Amazon has pulled a memoir purported to have been written by ex-Sean “Diddy” Combs partner Kim Porter following complaints from her children that the book was fabricated.

The book, “Kim’s Lost Words: A Journey for Justice, From the Other Side,” was self-published by a producer named Todd Christopher Guzze under the pseudonym Jamal T. Millwood. He claims to have compiled it from a flash drive of documents and diary entries that told the story of Porter’s abusive relationship with Combs.

The $22 paperback took off and briefly became the top seller on Amazon last month after Combs’ September arrest on sex trafficking and racketeering charges and speculation by Porter’s ex-husband that she had been murdered.

Porter died suddenly from pneumonia in 2018 at age 47. She and Combs shared three children: Christian, 26, and twins Jessie and D’Lila Combs, 17. Combs also helped raise her son her son Quincy Brown, 33, whom she had with the producer Al B Sure.

The producer, whose real name is Albert Joseph Brown III, raised suspicions about the book’s origins last month following Combs’ arrest, going so far as to send the publisher a cease-and-desist letter.

Porter’s children followed suit, saying it was “simply untrue” she had written a book.

“Anyone claiming to have a manuscript is misrepresenting themselves,” they said in a statement. “Additionally, please understand that any so-called ‘friend’ speaking on behalf of our mom or her family is not a friend. Nor do they have her best interests at heart.”

Amazon confirmed it had stop selling the book on Tuesday.

“We were made aware of a dispute regarding this title and have notified the publisher,” an Amazon spokesperson said in a statement. “The book is not currently available for sale in our store.”

Atlanta rapper Rich Homie Quan died from an accidental drug overdose, medical examiner says

ATLANTA — Rapper Rich Homie Quan died from an accidental drug overdose, the medical examiner's office in Georgia confirmed.

The cause of death for the hip-hop performer, born Dequantes Devontay Lamar, was from a slew of drugs such as fentanyl, alprazolam, codeine and promethazine, a spokesperson for the Fulton County medical examiner's office said on Wednesday.

Quan showed no signs of trauma when his body was found. His brother told police that he thought Quan was asleep on the floor by the kitchen before he picked up the rapper and put him on the couch, saying it was “very unusual” to see food still in his mouth.

Later that morning, police were called by a woman who noticed that Quan’s body was cold and he was not breathing.

Quan, 33, who died at an Atlanta hospital on Sept. 5, was one of the biggest names in hip-hop in the mid-2010s. He gained mainstream fame through the rap singles “Flex (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh)” and “Type of Way,” which became such a success that several other rappers jumped on the remix, including Jeezy and Meek Mill.

Quan appeared on a YG track with Jeezy and released the London on da Track-produced song “Lifestyle” through his Rich Gang rap collective that included Young Thug and Birdman.

Quan followed up with “Flex (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh),” a song produced by DJ Spinz and Nitti Beatz. It became his highest charting solo single at No. 26 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. He was also featured on Lil Dicky’s viral “$ave Dat Money.”

In 2018, Quan debuted his first and only studio album “Rich as in Spirit,” which mostly went without any features — except for “Think About It,” a single with Rick Ross.
