since prosecutors offered him immunity. He was previously planning to plead the 5th to protect himself from self-incrimination.

He just testified that he was an executive assistant at Combs Enterprises from December 2013 through December 2015.

Trial has been ending around 3 p.m. each day this week so he likely won't testify for much longer than 15 minutes before returning Thursday morning to continue.

Judge Arun Subramanian joked with jurors about playing Muzak -- or elevator music -- during sidebars after a series of long, private discussions he's had with prosecutors and Sean "Diddy" Combs' lawyers today.

"We're going to get some Muzak put in for some white noise next time" Subramanian said.

When the lawyers convene at sidebar, white noise is loudly played over speakers so jurors and others in the courtroom can't hear the conversations.

The private arguments have been longer than normal during the testimony of forensic psychologist Dawn Hughes and are centered on what she should be allowed to testify about in front of jurors.

Here's a look at evidence photos revealed during the trial, including a treasure trove of pics from federal agents' raid on his Miami mansion in March 2024:

She is being questioned by Sean "Diddy" Combs' defense attorney Jonathan Bach.

Sean "Diddy" Combs' two sons — Justin, 31, and Christian aka "King," 27 — are at the trial supporting their father today.

They've regularly been showing up to court since the trial began last Monday, along with their stepbrother Quincy and sisters Chance, D'Lila and Jessie, and Diddy's 87-year-old mother, Janice, some days.

Diddy's publicist Holly Baird also turned up for the trial today.

The testimony of forensic psychologist Dawn Hughes will wrap up after the lunch break at 12:45 p.m.

Diddy's bathroom mirror was scrawled with handwritten messages hyping up the once-beloved hip-hop star, a photo from the federal raid on his Miami Beach mansion shows.

"You a legend," "You're an icon Puff Daddy" and "Upward Motion" could be seen written on the mirror in a photo from the March 25, 2024, raid.

Whether Sean "Diddy" Combs wrote the inspirational messages — which included "What Do You WANT?" — was unclear.

Forensic psychologist Dawn Hughes is testifying as a "blind witness," meaning she hasn't interviewed Sean "Diddy" Combs, any witnesses at his trial or any of his alleged victims including ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura.

Hughes has been called by prosecutors to speak about why people stay in abusive relationships.

She said the main reasons people stay in abusive relationships is that the abuse makes them feel trapped, because there is often love involved and because the cycle of abuse makes planning a way out hard.
