50 Cent’s long-standing feud with Sean Diddy Combs is taking a new form with the announcement of a Netflix docuseries about Combs’ legal troubles, directed by Alexandria Stapleton. Rapper and actor 50 Cent, known for his sharp social commentary and history of trolling Combs, shared the news on social media, quoting a Variety report confirming 50 Cent’s Diddy docuseries on Netflix.
The docuseries will dive into Combs’ current legal battles, which involve serious charges in the Southern District of New York. Combs faces indictment on charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. If convicted, the music mogul, who has pleaded not guilty, could face life in prison. The upcoming series promises to provide a deeper look at these allegations, adding context and nuance to a story that has made waves in recent headlines.
In his social media post, 50 Cent took a victorious tone, saying, I been telling y’all about all this weird s**t, I don’t do NO puffy party’s. You didn’t believe me but I bet you believe me now! His words reflect the rapper’s ongoing mission to expose what he sees as Combs’ troubling past, which he has frequently addressed through both music and social media. For years, 50 Cent has been vocal about his disdain for Combs, hinting at dark secrets and wrongdoing long before Combs’ current legal predicament.
The feud between the two men dates back nearly two decades. In 2006, 50 Cent released a diss track titled The Bomb, in which he alleged that Combs knew the identity of the person responsible for the 1997 murder of rapper Christopher Wallace, better known as The Notorious B.I.G. Wallace was a close friend and protégé of Combs, and his murder remains unsolved. In the diss track, 50 Cent alludes to Combs’ knowledge of the event, while also referencing Combs’ famous “White Parties” in the Hamptons, saying, “I guess this means I won’t be invited to the White Parties in the Hamptons.”
In addition to his allegations regarding Wallace’s murder, 50 Cent has also speculated that Combs was connected to the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur, another high-profile, unsolved case from the golden era of hip-hop. Combs has repeatedly denied any involvement in either murder, dismissing such claims as nonsense in a 2016 interview on the syndicated radio show The Breakfast Club. Despite these denials, the suspicions have continued to follow him, fueled by figures like 50 Cent, whose relentless jabs have kept the rumors alive.

Currently in production, the docuseries promises to be more than just a retelling of the criminal allegations against Combs. In a joint statement with Stapleton, 50 Cent said, This is a story with significant human impact. It is a complex narrative spanning decades, not just the headlines or clips seen so far. The pair emphasized that the project aims to give a voice to the voiceless and present a more authentic and nuanced view of the events surrounding Combs. While the allegations against Combs are disturbing, 50 Cent and Stapleton stress that they do not want this story to overshadow the broader contributions of hip-hop and its culture. Their goal is to ensure that the actions of individuals do not define an entire genre that has been a significant cultural force for decades.
50 Cent first announced the project in May 2024, but at the time, many fans and commentators doubted whether it would come to fruition, given his history of trolling and public beefs with Combs. However, with Netflix backing the series and production underway, it appears that 50 Cent is serious about telling this controversial story.
