Christian ‘King’ Combs Releases ‘Lonely Roads (Feat. North West and JAAS)’ Music Video

Christian “King” Combs released a new music video for a song that features from North West and JAAS.

On Thursday, Sept. 18, the 27-year-old rapper released the “Lonely Roads” music video, which explores what Combs describes as “one of the darkest times” in his life.

The new track, which is included on Combs’ June EP Never Stop, features North and JAAS, and is produced by Ye, formerly known as Kanye West.

The music video documents Combs as he spends time with his siblings, Quincy, Justin, Jessie, D’Lila and Love, at their father Sean “Diddy” Combs’ home together.

Diddy has seven children: 34-year-old adopted son Quincy, Christian, 27, twins D’Lila and Jessie Combs, 18, all of whom he shares with the late Kim Porter; Justin, 31, whom he shares with Misa Hylton; daughter Chance, 18, with whom he shares Sarah Chapman; and Love, 2, whom he welcomed with Dana Tran.

In “Lonely Roads,” Christian raps about navigating a new path forward by himself.

The music video was released weeks before his father is set for sentencing on Oct. 3 on his conviction of transportation to engage in prostitution. 

Diddy is currently incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where he has been since he was denied bail, following his September 2024 arrest and then again after his conviction.

Diddy was convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution in July, but was acquitted on more serious charges of sex trafficking and racketeering following a closely watched trial. On Aug 4, a New York judge denied Diddy’s bail for a fifth time because he posed a risk of “flight or danger.”

After his father was convicted, Combs told the press, “We love y’all. We love everybody watching. I’m so happy. Pops coming home. God bless the whole world,” per Billboard.

“I think now that the truth is getting out and pops is on the way home, God willing,” Combs told Billboard in August. “I think we just need to stay with positivity, spread love. I just hope all the hate and all the negative stuff is past us and we can just move forward and with just love and good vibes. That’s what we’re here to do: never stop.”

Christian reiterated his support for his father in the single.

“Roll somethin’ up, take a puff for the name’s sake/ Put the whole world against me, I’ma keep the same face/ I wanted all the real love, the fake hate, the headlines gon’ still say ‘Vacate the throne’/ Young n—a, I’m home, dead wrong like B.I./ Still the king like T.I., still bop like D-I-D-D-Y,” he raps.

At the end of the song, North, 12, raps a verse about freedom: “Doing everything I want, that’s the key to life / When you see me shining, then you see the light.” 

North is the eldest child of Ye and Kim Kardashian. The former couple also shares sons, Saint West, 9, and Psalm, 6, and daughter Chicago, 7.

West voiced support for Diddy during the trial. On Friday, June 13, he appeared at the courthouse. While West wasn’t allowed in the courtroom, he watched the trial in the second overflow room with a monitor.

Christian concluded the video by sharing a written message thanking his family’s supporters.

“I love y’all more than words can say. This last year and a half was one of the darkest times in my life… but every stream, repost, every time someone stopped me just to say, ‘keep going’ — it all meant more than you know,” the text read.

“Y’all reminded me I wasn’t walking this road alone. Y’all gave me strength. Y’all helped me never stop. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Love, Christian.”
