Eight years after their brief business-related beef, it’s all “LOVE” between Sean “Diddy” Combs and Dr. Dre.

Harlem-born Diddy, 52, posted photos with Compton native Dre, 57, to Instagram on Tuesday that showed the two working on music together in a recording studio.

In the first of five pics, the legendary duo locks hands while Diddy speaks into a smiling Dre’s ear.

The second still shows the pair vibing to their collaboration, as the third and fourth pictures capture the “Coming Home” rapper Diddy intently listening to the “Nuthin’ but a ‘G’ Thang” mastermind.

The fifth photo captures Diddy laying down vocals in the recording booth.

Kanye West and Snoop Dogg were also spotted in the studio with the artists.

Diddy and Dr. Dre were shortly estranged after Tyrese Gibson posted an allegedly drunken video — in which Dre was standing right beside him — to Facebook in 2014, prematurely sharing that Apple was about to buy Dre’s Beats brand for $3.2 billion before the deal was finalized.

Diddy saw the clip and tattled to Beats co-founder Jimmy Iovine, which led Apple CEO Tim Cook to renegotiate the headphones deal to $3 billion — shorting Dre on $200 million.

However, Diddy invited Dre and Snoop out onstage during the final night of the Bad Boys Reunion Tour in Los Angeles in 2016.

Additionally, a rep for Diddy denied any longstanding beef to The Post.

“I remember the first time I heard @DrDre’s production. It gave me clear direction on the level of producer that I wanted to be,” Diddy started his Instagram caption on Tuesday.

“Last night, I got the chance to work with this man and to see his genius as he coached me through vocals. He reminded me of myself, but with a different style and way more focused. I gotta step my focus up, LOL!” he laughed.

“But it was a great experience and I thank God for it. I hope one day ya’ll get to have the same experience with someone that you always looked up to as a hero,” Diddy concluded.
