Ma$e made an appearance on the latest episode of the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast, where the Harlem rap star was asked to go into detail about his long-running bad blood with his former compatriot Sean "Diddy" Combs. Diddy famously signed M-A-Dollar Sign-E to his Bad Boy Entertainment label in the 1990s and the two went on to tremendous commercial success together. There have been brief reunions over the years, but Ma$e has been firing shots at his former mentor consistently as of late.

When asked directly how he felt Diddy wronged him, Ma$e opened up about their history.

"Let me take my shades off for that,” Ma$e began. “Now, I can say this because it wasn’t something I didn’t say to him. Puff – how do I wanna say this – me and Puff was like, I felt like I did more than I got credit for, more than I got paid for."

He went on to say that he tries to be respectful when discussing this issue.

“Okay, let’s clear that up then ’cause I’m tryna be nice. I never got paid what I was worth and I never got the respect I was worth. So the disdain is like, ‘You’re tryna keep me here, nigga? I’m not here. All my peers is up here. All my peers are bosses.’"

He continued: “When it’s time, just like somebody raise somebody up, they did work with you, they go from your lawman to maybe A&R to something else – he just kept tryna keep me right here, like he didn’t want me to grow at anything.”

Ma$e indicated that he was never properly credited or compensated for his contributions to Diddy and Notorious B.I.G. projects.

“Puff would go out and party and I would be in the studio writing the records,” he said. “And then I’d just come back and say, he’ll say this is his part or this is that part, but I was the person creating it all. I mean, from the lyrical standpoint, whether somebody did the beats, and even ‘Mo Money Mo Problems’ – I came up with that. I came up with the beat, too. I said, ‘Stevie [J], we need to do this beat and do it like this.’ So just imagine all of these moments that are taken from you, the records, the beats, you ain’t getting the money, you ain’t getting the publishing, you ain’t getting the respect.”

“And I don’t think you’re like that to be pulling with you’re pulling," Ma$e continued. "You know what comes with doing that, but everybody is letting you get away with it. Everybody. So me quitting after one album, it didn’t take long for me to figure it out, like I’m not gon’ be here with this. I don’t care who’s here, ’cause you’re not paying me and you’re not respecting me.”

Ma$e has also been embroiled in a war of words with a former protege of his own, Fivio Foreign. During Foreign's recent interview with the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast, the Brooklyn drill rapper indicated he was in a bad deal with Ma$e's RichFish Records. As far as the ongoing back-and-forth with Fivio Foreign, Ma$e explained his side of their disagreement.

“At one time, I gave him $5,000, but I gave him $750,000,” he told Gillie. “Because I set him up to do a deal to where I can control the deal, make the deal what it should be because I knew if he had the leverage, he would go in there and sell both of us out.

“Then, when we went in the building, I took $800,000 and he took $700,000. The reason why it went down to $700,000 is because when I gave him $750,000 and I took $750,000, he owed me $50,000.”

Ma$e says that he came up with some of Fivio's bars and slang.

“I got to clear my name ‘cause I got other business out there and you threw a real reckless monkey wrench,” he said. “I still love him. Even when I wrote the ‘let’s go viral’ and this was in 2018. I just need y’all to see that. I want everybody to know I’ve been behind the scenes doing business.

“Like the whole ‘go viral.’ Just the lingo. The aye aye aye. I want to be clear. That’s my lingo. If you get famous off something a nigga gave you, you don’t disrespect me, and I’d do it again.”
