<p><strong>Diddy</strong> recently let the world know he&#8217;s back outside and clearing his name! In an interview with <em>The Breakfast Club</em>, released on Oct. 5, <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/four-times-diddy-wooed-yung-miami-from-a-gifted-maybach-to-a-lavish-vacation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mr. Combs addressed</a> rumors staining his musical legacy.</p>
<p>For years, people online have discussed the way Diddy allegedly conducts business. Artists who&#8217;ve previously worked with him have fueled these talks with narratives of the hip-hop mogul robbing them. And <strong>Ma$e</strong> is <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/mase-took-to-instagram-to-speak-on-black-men-joining-street-gangs/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">on the list</a> of accusers.</p>
<p>But, according to Diddy&#8217;s recent sit-down, the rapper<em> </em>owes him a bag instead of the other way around! And for anyone wondering, Diddy says he&#8217;s never stolen from anyone.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;If you think that I&#8217;m a scumbag that would ever steal anything, my name is Diddy Sean Combs. I never took nothing from nobody a day in my life. All I&#8217;ve ever given is opportunity and more money than a person was making,&#8221; he said. &#8220;So when I hear or see things and I&#8217;m like wow this vibe that they got on me like I&#8217;m Big Red or something. I opened up the doors.</p></blockquote>
<h5 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Diddy Says Thief Talks Happen When &#8220;Money Is Running Low&#8221; </strong></h5>
<p>After Diddy&#8217;s statement above, <strong>Charlamagne Tha God</strong> <a href="https://youtu.be/aZ82AvAa_tw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">asked him directly</a> about stealing from artists. The producer immediately claimed he&#8217;s <em>never </em>done so. Charlamagne then asked Diddy where does he think the thief narrative came from.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;People have this thing called the tap-out button. When you get to a certain point and the money is running low, you gotta run this hustle to try to find somebody to blame,&#8221; Diddy said. &#8220;I have all my receipts. We are going to do a special, a retrospective, with all the artists and we’re going to get this narrative clear.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>It&#8217;s unclear when that special sit-down will go down, but he also spoke about his relationship with one of his accusers, Ma$e. You&#8217;ll recall the rapper took to Instagram to <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/mase-calls-out-diddy-for-allegedly-not-paying-him-and-other-artists-what-theyre-owed-no-more-hiding-behind-love/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">call Brother Love out</a> in 2020 over his publishing and coins.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;&#8230;.if u want to see change you can make change today by starting with yourself,&#8221; Ma$e wrote. &#8220;U still got my publishing from 24 years ago in which u gave me $20K. Which makes me never want to work w/ u as any artist wouldn’t after u know someone is robbing you &; tarnishing your name when u don’t want to comply w/ his horrendous business model.&#8221; He added, &#8220;No more hiding behind &#8216;love.&#8217; U CHANGED? GIVE THE ARTIST BACK THEIR $$$. So they can take care of their families.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h5 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Diddy Says Ma$e Owes Him $3 Million, But Claims He Doesn&#8217;t Want Any Beef</strong></h5>
<p>Diddy didn&#8217;t mince his words when speaking on Ma$e on <em>The Breakfast Club. </em>He got right to the rapper&#8217;s claims&#8211;even addressing his stint as a pastor.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I did one album with Ma$e. One album. How much money do you think I owe this guy,&#8221; Diddy said. &#8220;One album and then he became a fake pastor and went and conned people and then y&#8217;all gon let him throw dirt on the God&#8217;s name.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>The <em>Bad Boy Records </em>owner also challenged anyone launching accusations against him to show their receipts.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Anybody can come and step up, bring your receipts, but I&#8217;m not playing,&#8221; Diddy said. &#8220;I&#8217;m back outside and I&#8217;m fighting back for us and I&#8217;m also doing a little fight back for me.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Charlamagne followed up Diddy&#8217;s statement with the question, <strong><em>&#8220;how much money does somebody like a Ma$e owe you?&#8221; </em></strong></p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Ma$e owes me $3 million dollars. That&#8217;s facts, I got the receipt,&#8221; Diddy said.</p></blockquote>
<p>With prompting from <strong>DJ Envy</strong>, Diddy confirmed that he gave Ma$e coins for a second album, but the rapper never delivered. Despite that, Diddy says he won&#8217;t be going back and forth with anybody, including Ma$e.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;If I&#8217;m here I&#8217;m going to speak up for myself now,&#8221; he said. Diddy later added, &#8220;the truth gon be the truth but we gon&#8217; get to the truth, as long as I&#8217;m outside. I&#8217;m not trying to start nothing with nobody. Ma$e, I love Ma$e. And I will tell anybody, anybody thinks I owe them something show me the receipt, you get paid in 24 hours.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>In July, Ma$e was accused of repeating Diddy&#8217;s alleged business moves with another artist. At the time, Fivio Foreign said he had previously <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/fivio-foreign-shares-that-he-once-signed-a-deal-with-mase-received-a-5000-advance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">signed a deal with Ma$e</a> and only got a $5,000 advance.</p>
<blockquote><p>“No, I gave him $750,000,” <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/mase-calls-fivio-foreigns-5k-deal-comments-reckless-says-the-rapper-signed-for-750000/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mase said</a> during a <em>Million Dollaz Worth of Game </em>interview in August. Host Wallo interrupted, asking, “You never gave him $5,000?” Mase responded, “At one time I gave him $5,000, but I gave him $750,000.”</p></blockquote>
