An additional 120 people have come forward with sexual misconduct allegations against rap mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs.
Houston attorney Tony Buzbee said he expected civil lawsuits to be filed within the next month.
Buzbee described the alleged victims as 60 males and 60 females. Twenty-five were minors at the time of the alleged crimes, with the youngest alleged victim a nine-year-old boy who claims he was sexually abused during an audition at Bad Boy Records.
In several cases, victims will allege that they were drugged with horse tranquilliser, and that many of the incidents occurred at Mr Combs' infamous parties.
"I expect in this process many powerful people will be exposed," Buzbee said, noting other individuals would be named as defendants when the lawsuits were filed. "You can't hide skeletons in the closet forever."
Following the announcement, an attorney for Combs, who is in jail awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, said the performer could not address "every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus".
"That said, Mr Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors."
Combs has already pleaded not guilty to racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.
