Imprisoned rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs is cooking up a career comeback for when he’s sprung from the slammer — which may result in a tour with R&B buddy Usher, tipsters tell Straight Shuter.
The fallen music mogul is slated for release in April 2028 after serving his sentence for prostitution-related charges.
Now, an insider spills, “He wants a massive comeback. Not quiet — global.”
A source says, “People are already floating it behind the scenes. A redemption tour, big emotions, big money — the industry loves this kind of drama.”

Usher, 47, recently revealed he has “nothing negative to say” about disgraced Diddy, 56, and praised his legacy — even calling him a “really hard teacher” who shaped his early career.
But the source says a collab between the artists isn’t a sure thing — yet.
“Usher is cautious,” the source adds. “He respects what they had, but he’s not risking his reputation for anyone.”
The concept is still just talk, but industry folks note that talk can turn into tickets — fast. “It would be huge — and hugely divisive,” says the insider. “Redemption to some. Outrage to others.”
