50 Cent Opens Up About His Upcoming ‘Reckoning’ Diddy Documentary

50 Cent’s Sean Combs: The Reckoning documentary is set to hit Netflix on Tuesday (Dec. 2), and ahead of the explosive four-part docuseries’ arrival, 50 and director Alexandria Stapleton sat down with Robin Roberts for Good Morning America on Monday (Dec. 1) to reveal details of the opus about the Bad Boy Records founder’s fall from grace.

The Reckoning obtained never-before-seen footage of Diddy that was reportedly slated for a doc that he was allegedly filming before the embattled Bad Boy mogul’s arrest in September 2024. One scene finds him in conversation with his legal team, imploring them to up their game.

“Listen to me, I am going to let you professionals look at the situation and come back to me with a solution,” Diddy said from what appears to be a hotel room. “Y’all are not working together the right way. We’re losing.”

There’s another scene that shows Diddy amongst the people in Harlem and then asking for hand sanitizer after getting into his car. “I been out in the streets amongst the people, I gotta take a bath. The amount of people I’m coming into contact with, that’s what I have to do,” Diddy said.

50 believes that the scene is a look into Combs’ manipulative ways. “It shows you his character,” longtime Diddy antagonist 50 told Roberts. “What’s the odds you would do that in front of a camera? That’s one of the moments he forgot he was on tape.”

A spokesperson for Combs relayed to the New York Times that they were “deeply concerned” about the inclusion of “private moments” before Diddy’s indictment that are included in the docuseries. “None of this was obtained from Sean Combs or his team, and its inclusion raises very serious questions about how this material was accessed and why Netflix chose to use it,” said Combs spokesperson Juda Engelmayer.

The G-Unit mogul pushed back against the narrative that he’s using the docuseries to needle his longtime foe instead of uplifting the victims’ stories.

“What they consider a pre-existing beef for 20 years is me being uncomfortable with him suggesting he takes me shopping,” 50 Cent added. “I looked at it like I was a tester — like, ‘Maybe you will come play with me.’”

The four-part series also includes interviews with two jurors who delivered the mixed verdict that found Combs guilty of prostitution charges in his federal trial, but dodging charges of sex trafficking and racketeering. Combs was ultimately sentenced to 50 months in prison in October.

The Reckoning — which hits Netflix on Tuesday — will explore Combs’ federal trial and history of alleged sexual abuse. He’s repeatedly denied sexually assaulting anyone despite testimony from two former girlfriends at his trial alleging physical, emotional and sexual abuse. The doc will see contributions from former associates, friends, artists and employees who came forward to detail the world behind the Bad Boy empire.
