The song appears to begin with a recording of a phone conversation between disgraced rapper Diddy and West. 'I wanna just thank you so much for just taking care of my kids, man,' a voice believed to be Diddy can be heard saying. 'Ain't nobody reach out to them, ain't nobody call them.'
West responds, 'Absolutely, I love you so much, man. You raised me. Even when I ain't know you, know what I'm saying?'
Elsewhere in the song, North appears to rap, 'Doing everything I wanted, that's the key to life / When you see me shining, then you see the light.'
TMZ also reported that West shared screenshots of a text conversation between himself and North's mother Kim Kardashian, which have since been deleted from the rapper's X account. In the text exchange, Kardashian allegedly told West that she trademarked their 11-year-old daughter's name in an attempt to stop 'Lonely Roads Still Go to Sunshine' from being released to the public.
'I asked you at the time if I can trademark her name. You said yes. When she's 18, it goes to her. So stop,' Kardashian wrote, according to TMZ. 'I sent paperwork over so she wouldn't be in the Diddy song to protect her. One person has to trademark!'
She added, 'We agreed when they were both i would get all of our kids names and trademarks So no one else would take them.'
West responded, 'Amend it or I'm going to war And neither of us will recover from the public fallout You're going to have to kill me.'
The Hollywood Reporter has reached out to Kardashian's rep for comment.
Combs was indicted in September last year on charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution. He pleaded not guilty to the charges and is currently in jail awaiting trial, which is set to begin in May.
West, who has been criticized recently for his hate-filled rants on social media and for selling a T-shirt with a Nazi swastika on the front, has previously defended Combs, stating that the rapper should be freed from prison. The pair collaborated on music earlier in their careers.

Suge Knight Addresses Diddy's Sex Trafficking Trial: 'Tell The Real Truth, And Bring Everybody Accountable'
Source: Kevork Djansezian / Getty As we enter the fourth week of Diddy's sex trafficking and racketeering case, many of Diddy's former acquaintances have been put on the stand, and now one of his biggest enemies is speaking out. Suge Knight spoke to ABC News, and despite the two being on opposite sides and catalysts behind the decades-old East Coast-West Coast beef, he's not putting all the blame on Diddy for his sexual behaviors, claiming others were involved but falling short of naming anyone. 'If you're going to make Puffy answer, make everyone answer,' Knight began. 'Change the theme of the culture of the problems in Hip-Hop. I think it'd be a great thing to let Puffy tell his truth. Tell the real truth, and bring everybody accountable.' Knight adds that Diddy's freak offs may have become public knowledge in 2023 due to Cassie's lawsuit, but they had been happening long before and were an open secret in the Hip-Hop world. 'Everybody knew that,' Knight said. 'Puffy didn't just pop in the industry and say, 'hey, I want to have sex with everybody.' I mean, we don't have enough time to name all the names.' Suge Knight speaks out about Sean 'Diddy' Combs sex trafficking case. — ABC News (@ABC) June 2, 2025 Knight, who's currently serving a 28-year sentence for a fatal hit and run in 2015, has been mentioned 50 times in Diddy's trial. Most recently, he was a topic of discussion when Diddy's former assistant Capricorn Clark took the stand. She revealed that once Diddy found out that she used to work for Knight, her new boss told her he'd kill her if anything sketchy happened. Diddy's lawyer Marc Agnifilo pressed Clark on why she'd continue to work for someone who was allegedly so dangerous, but Knight points out that it's because of how much power Diddy had. Knight said he felt bad for Clark and applauded her for her ambition and desire to succeed in the entertainment industry. 'A lot of people might say, well, Capricorn could have did anything else she wanted to do. She did try,' Knight said. 'If you go get a job at Universal and Puffy makes a phone call, you're not getting that job. If you go get a job at a counter agency or in the movie business and Puff make that call, your career is over.' Even with their long-standing beef, Knight doesn't think prosecutors should take 'Puffy and lock him up and throw away the key,' because he thinks he can 'do so much good right now.' Knight advises that he take the stand to tell the truth and take a plea deal, which he already turned down ahead of the trial. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Akademiks TV (@djakademikstv) Knight also turned heads recently during another phone interview with Piers Morgan, where he claimed Diddy and Ray J were romantically involved. 'Ray J and Puffy was definitely lovers,' Knight claimed. 'Puffy allegedly gave him $10 million dollars to put out an album about the two brothers loving each other.'

