The upcoming docuseries, Sean Combs: The Reckoning, which focuses on the legal troubles of Sean “Diddy” Combs, will make its debut this week, and a new trailer has been released. Adding to this, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, one of the producers of the docuseries, is continuing to double down on his verbal disdain of Diddy.
Netflix released a teaser clip of Sean Combs: The Reckoning, featuring Diddy speaking to someone who is presumably a member of his inner circle on a cellphone and expressing frustration in locating a legal team to take on his case. The teaser clip is dated September 10, 2024, and Combs is seen staring out of a hotel window.
While seated, Combs speaks into the phone, saying, “We have to find somebody that’ll work with us that has dealt in the dirtiest of dirty business,” with the moment ending with Combs passionately uttering, “We’re losing.”
In the midst of the new trailer dropping, 50 Cent is back to trolling Combs and shared a clip of his appearance on Good Morning America in support of Sean Combs: The Reckoning. The caption for the post reads, “What feud, I put two of his kids in my scripted Tv shows. I just didn’t like he said fruity sh*t to me. [frowning emoji] and he said fruity sh*t to me, I don’t like that! LOL @50centaction DEC 2 Netflix.”
Sean Combs: The Reckoning will air in four parts and make its debut on December 2. Check out the trailer below.

Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson is set to produce a four-part documentary aimed at the rise and fall of Sean “Diddy” Combs. Since Diddy’s imprisonment, 50 Cent has delivered several jabs at the Bad Boy Records mogul, highlighting Combs’ legal woes.
As spotted in Deadline, Fif had teased the development of the documentary series nearly two years ago, and now, Sean Combs: The Reckoning will make its debut on Netflix in December.
Filmmaker and documentarian Alexanderia Stapleton (Pride, The Playbook) is the director of the four-part series and one of its producers. Also joining the production side, along with Stapleton and Jackson, are Stacy Scripter, David Karabinas, Ariel Brozell, and Brad Bernstein. The documentary is produced by House of Nonfiction, G-Unit Film & Television, and Texas Crew Productions.
From Deadline:
Diddy. Puff Daddy. Love. The public knows the hip-hop icon by many names — but who is the real Sean Combs? Sean Combs: The Reckoning is a staggering examination of the media mogul, music legend, and convicted offender. Born with an insatiable drive for stardom and a knack for spotting talent, Combs made a quick ascent through the ranks of the music industry with Bad Boy Entertainment and was crucial in bringing hip-hop to the pop masses and launching the careers of dozens of generation-defining artists like The Notorious B.I.G., Mary J. Blige, Jodeci, and Danity Kane.
“Being a woman in the industry, and going through the Me Too movement — watching giants in music and film go on trial, and to know what their outcomes were…When Cassie dropped her lawsuit, I just thought this could go a million different directions,” says director Alexandria Stapleton. “As a woman, I wondered how she had the confidence to go out there against a mogul like Sean Combs. As a filmmaker, I instantly knew it was a stress test of whether we’ve changed as a culture as far as being able to process allegations like this in a fair way,” Stapleton shared.

Sean “Diddy” Combs seems to be adjusting to life as the most famous inmate at FCI Fort Dix just fine, with images showing him smiling and conversing with others as he serves his time. New images featuring Diddy have also surfaced, showing the mogul at his media library job inside the facility’s chapel.
TMZ shared video footage that appears to come from a smartphone or tablet from inside FCI Fort Dix, and showed Sean “Diddy” Combs in his full prison regalia walking around the media library.
The video shows Combs getting ready to end his day at work, where he hands out religious scriptures and videos to inmates. The video’s quality isn’t the greatest, but one can clearly see that it is the mogul, and his beard shows prominent shades of grey. Combs kept on a brown skullcap the entire time before the video switches. He’s seen speaking with another man, who hands him an object that is hard to make out in the clip.
In another video, Combs is no longer wearing his coat or skullcap as he walks up to another inmate and has what appears to be a pleasant conversation. There is no sound in the video, and it is unknown if Combs was aware that he was being recorded. Among all of the footage that has leaked from Fort Dix, Combs looks to be in great spirits in most of it.
Diddy is currently serving a 50-month sentence for violating the Mann Act and is expected to go free in 2028.

Looks like Diddy is going to be in prison a little longer than he expected. According to Page Six, Sean “Diddy” Combs’ prison release date has been pushed back a month and speculation is that’s because the disgraced Hip-Hop mogul keeps breaking the rules.
“The embattled music mogul was initially expected to finish serving time at Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institute in New Jersey on May 8, 2028,” Page Six reports. That date has now been changed to June 4, 2028.
While there has been no official reason for the added time to Diddy’s sentence, Page Six notes that the adjustment in the arguably best ad-libber since Pete Rock’s sentence comes after reports of several prison rules violations.

