Ty Dolla $ign Seemingly Backs Diddy in Early 'FRIED' Demo Leak
Ty Dolla $ign has never been afraid to associate with controversial figures in the music industry. A prime example of this was his collaboration with Kanye West, releasing two joint albums during one of the most tumultuous periods of West’s career.
One of the tracks from this partnership, "FRIED," featured on "VULTURES 2", has now become a talking point once again after a demo version leaked on October 11.
But this time, the conversation revolves around Ty Dolla $ign’s surprising support for another embattled figure: Diddy.
In the demo version of "FRIED," Ty Dolla $ign delivers a verse that didn't make the final cut, but its message has left fans buzzing.
In the scrapped lyrics, he boldly defends Diddy, despite the rap mogul's current legal troubles.
"Don’t say no Diddy ’round me, that’s my dog."
Ty said, standing by his friend at a time when public opinion of Diddy is at an all-time low.

This stance is especially shocking in 2024, considering the legal charges currently looming over Diddy.
The Bad Boy Records founder is facing serious allegations, including federal charges of se* trafficking and racketeering, which could land him a sentence of 15 years to life.
With Diddy currently incarcerated and awaiting trial, Ty Dolla $ign’s decision to publicly defend him, even in a leaked demo, is raising eyebrows across the music world.
Given Diddy's controversial history and his current legal battles, Ty Dolla $ign's choice to speak out in his favor is definitely an unexpected move.
It's also noteworthy in light of Kanye West’s past feelings toward Diddy. West, who has had his own share of high-profile disputes, once voiced a very different opinion on the Bad Boy mogul.
The leaked demo has reignited conversation around "VULTURES 2" and Ty Dolla $ign's fearless approach to music.
While the final version of "FRIED" may have left out the Diddy reference, this leak shows that Ty is willing to stand by his friends, even when it could stir controversy.
As fans digest the snippet, it's clear that Ty Dolla $ign's bold stance is just as much a part of his artistic persona as his signature sound.
