After releasing “Oracle 2: The Liberation of Mason Betha” on March 15, Ma$e finally explained the reason for his lyrical jabs against Diddy.
In the song, Ma$e says “Yeah, I’m just a Harlem n—- repping down a Vegas strip with my own Suge. You from Mt. Vernon, n—-, go and rep your own hood, I’m not hating on your billi worth. Right now, I’m only saying what you really work. You ain’t no architect, you just a n—- who know how to market death.”
Many believe those lines were aimed at Diddy, who Ma$e is accusing of exploiting Biggie’s death to his benefit.
On March 17, Ma$e went on Instagram Live to explain the diss aimed at Diddy.
“When I see the hurt and the pains of other people on Bad Boy 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,” Ma$e said.
“I’m not going be like the rest of the people around Puff that don’t tell him he’s wrong. I’m not going to be like the yes-men around him that see him ruining people’s lives and never tell him he’s wrong,” he said.
Ma$e continued and ultimately said that he’s done with the games that Diddy is playing.
“More people on here would tell me I’m wrong but won’t say anything to him,” Ma$e said. “They’ll judge my beliefs. They’ll judge my Christianity and they’ll say nothing to Puff. They’ll say nothing about ‘[it’s] 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. We’re done with your games.”
