Ma$e Wants To Visit Diddy In Jail: “Perfect Time” To Have Conversation With Mogul
Ma$e is opening up about his strained relationship with Sean “Diddy” Combs, signaling a willingness to reconnect with the imprisoned mogul.
He put recent speculation to rest on his “It Is What It Is” podcast Monday (March 17).
During the episode, co-host Cam’ron mentioned whispers of alleged friction between Ma$e and one of Diddy’s sons at Voletta Wallace’s funeral last week.
Although Cam’ron refrained from specifying which son, Christian Combs attended the service. Cam mentioned he’d heard the two were meant to sit next to each other but deliberately chose not to, hinting at underlying tension.
However, Ma$e laughed off the speculation, dismissing any notion of hostility.
“We looked at each other, but I don’t think he saw me,” Ma$e clarified. “I would have said what’s up.”
Turning the conversation toward Diddy, Ma$e expressed openness to visiting the former Bad Boy Records CEO, who currently awaits trial at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center without bail.
“If my name was on the list, I’d go visit Puff,” Ma$e stated. “I would visit him, make sure he was good.”
Nonetheless, Ma$e was careful to clarify his stance, explicitly stating he wasn’t blindly taking Diddy’s side amid serious allegations but instead emphasizing loyalty and gratitude toward someone who had supported him professionally.
“Not that I condone anything that they’re alleging them to have done,” Ma$e stressed. Acknowledging their rocky past, he further remarked, “He didn’t do all bad. He did some good.”

Ma$e Dropping Comeback Album On Day One Of Diddy’s Trial
Interestingly, Ma$e recently revealed he intends to drop his comeback album strategically timed with the start date of Diddy’s trial, scheduled for May 5, 2025.
“Now we even,” Ma$e humorously stated last week, referencing the timing of his release announcement.
The complicated relationship between Ma$e and Diddy dates back to their Bad Boy Records days, marred by financial disputes and publishing rights disagreements. In 2020, Ma$e publicly accused Diddy of denying him the chance to buy back his publishing, even after offering over $2 million. Yet, some reconciliation occurred in September 2023 when Diddy returned publishing rights to Ma$e and other former Bad Boy artists, describing their relationship later as brothers who fight but ultimately love each other.
With Diddy’s trial looming, Ma$e remains open to reconnecting face-to-face, suggesting, “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.”
