Kanye West reportedly had no interest in meeting up with Sean "Diddy" Combs at a concert earlier this month -- days before the music mogul's homes were raided by federal agents.

Combs and his entourage watched West -- who now goes by Ye -- and Ty Dolla $ign debut their collaboration record "Vultures 1" at the hip-hop festival Rolling Loud in Los Angeles on March 14.

While hanging out backstage at the event, Combs reportedly told "people close to Ye" that he wanted to meet with him to say hello after his performance, unnamed sources "with direct knowledge" told TMZ.

However, the sources claimed that West wasn't interested when he was told about Combs' proposal, and it ultimately did not happen.

Speculations surfaced earlier this month that West and Combs might be mending their relationship after the latter was captured on video appearing in the crowd at the "Gold Digger" hitmaker's Rolling Loud set.

Footage published by TMZ earlier this month showed Combs entering the venue with his twin daughters, Jessie and D'Lila Combs.

Photos posted on X from the festival also showed Combs watching Ye's controversial performance from the back or side stage area with his son Justin.

West fell out with Combs in 2022 after the latter called out his fellow rapper via Instagram for selling "White Lives Matter" T-shirts and encouraged his fans not to buy them.

"I have always been there, and I will also support my brother Kanye as a free thinker," Combs wrote at the time, according to XXL. "But the 'White Lives Matter' T-shirt, I don't rock with it.

Shortly after, West posted on Instagram purported screenshots of a text conversation with Combs, in which the "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy" rapper declared: "Nobody can get in between me and my money."

According to the alleged screenshots, Combs asked West to meet up so they could talk face-to-face.

"N***a [f**k] you. You fed," West allegedly responded.

Combs' surprise Rolling Loud appearance came days before Los Angeles and Miami properties belonging to him were raided by Homeland Security reportedly in connection with a sex trafficking investigation.

The Bad Boy Records boss has denied all wrongdoing, with his lawyer calling the raids a "witch hunt."

In recent months, Combs has been slapped with several civil lawsuits accusing him of sexual assault, rape and sex trafficking, among other disturbing allegations.

The latest lawsuit came from producer Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones, who accused Combs of running a "sex trafficking venture" and using hidden cameras to record celebrities, athletes and other guests at parties held at his homes without their consent or knowledge.

Combs has denied all the claims in the five lawsuits filed against him since November 2023.
