Diddy Slams 50 Cent’s Netflix Documentary Over ‘Stolen’ Footage

    Diddy has hit out at 50 Cent and Netflix’s new docuseries Sean Combs: The Reckoning, labelling it a “shameful hit piece” that uses “stolen footage that was never authorized for release.”

    Shortly before the four-part series, which “unpacks the shocking allegations behind [Diddy] and his Bad Boy empire, spanning decades of his life and career,” premiered on Netflix on Tuesday (December 2), a spokesperson for the incarcerated mogul issued a statement dismissing the documetary’s credibility.

    Puffy’s team takes particular issue with the inclusion of never-before-seen footage recorded in the days leading up to his September 2024 arrest, showing the Bad Boy boss strategizing with his legal team over a phone call.

    “We need to find someone who will work with us who has worked in the dirtiest of dirty businesses … We are losing,” Combs, who at the time had been hit with a wave of sexual assault lawsuits and was soon to be indicted on sex trafficking and racketeering charges, says in the clip.

    “As Netflix and CEO Ted Sarandos know, Mr. Combs has been amassing footage since he was 19 to tell his own story, in his own way. It is fundamentally unfair, and illegal, for Netflix to misappropriate that work,” Diddy’s spokesperson said.

    “Netflix is plainly desperate to sensationalize every minute of Mr. Combs’s life, without regard for truth, in order to capitalize on a never-ending media frenzy. If Netflix cared about truth or about Mr. Combs’s legal rights, it would not be ripping private footage out of context – including conversations with his lawyers that were never intended for public viewing. No rights in that material were ever transferred to Netflix or any third party.”

    In response, Netflix quoted Sean Combs: The Reckoning director Alexandria Stapleton who said: “It came to us, we obtained the footage legally and have the necessary rights. We moved heaven and earth to keep the filmmaker’s identity confidential.

    “One thing about Sean Combs is that he’s always filming himself, and it’s been an obsession throughout the decades. We also reached out to Sean Combs’ legal team for an interview and comment multiple times, but did not hear back.”

    Diddy’s rep also slammed Netflix for involving 50 Cent, a long-standing rival of Diddy who they say has a “personal vendetta” against the mogul, as an executive producer of the docuseries.

    “For Netflix to give his life story to someone who has publicly attacked him for decades feels like an unnecessary and deeply personal affront. At minimum, he expected fairness from people he respected,” the statement read.

    50 Cent has yet to address Diddy’s complaint, but he did explain his intent behind the docuseries in an interview with Good Morning America earlier this week.

    “If I didn’t say anything, you would interpret it as: hip-hop is fine with his behavior. There’s no one else being vocal,” he said.

    Fif also rejected the notion that his so-called feud with Diddy injected a personal bias into the documentary, saying: “What they consider a pre-existing beef for 20 years is me being uncomfortable with him suggesting that he takes me shopping. I looked at like he was [testing me]. Like, ‘Maybe you’ll come play with me.’”

    “It’s not personal,” he insisted.

    1. The booty holes of many men and former Bad Boy artists were stolen but he still got away with it so there’s that.

          1. No way he ever said that. Damn Drake fans still mad that their boy got pissed on by his homeboy and liked it.

            1. Pause no one has anyones dicks in their moutj except you guys with Kendrick and now NLE also Eminem. You people just want agenda not real rap you complain about the culture or mainstream labels but only listen to those artisrs then join in on the garbage outdated online jokes like Kendrick and Drake that happened last year still on that or making Diddy jokes when he wasn’t the top guy and is being jailed over a lawsuit against Diageo many others have done worse also they all knew and stayed quiet. Look Eminem loved him now he makes Diddy jokes all fake. Kendrick and JCole too and they won’t call out the people used signed them in the beginning Dre and Jay. Kendrick even worse is a hypocrite working with Carti aftet accusing Drake of stuff and same with Dre.

      1. You don’t need a polished resume or years of experience to start your online career; (de629) the internet is the great equalizer where anyone with drive can build success from scratch.
        The site is menti0ned on my pr0file name”

          1. Kendrick hangs with them his friend got caught on a Vitaly stream a pred catch what you mean and worse he called out Drake and OVO but was on tour with Carti and Opium all those guys got cases Carti, Ken Carson, and Destroy. Add on Kendrick covering for Eminem who attacks black people all the time Future saying he won’t exist in the future, Migos, Michael Jackson, Coi Leray, and others but he called Drake out? Weirdly enough Eminem has said he loves Drake he loves Kendrick too and I would say his audience is worse for hip hop Drake was 2 Eminem is 1. Dre is another issue everything Kendrick accused Drake of Dre did same with Drake to Kendrick, Dre also did that but Kendrick says nothing. He also looks like a hypocrite taking money from the people he claims to hate he has a ego Nike, Converse, Apple, NFL, UMG, why take money from them and stay? He had a Chuck Taylor shoe and a Cortez one named after a white guy and the other a colonizer. Kendrick also has done nothing to help victims of wildfires and endorsed the politicians like Newsom who robbed people to pocket it himself for elections. He supports the whole replacement stuff in California for rich whites and poor servant mexicans also supports the mexicans. The Carti connection is hypocritical too same thing as Dre.

        1. Your idol Drake is the pedo.. No matter how many times you post, under how many different names, the fact remains the same

          1. No ome idolizes him you guys idolize Kendrick. People can dislike both but you people refuse to see that just complete tourists. Kendrick sucks and so does Drake.

      1. What?! Bro has like 4 kids I swear you vultures like Scruface and ShawnCee have nothing else to do. He is a great person and the future president of the US. Stay mad, Diddy was a huge influence on society of today and unlike Trump he will be the dictator people want.

        1. Wait… you think that Diddy has never fucked dudes before? 😂 Many married men are secretly gay or bisexual.. and Diddy is as fruity as they come…

          1. Wait… you think I don’t take it in the butt just like Meek Mill and French Montana. I take my many dicks like daddy Diddy wants..I swallow gender fluid…I stay eating a sack lunch.

            1. Ew pause but you clowns have to keep lying that all. Push narrstives and agenda for yoir vulture logic. Diddy is him you can defend him and not be gay but fine be crazy simp for otjer rappers that are gay in the closet JayZ, Eminem, Dre, Snoop, 50, all tied to him and went to his parties then turned on him when the big companies were upset.

    2. anyone watched power it really gives you a rare insight in to new york city and how the affluent like diddy 50 jay z etc…….. live

    3. I’ve been patiently waiting for a man’s back to explode, You can skeet on my chest, want the rest to be rubbed on(It’s sticky),
      And it feels like my load been hot for so long (Yeah),
      If you thinkin’ I’m not going get my nut off, you’re so wrong
