Rapper 50 Cent, known for his ongoing feud with Sean “Diddy” Combs, has secured a home for his controversial docuseries about the sexual assault allegations against Combs. Netflix won the “bidding war” for the still-untitled series, according to 50 Cent himself.
The project, spearheaded by 50 Cent’s G-Unit Film and Television, will delve into the accusations levied against Combs in recent months. At least four women have come forward alleging rape, abuse, and sex trafficking by the music mogul. Combs has vehemently denied all claims.
News of the Netflix deal coincides with a new lawsuit filed against Combs by a former model, alleging a 2003 drugging and sexual assault. This latest accusation adds to a string of legal actions against Combs.
While details on the docuseries remain scarce, 50 Cent has hinted at additional episodes if more victims step forward. He also stated on social media that proceeds would benefit organizations supporting survivors of sexual assault.
This development comes after a viral but fake “Diddy Do It?” Netflix documentary poster circulated online earlier this year. The project faced criticism for potentially exploiting the serious allegations against Combs.
50 Cent’s longstanding feud with Combs appears to have fueled his determination to bring this project to light. He’s used social media to comment on the accusations and even the leaked video showing Combs’ aggressive behavior towards his ex-girlfriend. The federal raid on Combs’ homes in March also drew a reaction from 50 Cent, further escalating the tension.
With Netflix on board, 50 Cent’s docuseries is poised to reignite the conversation surrounding the allegations against Diddy. It remains to be seen how the streaming giant will handle this sensitive subject matter.
