A new track from King Combs' supergroup.

King Combs, the latest Bad Boy signee and son of Sean "Diddy" Combs, has shared a new record with his crew CYN. Combs is joined by Kai Ca$h, ShaqnLivin, and K Wales on "Berry," which salutes Halle in its artwork. The record feels like a throwback to a time in New York rap that was equally focused on lyrics and personality, but one that went lush over gritty in terms of production. The many emcees go hookless, handing off the mic for a series of 16s that keep up the energy while differentiating themselves with varying styles. The song was released alongside another King Combs x CYN track called "Playa Hate" on SoundCloud.

Combs recently released the videos for "Fuck The Summer Up" and "Type Different."

In April, it was announced that Combs had signed with Bad Boy. "I couldn't be prouder of Christian," said Diddy of the deal. "He's an incredibly talented artist with a bright future. Christian has earned this opportunity from hard work and dedication and he represents the future of Bad Boy." Meanwhile, Epic Records CEO L.A. Reid added, “Our ability to pass the torch to a new generation is what music history is all about. I have watched Christian grow into a very talented young artist and it fills me with great pride to share this with my brother and friend Puffy."

Combs also shared his own excitement of the new stage of his career on Instagram. "Yesterday was the greatest day of my life," he wrote. "Not only was it my birthday, but Also the day a dream came true. I got signed to epic and BADboy records. I'm extremely thankful for everything that God has blessed me with and I will never take it for granted. Music is something that's been part of me my whole life."

Quotable Lyrics:
And the ladies come through
But they don't impress me much
Threw the ice in the sky
Got my Gretzky up
She say she wanna roll with the aces
The young don
RAFs on, n---a, no laces
They all gone