Just last week, TMZ reported that Combs was in “trouble with prison officials” for consuming “homemade alcohol” made from apples, soda and fermented sugar.
Combs’ spokesperson told Page Six that Diddy was adjusting to life at FCI Fort Dix and “working on himself and doing better each day.”
The rep added, “As with any high-profile individual in a new environment, there will be many rumors and exaggerated stories throughout his time there — most of them untrue. We ask that people give him the benefit of the doubt, the privacy to focus on his personal growth,” Page Six reports.
CBS News reported, Friday, that Combs was busted again for reportedly having a prohibited three-way phone call. The alleged three-way call reportedly took place on Nov. 3, just four days before Combs was transferred from Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center to the low-security New Jersey prison. Also a new mugshot of Diddy where he displayed his gray hair has been trending on social media.
Combs claimed he didn’t know that a “third party or three-way calls are not authorized” as he was never given the prison admission and orientation handbook.
Combs has been locked up since his arrest in September 2024 when he was charged with “racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution,” Page Six reports.

Sean “Diddy” Combs might be the most famous inmate at FCI Fort Dix, as evidenced by all the chatter and discussion about his entering the facility after being transferred from New York. A photo of Diddy surfaced online, showing the mogul’s distinctive features as his hair and beard are peppered with gray.
A report from CBS News shared details regarding Sean “Diddy” Combs’ time at FCI Fort Dix after arriving at the facility on October 30. The low-security facility is a far cry from the reportedly infamous and dangerous conditions the mogul faced while at MCI in Brooklyn.
The outlet reports that Combs is currently working at FCI Fort Dix’s chapel, adding to earlier reports that he was working the laundry room, and is also part of a drug treatment program, according to documents obtained by CBS News. Combs is currently facing discipline for taking an unauthorized phone call, which would remove his phone and commissary privileges briefly.

As the chapel assistant, a former employee of the prison says that this is one of the most sought-after jobs behind bars. Further, the intensive drug treatment program he entered is reportedly difficult to obtain entry into.
“He works in the chapel library, where he describes the environment as warm, respectful, and rewarding,” said Combs’ publicist Juda Engelmayer, in a statement to CBS News.
On November 3, Combs reportedly made a three-way phone call without the blessing of prison officials. Such calls are not allowed according to the rules set by the Bureau of Prisons. It has not been reported what or how long the disciplinary actions will last for Combs.
In a recent report, it was stated that Combs was caught drinking a makeshift alcoholic beverage at FCI Fort Dix, a claim his family has forcefully denied.
Combs is currently serving four years after being convicted on prostitution charges in his high-profile case.

Sean “Diddy” Combs was transferred to federal prison in Fort Dix, New Jersey, on Thursday to begin his 50-month sentence, a Bureau of Prisons spokeswoman said.
The 55-year-old disgraced music mogul has spent his time at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, before he was sentenced to 50 months (4 years) on two counts of interstate prostitution.
Combs was acquitted of the more serious charges of racketeering and sex trafficking and pleaded not guilty while maintaining his innocence.

According to NBC News, Combs’ new living arrangements for the next 4 years, Fort Dix prison, is a low-security prison for men that houses up to approximately 4,000 inmates.
Combs’ legal team asked U.S. District Court Judge Arun Subramanian at his sentencing to send him to Fort Dix for drug rehabilitation and an opportunity to be closer to his family.
The news website also reports that Combs’ legal team will seek an expedited appeals schedule while calling the prosecution’s use of the “Mann Act,” which forbids by law traveling across state lines to engage in prostitution, “unfair.”
Diddy is slated to be released on May 8, 2028, and could be let out of prison earlier for good behavior, or have his whole jail sentence commuted if Donald Trump issues him a pardon. Trump is reportedly not considering it at the moment.
Speaking with reporters from the Oval Office, Trump revealed that Diddy’s team did reach out to him in hopes of securing a pardon.
“A lot of people have asked me for pardons,” Trump said. “I call him Puff Daddy, [he] has asked me for a pardon.”
Well, we hope Diddy uses his time behind bars, however long that is, to reflect on life and come out of the experience a fully rehabilitated person.

