As Sean “Diddy” Combs’ ongoing criminal trial is nearing a close, his son Christian “King” Combs released Never Stop on Friday, a new EP with Kanye West that includes a song called “Diddy Free.”
“Diddy Free” opens with the line, “n***as ain’t going to sleep till we see Diddy free.”
“When shit gets sus, they try to play the victim,” King Combs rapped on the track, later rapping, “fuck the world, critics and the witness. Face clean, they tryna dirt the image.”
West’s daughter, North West, is also listed as a featured artist on the EP’s opening track, “Lonely Roads.” Never Stop dropped just before Combs’ legal team gave closing arguments Friday morning, where lead attorney Marc Agnifilo blasted the proceedings as a “fake trial.”
West, who’s spent much of 2025 courting controversy with hateful comments on social media, has prominently voiced his support for Diddy in the past, and he briefly showed up to the trial in New York earlier this month.
Combs faces allegations of sex trafficking and racketeering and could face life in prison if convicted. He has pleaded not guilty on all charges. After over a month of testimony and evidence, Combs elected not to testify in the trial earlier this week. Federal prosecutors gave their four-and-a-half-hour closing arguments on Thursday, imploring the jury to convict Combs and calling him “the leader of a criminal enterprise.”
“All of this evidence paints a clear picture of how the defendant committed crimes,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik said Thursday. Up until today, he was able to get away with it because of his money, his power (and) his influence. That stops now. It’s time for justice. It’s time to find the defendant guilty.”
