In a surprising turn of events, Ma$e has opened up about his complicated relationship with Sean “Diddy” Combs, signaling a desire to reconnect with the imprisoned music mogul. During a recent episode of his “It Is What It Is” podcast, which aired on March 17, 2025, Ma$e addressed speculation regarding tensions with Diddy’s son and expressed his openness to visit the former Bad Boy Records CEO, who is currently awaiting trial at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center.
The conversation took an interesting turn when co-host Cam’ron mentioned rumors of friction between Ma$e and one of Diddy’s sons at a recent funeral. Although Cam’ron did not specify which son was involved, Christian Combs was present at the service. Ma$e dismissed the notion of any hostility, explaining that while they may have looked at each other, there was no animosity between them.
Turning his focus to Diddy, Ma$e stated, “If my name was on the list, I’d go visit Puff. I would visit him, make sure he was good.” However, he was quick to clarify that his willingness to visit does not equate to blind support for Diddy amid serious allegations. “Not that I condone anything that they’re alleging them to have done,” he emphasized, while acknowledging the positive aspects of their history together. “He didn’t do all bad. He did some good.”
In an interesting twist, Ma$e revealed plans to release his comeback album on May 5, 2025, the same day Diddy’s trial is set to begin. “Now we even,” he joked, referencing the strategic timing of his album drop alongside Diddy’s legal battles.
The relationship between Ma$e and Diddy has always been fraught with tension, stemming from their days at Bad Boy Records, marked by financial disputes and issues over publishing rights. In a notable turn of events, Diddy returned Ma$e’s publishing rights in September 2023, leading to a more amicable relationship, with Ma$e describing their bond as one of brotherly love despite their conflicts.
With Diddy’s trial on the horizon, Ma$e’s openness to reconnecting suggests a potential path to reconciliation. “If they throw my name on the list, I think right now will be a perfect time for me and him to have a conversation,” he said, leaving fans eager to see how this dynamic unfolds.
