Mase is back, and he’s making a statement.
After years away from the mic, the Harlem legend announced on the March 7 episode of his sports talk show It Is What It Is that he will be releasing his first album in two decades—and it’s no coincidence that the release date aligns with the first day of Diddy’s trial.
Mase Confirms Album Release, Co-Signed by Cam’ron
During the show, Mase teased the project while speaking with co-hosts Treasure “Stat Baby” Wilson and former football player Maurice Clarett.
“Mo, what’s good? Can y’all hear the music? I’m listening to the songs that Killa picked out of the stuff I made.”
Mase made it clear that Cam’ron played a role in curating the tracklist, ensuring that the project is stacked with the right records.
When asked if this meant he was actually dropping an album, Mase confirmed the long-awaited return, saying:
“No, no, no. These are the songs he picked, so I’m listening to his lineup. It’s gonna be crazy. We had to pick the right records.”
May 25… Or May 5? Mase’s Album and Diddy’s Trial Collide
When Clarett pressed him on a release date, Mase made a bombshell revelation:
“May 25. The first day of the Diddy trial. We’re dropping. You like that? You made me put it out there. I wasn’t going to put that out there, but Mo, you made me.”
Mase didn’t stop there—he declared it a “triple CD” and ended with a pointed statement:
“Now we even.”
This comes amid his long-standing issues with Diddy, with Mase repeatedly calling out his former Bad Boy Records boss over financial disputes and claiming that he was never paid fairly for his work.
However, there’s one small issue—Diddy’s racketeering and sex trafficking trial is set to begin on May 5, not May 25. That means Mase might need to move up his release date to match the moment.
The Bigger Picture
Mase’s return is more than just music—it’s a statement. The timing, the album title, and the triple-disc approach all point to one thing: he’s got something to say, and he’s ready to say it on his own terms.
Will Mase’s Comeback Reshape the Narrative?
While Diddy maintains his innocence and has pleaded not guilty to all charges, Mase’s album drop ensures that his name will be tied to the moment. Whether this is a personal closure, a career reset, or a long-overdue musical redemption, all eyes will be on him come May.
