Christian Combs wants people to know he's more than just "Diddy's son."

Christian "King" Combs thinks that he's made fans wait long enough. The 20-year-old artist announced on Instagram that he's dropping a new album tomorrow, so folks better look out. Combs shared a black and white photo of himself holding the iconic Bad Boy Records chain with the title of the album, Cyncerely, C3, written across the bottom along with the tracklist. The young rapper's latest effort boasts features from Ty Dolla $ign, Jeremih, Smooky MarGielaa, AZChike, 03 Greedo, City Girls, Trey Livin, and more. 

Combs has been rolling out music for a few years now, signing to Bad Boy back in 2016 and releasing singles "All Eyez On C" and "Love You Better" featuring Chris Brown. Last spring Combs dropped his 90s Baby mixtape, a record that showcased the rappers hip hop influences of previous generations. 

Combs hopes that as people listen to his music, they'll see him as a true artist who works just as hard as other rappers in the studio. "I think the advantages of being Puff Daddy’s son is definitely getting advice and being able to learn the ropes and see how to do certain things and how not to do and just basically getting to see the success by just watching him and being a fly on the wall."

"And I think the disadvantage is probably the people like you said doubting me or thinking we don't work as hard as they do or them thinking people probably write for me or make my beats," Combs continued. "It's really nobody. It's me and [my group] CYN. So that's one of the hard things, the disadvantages to me. But they'll know soon."
