Ye and King Combs Release Never Stop EP Amid Diddy Trial Closing

Ye has teased his upcoming album DONDA 3, releasing a snippet featuring Ty Dolla $ign and the single "ALIVE" with YoungBoy Never Broke Again, though the project's release date remains unknown. Concurrently, Ye collaborated closely with King Combs, releasing a surprise seven-track EP titled NEVER STOP, where Ye served as executive producer and his daughter North West was featured, notably on the track "Lonely Roads." This EP aligns with Ye's public support for Diddy during his federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial, with the song "Diddy Free" underscoring this backing. The EP has drawn mixed reactions, with some fans finding the project distasteful given Ye's ongoing controversies, while others appreciate the emotional depth, especially King Combs' tribute to his late mother on the track "KIM." The Diddy trial is nearing jury deliberations, with King Combs and Diddy's family expected to attend, and it remains uncertain if Ye will be present. Overall, Ye's musical activities reflect both his artistic continued output and his personal alliances amidst significant legal and public scrutiny.
