Diddy-Kanye West Leaked Phone Call

The conversation between the two artists came shortly after a phone call spread round the internet, offering a brief glimpse into their long-standing friendship that has survived through difficult times.

Combs, currently incarcerated, reached out to West with a blend of caution and encouragement. .

Calling prison life "wicked," Combs reminded West to tread lightly in his own life and said his face is needed in the game.

West replied with sympathy saying that Combs had a "really bad deal," and expressing his frustrations.

"I hear you. Yes, sir," he said, signaling his attentiveness to Combs' advice.

The call also underscored Combs' deep appreciation for West's support, particularly when it comes to looking after his children during his incarceration.
