50 Cent Netflix doc exposes 19 fresh claims against Diddy

Key Points

• 50 Cent’s new Netflix series shares harsh stories about Diddy. The film revisits Biggie and Tupac links and fresh money claims.

• Long-time colleagues describe fear, control and strange sex stories around Diddy. Some also worry he may seek revenge once he leaves prison.

• The documentary stresses these are claims and not proven in court. Diddy and some named people have denied several of the stories.

Sean “50 Cent (Curtis Jackson)” has brought years of whispers into one place with his new Netflix series Sean Combs: The Reckoning.

The four-part documentary digs into the life of music mogul “Diddy (Sean Combs)” through interviews, court files and old clips. Across four hours, guests share stories that paint a dark picture while also stressing that many claims are still untested.

The series follows months of fresh focus on Diddy’s court fights and the wider fallout in hip-hop. ValidUpdates earlier covered how 50 Cent teased the Netflix project and promised it would dig deep into long-standing claims.

Claims about Biggie and Tupac

1. Kirk Burrowes, a cofounder of Bad Boy, claims Diddy treated The Notorious B.I.G.’s funeral as a recoupable label cost. He says this meant Biggie’s estate had to pay back money spent on the memorial.
2. Former Bad Boy manager Wayne Barrow is shown rejecting that claim and other stories about Biggie’s contract. He insists the documentary misrepresents talk of a contract beef before the rapper’s death.
3. Some guests say people close to Diddy long felt he might be tied to Tupac Shakur’s killing. In one key soundbite, Burrowes says his “mature mind” now thinks Puff had “a lot” to do with Tupac’s death.
4. Burrowes also recalls being told Bad Boy should not travel to Los Angeles soon after Tupac died. He claims Biggie preferred a planned London trip but that Diddy pushed for Los Angeles, where Biggie was murdered a day later.
5. The film notes that Diddy still hoped to work with Tupac in that tense era. At the same time, sources say he felt deeply threatened by the West Coast star, who was not keen on any business.
6. Escort Clayton Howard alleges Diddy could not stand Tupac’s music in intimate settings. He claims that whenever Tupac songs came on during group sex, Diddy ordered Cassie to change the track at once.

Allegations from former Bad Boy insiders

7. The documentary revisits Burrowes’ claim that Diddy once entered an office carrying a baseball bat. He says Diddy demanded his 25-percent stake in Bad Boy and kept the bat on his shoulder until he gave in.
8. Burrowes recalls later signing his shares to Diddy’s mother, Janice Combs, who already held the remaining 75 percent. He now believes he was boxed out of the company by fear and pressure.
9. He further alleges Diddy ran a “shell game” with Bad Boy finances by hiding earnings and confusing royalty lines. According to him, artists spent two decades chasing money they believed they were owed.
10. The series includes a story about City College in 1991, the site of a fatal stampede. One witness claims Diddy called his mother a “bitch” and slapped her when she pressed him about the tragedy.
11. Former colleagues say they worry Diddy could seek revenge over their interviews once he is free. Several voices admit they are scared but feel the time has come to speak in public.
12. The documentary also revisits past reports that a huge stash of baby oil was seized from a property linked to Diddy. ValidUpdates earlier reported how 50 Cent mocked that case while teasing his documentary plans.

Disturbing stories about Cassie and other women

13. Making the Band singer Aubrey O’Day shares emails she says Diddy sent her in 2008. In one, he allegedly mixed porn talk with sexual pressure and told her to reach out when she was “ready” to obey him.
14. O’Day also reads an affidavit from an unnamed witness who says Diddy and another man sexually assaulted her in 2005. She explains she knew about the document before filming but cannot remember the incident herself and has chosen not to chase a case.
15. Howard claims Diddy and Cassie once stored his semen in a cup for a year. He says Diddy told him he liked to see Cassie “play with it,” and that the pair stopped asking after he questioned the practice.
16. The documentary repeats past claims from Howard that Diddy and Cassie held long sex-and-party trips around the anniversary of Biggie’s death. He says they would fly him in each 9 March for three or four days to drink while Diddy slept with Cassie.
17. Another strand centres on how women around Diddy were reportedly ranked. Kim Porter is described by insiders as the “wife,” while Cassie was allegedly viewed as “wifey” who had to vanish when Kim appeared.
18. Joi Dickerson-Neal says Diddy drugged and assaulted her in 1991 and that she later heard he filmed the act. Her mother is said to have written to Diddy’s parents in 1992 after hearing her daughter wake up screaming about the alleged attack.
19. Finally, the series notes that late rapper Craig Mack once spoke with Suge Knight about joining Death Row Records. Guests claim Mack backed away from the move because he felt genuinely afraid.

Throughout Sean Combs: The Reckoning, 50 Cent stresses these remain claims and personal stories rather than court findings. The series also notes that Diddy, Cassie and others have denied several specific points in the past or declined to comment.

Viewers are left to weigh the accounts for themselves as the hip-hop world wrestles with what the documentary has laid bare.
