Fiddy vs. Diddy: Everything We Know About Sean Combs: The Reckoning Documentary

The long-rumoured 50 Cent–produced Diddy documentary is officially real, and it’s arriving much sooner than expected. Sean Combs: The Reckoning lands on Netflix on December 2nd, and the anticipation is already through the roof. In this video discussion, we break down everything we know so far, everything we think we’ll see, and why this documentary could be one of the most explosive releases of the year.

For years, whispers, allegations, and behind-the-scenes industry stories have surrounded Sean “Diddy” Combs. From former collaborators to ex-Bad Boy artists, many have hinted that there were darker truths behind the shiny-suit era and the mogul’s rise to cultural dominance. With 50 Cent behind the production, fans are expecting a documentary that won’t shy away from uncomfortable truths. If there’s one thing about 50, it’s that he never holds back. Diddy has been a target in his crosshairs for a long time, and as we all know, when you’re in beef with 50 Cent, you’re in beef for life. Unless your name is Fat Joe.

In the video (above), we also dive into the long, complicated history between 50 Cent and Diddy. Their beef goes back decades, ranging from business rivalry and public jabs to deeper industry tension. This documentary feels like the culmination of years of back-and-forth, with 50 taking the opportunity to lead the narrative in a way we’ve never seen before.

Sean Combs was involved in a high-profile trial earlier this year, where he was convicted on two counts of transportation for prostitution. He is currently serving a 50-month sentence, but there is speculation that the sentence will be reduced or pardoned.

We already know that former Bad Boy artist Mark Curry—author of Dancing With the Devil—has been confirmed as part of the series. His involvement alone suggests the documentary will tackle some of the most notorious stories surrounding the label. But who else might step forward? We share a few predictions, from artists with long-standing grievances to insiders who have kept quiet until now. If the rumors are true, this could be the most revealing look at Diddy’s career to date. One name that came up in our discussion was Gene Deal, the former bodyguard of Sean Diddy Combs. Will he make an appearance in this documentary?
