According to the report, Kanye, who is now legally known as Ye, is the producer and executive producer of the project. The play stands as both a musical statement and a personal act of loyalty.
According to the report, in the track Diddy Free, 'King' Combs passionately raps, saying no one is going to sleep until they see 'Diddy free'. In another lyric from the rap, which was yet another direct reference to the ongoing trial against his father, Christian claimed that the trial was a way to malign Sean Combs' image.

The Variety report added that the Never Stop EP also featured a surprise guest: North West, the 11-year-old daughter of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian.
Reportedly, she made an appearance on the track Lonely Roads and it has added a family-driven layer to the release.

Meanwhile, inside the Manhattan courtroom on Friday morning, Diddy's defense team presented their closing arguments. They argued that the federal case against the musician was based on falsehoods and consensual relationships. Reportedly, they described Combs' lifestyle as part of a 'swingers' culture rather than a criminal enterprise.
The counsel insisted there was no evidence of non-consensual sex trafficking or organized racketeering, the Variety report stated. They reiterated that the case was a character assassination based on hearsay and distorted narratives.
