In March of this year, Belize's Cultural Ambassador Shyne made international headlines when he reconciled with his former mentor Sean Diddy Combs.
It was major development because the widely held perception was that Shyne had taken the fall and served almost nine-years in prison after an evening with Diddy and his then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez ended in a violent shooting.
In April, Shyne spoke to Jules Vasquez about what was behind the reconciliation.

"So I was very fortunate, very blessed. If I couldn't thank him for my fortunes, how could I blame him for my misfortunes? I can't thank God in one breathe and then blame Diddy in another breath, it doesn't work like that. This is a watershed moments because I was one of those kids and I could have come up as you said and continue that cycle. I could have abided by that street code but I am breaking that chain, I am creating a new code and that code is self-accountability, so that's what allowed me to move away from any mis-logical street code because the only code I have is honor. I did what I was supposed to do. I didn't lie on another man to get myself out of trouble. I didn't talk about what another man did or didn't do to get myself out of trouble and that was the most important thing for me and I was rewarded for that. That's why I survived being incarcerated, so I've been extremely fortune why because I didn't sit down and blame anybody. I didn't sit down and force the hate for Diddy or anybody. I sat down and I held myself responsible."
Well, things have changed! This week Shyne released what is known as a "Diss Track," calling out Diddy for not helping him get back to America. Apparently Diddy had promised to send a tweet to his millions of followers on twitters to support Shyne's visa petition, but he never did. That visa petition fizzled badly - falling way short of the 25 thousand signatures required.
So the new Shyne track, named "You're Welcome" has nothing good to say about Diddy, accusing him of lying, treason and not living up to the code of the streets.
Here's a piece of that track:..

Shyne has also told interviewers that Diddy hasn't been financially supporting the mother of Anthony "Wolf" Jones, a former bodyguard who was in the club that night, and has been killed since in a separate incident.