CNN Newsnight Anchor Abby Phillip opened up about her extremely awkward interview with rapper/podcast host Cam’ron.
Phillip sat down as a guest on The Breakfast Club on Tuesday, October 28, to plug her new book, A Dream Deferred: Jesse Jackson and the Fight for Black Political Freedom, but the conversation shifted to her awkward exchange with the It Is What It Is host.
She was asked about the interview in which she asked Cam’ron about the allegations Diddy was facing.
Instead of adding his opinion on the matter, Cam’ron plugged his sexual enhancement supplements, Pink Horsepower, and even took a sip of it before adding that he was going to get some “cheeks.”
“I knew that we needed to end the interview,” Phillip told the morning radio show hosts. “We were up against the end of the show, and we had to get to a certain time. I had to land that plane, and I did. And look, I mean, it was ridiculous, but as we know, that was the point.”

When Charlamagne jokingly asked about transcribers being confused by the “cheeks” remark, Phillip laughed it off, adding that the staff all wondered, “What just happened?”
Abby Phillip Knew From The Jump That A Quick Wrap From Cam’ron Was Necessary
Phillip then said she wouldn’t give the situation “much more oxygen,” revealing that it was Cam’ron’s team that had requested the Diddy question, despite Cam’ron’s response.
“All I will say is that we were told by his team that he wanted to talk about this, not the other way around,” Phillip revealed.
She also claims that the CNN team knew from the jump that an immediate wrap would be necessary.
“It was from the get-go,” Phillip said. “I’m not new to this. Like, I know from the beginning when somebody is not interested in being interviewed.”
Phillip also claims the Dipset founder was late to the interview, but it serves as a consolation prize; Cam did tell The Breakfast Club that his viral moment with CNN was his favorite interview.

Diddy will have to hear different type of bars for the next couple of years. His release date has been confirmed.
As per Complex Diddy’s release date has been revealed. The online magazine is exclusively reporting that the Bureau of Prisons has confirmed that Bad Boy Entertainment founder is slated to be released May 8, 2028. While that may seem like only two and a half years, the release date includes his time served since he was arrested on Sept. 16, 2024. Diddy was found guilty on two counts of transportation for the purposes of prostitution. His legal team has expressed dissatisfaction with the judge’s sentencing. According to BBC his lawyers notified the United States Federal Court that they plan to appeal the conviction and 50 month sentence.
Earlier this month President Donald Trump was asked about the rumors that he is considering formally pardoning Diddy. While he confirmed that the disgraced entrepreneur did in fact request for his sentence be commuted by the POTUS, Trump made it clear that the plea isn’t out the ordinary. “A lot of people have asked me for pardons” the politician said. Last week The White House publicly denounced the hearsay that Donald Trump would pardon Diddy via a formal statement. “There is zero truth to the TMZ report, which we would’ve gladly explained had they reached out before running their fake news,” the official told NBC News in a statement. “The President, not anonymous sources, is the final decider on pardons and commutations.”
In recent news Diddy’s friend Charlucci Finney shared with The Daily Mail that the “I Need A Girl” rapper was almost attacked while in jail. “He woke up with a knife to his throat” Finney revealed. “I don’t know whether he fought him off or the guards came, I just know that it happened.” A representative from Metropolitan Detention Center, the facility where Diddy is being housed, has yet to comment on the alleged incident. Between appeals, rumors of pardons, and reports from behind bars, Diddy’s legal saga is far from over.
Sean “Diddy Combs is currently serving his prison sentence in one of the nation’s most notorious facilities, and according to a friend, there was a brush of violence for the beleaguered mogul. In a report, it was revealed by a friend of Diddy’s that a fellow inmate pressed a knife to his throat after sneaking into his cell.
As exclusively reported by The Daily Mail, Diddy, who is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, was approached by the inmate who fashioned a makeshift knife and held it against Combs’ throat, according to his best friend, Charlucci Finney.
“He woke up with a knife to his throat,” Finney told the outlet. “I don’t know whether he fought him off or the guards came, I just know that it happened.”
Finney continued, “If this guy had wanted to harm him, Sean would have been harmed. It would only take a second to cut his throat with a weapon and kill him. It was probably a way to say: ‘Next time you ain’t gonna be so lucky.’ Everything is intimidation. But with Sean it won’t work. Sean is from Harlem.”
Attorneys for Combs have attempted to have their client moved out of MDC due to the constant threat of violence and harm. They are angling to have Diddy moved to FCI Fort Dix in Hanover Township, N.J. This is a low-security facility where they hope to have Combs serve his 50-month sentence and enter a drug rehab program.
