Mase expounds upon why he released a diss track aimed at Diddy.

The Harlem Rapper Drops Diss Record Against His Former Boss

On Tuesday, Mar. 15, Mase released a song titled “Oracle 2: The Liberation Of Mason Betha.” It is directed at his former manager. It appeared out of nowhere, as the former Bad Boy artist has not been in the spotlight since he returned from his stint as a pastor in 2004.

However, he took to Instagram live on Thursday, Mar. 27, to explain the diss track and why he came for Diddy’s head-top.

“When I see the hurt and the pains of other people on Bad Boy [Records], that motivates me to say something so I don’t be deemed as a person who just made a bunch of money and turned a blind eye. I’m not gonna be like the rest of the people around Puff that don’t tell him he’s wrong,” he said about the music executive. “I’m not gonna be like the yes men around him that seem him ruining people’s lives and never tell him he’s wrong.”

Mase continued speaking his peace, saying people would judge him for his sentiments.

“More people on here would tell me I’m wrong but won’t say anything to him. They’ll judge my beliefs…my Christianity, and…say nothing to Puff…[not even] about ‘a concert for Biggie and Biggie own daughter couldn’t get in.’ They’ll say nothing about that, but all of his friends got 50 and 60 tickets.”

He concluded his thoughts by warning Diddy, “We’re done with your games.”

The 46-year-old ’90s hitmaker has been quiet for some time. However, Mase was still very vocal about his grievances over the years when he did pop up. This recent social media rant was no exception.

Mase Is Vocal About His Beef With Diddy

In 2020, Mase claimed that he requested his publishing rights from Diddy in a $2 million via a plea, but the hip-hop powerhouse rejected it. After accepting his Icon Award at Pre-Grammy Gala that year, the “Victory” rapper went on social media to blast him. During his speech, he touched on the importance of diversity, but Mase wasn’t having it.

“I heard your #Grammy speech about how [you] are now for the artist and how the artist must take back control. So I will be the first to take that initiative. Also, before we ask other ethnicities to do us right, we should do us as black people better. Especially the creators,” Mase wrote in a now-deleted post.

The ’90s Rap Legend Says He Offered Money

“So I offered u 2m in cash just a few days ago to sell me back my publishing–as his biggest artist alive–that always show [you] respect for [you] giving me an opportunity at 19 yrs old. Your response was if I can match what the EUROPEAN GUY OFFER him that would be the only way I can get it back. Or else I can wait until I’m 50 years old, and it will revert back to me from when I was 19 years old. You bought it for about 20k & I offered you 2m in cash. This is not black excellence at all.”

Whether or not the allegations are true, Mase meant business. Maybe he’s even coming to get what is allegedly his back in blood.