50 Cent Claims He Will Talk To Donald Trump About Potentially Pardoning Diddy, X Applauds His Commitment To Being A Hater
Source: Getty Images / Bernard Smalls / 50 Cent / Diddy Allegedly, Diddy is out here trying to get a pardon from Donald Trump while he continues to them hand out like Halloween candy, but 50 Cent wants to make sure that his long-time rival rots in a prison cell. Using his favorite soapbox, Instagram, in a series of now-deleted posts, 50 Cent is letting his followers know that he's not playing regarding his hate for Diddy and that he will do whatever it takes to keep Diddy from securing a pardon from Felon 47. 'He said some really bad things about Trump, it's not ok. Im gonna reach out so he knows how I feel about this guy,' the G-Unit general said in one Instagram post. In another, he added, 'Donald doesn't take well to disrespect, and doesn't forget who chooses to go against him. while working tirelessly to make America great again there is no room for distraction. He would consider pardoning anyone who was being mistreated not Puffy Daddy.' Is Trump Seriously Considering Pardoning Diddy? Now, it's unlikely that Trump will grant the disgraced rapper/mogul a pardon, but he was asked about it during a Friday press conference, telling reporters, 'People have been very close to asking' regarding a pardon for Diddy. However, he claims that no one has reached out to him yet. 'I would certainly look at the facts. If I think somebody is mistreated, whether they like me or don't like me, it wouldn't have any impact on me.' 🔥🚨BREAKING: Trump just floated the idea of pardoning Diddy. Not because of the evidence. Not because of the facts. But because, and I quote, 'He used to really like me a lot.' — Brian Allen (@allenanalysis) May 30, 2025 50 Cent Claims He Wants To Make Trump 'Aware' of Diddy In a hilarious twist, 50 Cent tried to clarify his comments after The Daily Beast reported on him trying to 'nuke' Diddy's chances for a pardon. In another IG post, sharing a screenshot of the article, 50 Cent wrote, 'I didn't say I would Nuke anything, I simply said I will make sure Trump is aware.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by 50 Cent (@50cent) Welp. Users on X, formerly Twitter, have been reacting to this latest development in the ongoing saga between 50 Cent and Puff with many applauding his commitment to making Diddy's life a living hell.

Chris Pratt Pays Tribute to Late Co-star Jonathan Joss
Jonathan Joss' recent demise has shocked the entire world. Following Joss' death, several of his former colleagues and castmates paid tribute to him via statements and also revealed their reactions to his death. Now, Chris Pratt, who worked with Joss on Parks and Rec, has paid tribute to the latter via social media. Here's how Chris Pratt paid tribute to Jonathan Joss. The Guardians of the Galaxy actor took to his Instagram Stories to address Jonathan Joss' death. He shared a screenshot of an article reporting on Joss' demise and wrote underneath it, 'Damn. RIP Jonathan. Always such a kind dude. He played Ken Hotate in Parks and was also in Mag 7. Sad to see. Prayers up. Hug your loved ones.' Check out Pratt's Instagram Story below: Pratt was not the only Parks and Rec star to address Joss' demise. The late actor's other co-star from the sitcom, Nick Offerman, shared in a statement to PEOPLE how he and the other actors had been processing the actor's demise. 'The cast has been texting together about it all day and we're just heartbroken,' Offerman said. He then called Joss 'a sweet guy' and shared how he and the other Parks and Rec actors 'loved having him as' their 'Chief Ken Hotate.' The Last of Us actor noted that what happened to Joss was 'a terrible tragedy.' Joss died after being shot by his neighbour, Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja, in Texas. Eyewitnesses and the San Antonio Police Department revealed that the actor got into a heated argument with Ceja at a house on Sunday night on the city's south side. Their argument turned into a bloody confrontation that saw Ceja take out a weapon, pump several bullets into the actor, and flee in a vehicle afterward. Ceja was eventually arrested and booked for murder, with the bond being set at $200,000 (via TMZ). Joss' husband, Tristan Kern de Gonzales, posted a statement on Facebook. He revealed that homophobic individuals had targeted them and openly expressed their hatred for their relationship before Joss' death. Gonzales then shared that the man who killed Joss hurled violent homophobic slurs towards them. Originally reported by Abdul Azim Naushad on ComingSoon.
