Ma$e has made a surprising revelation about his former label boss, Sean “Diddy” Combs, despite their well-documented history of disputes. The rapper-turned-pastor, who was once a key artist on Bad Boy Records, recently shared that he would have no problem visiting Diddy behind bars if given the opportunity.
Ma$e Opens Up About Attending Voletta Wallace’s Funeral
During a recent episode of his It Is What It Is podcast, Ma$e and his co-host Cam’ron discussed his attendance at the funeral of Voletta Wallace, the mother of the late rap icon, The Notorious B.I.G. Ma$e described the ceremony as an emotional event that felt like “the end of an era.”
The rapper revealed that he was so overwhelmed by emotions that he found it difficult to speak with some of the attendees. Cam’ron then jokingly asked if Ma$e had felt uncomfortable sitting next to Diddy’s son, referencing their complicated history.
“I wasn’t there. I was just wondering,” Cam quipped. “I heard they put y’all by each other and the vibe wasn’t right.”
Ma$e Says He Would Visit Diddy in Jail
While Ma$e did not confirm his seating arrangement at the funeral, he made it clear that he harbors no ill will towards Diddy, even expressing that he would visit the embattled music mogul if given the chance.
“I mean, if my name was on the list, I’d go visit Puff, you know?” Ma$e said. “I would visit him, make sure that he’s good.”
Cam’ron Challenges Ma$e’s Perspective
Cam’ron, known for his blunt takes, quickly challenged Ma$e’s stance, asking why he didn’t check in on Diddy when he was still free.
“These are the times you need people to check up and make sure you good,” Ma$e explained. “And not that I condone anything that they’re alleged to have done, just until they prove it, you kind of want to make sure that you don’t be like one of those people that, somebody did good for you… he didn’t do all bad, he did some good.”
Clarifying further, Ma$e emphasized that his perspective was purely based on their professional history in the music industry and not on the recent allegations surrounding Diddy.
“I’m not talking about the tape stuff and all that,” Ma$e added. “I’m talking about just the musical side, giving me an opportunity. I think, as a person of class, you definitely got to show up and sit somewhere in the court, if they let you.”
