Additionally, he made appearances on a number of songs by different musicians. He founded All Out Records as his record company in 1998 and released his second album, Double Up the following year.
He took a five-year hiatus from music to enroll at Clark Atlanta University and pursue the priesthood. In 2004, he made a comeback with the release of his third album, Welcome Back.

Infamous Feud Between Mase and Diddy
In the early 2000s, Mase and Diddy had a falling out. When licensing deals weren’t going his way the rapper quit his Bad Boy label. Up until the 2020 Grammy relations between the two remained friendly.
In his acceptance speech, Diddy, who received the Icon Award for his achievements in the business, criticized the Grammy Awards for undervaluing black artists. Mase posted on Instagram in a since-deleted post to rip his former label boss.
It was over the unjust treatment he endured while signed to Bad Boy, despite the fact that many artists found Diddy’s statements to be inspiring. He claimed that he made Diddy an offer of $2 million in cash to buy back his publishing rights.
He had given to Diddy 24 years before for only $20,000. In 2022, he appears to have taken another shot at the mogul, releasing Oracle 2: The Liberation of Mason Betha targeting Diddy. He hasn’t named anyone, but his fans believe it’s Diddy.
