Sean Combs: The Reckoning, a bombshell documentary on Netflix, examines the rap mogul’s life prior to his infamous September 2024 arrest.
Netflix issued an urgent warning to viewers in the first episode of its new Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs documentary, Sean Combs: The Reckoning.
The four-part series examines the rap mogul’s rise to fame while keeping an eye on his ascent to hip-hop royalty.
The docuseries also provides insight into his feuds with fellow rappers, including the late Tupac Shakur, with exclusive interviews from his associates and those who have witnessed his alleged controversial behavior throughout the years.
Diddy’s own footage, which was never previously seen and was shot just days before his September 2024 arrest, also appears in the series.
Diddy began documenting himself while he was being investigated by the federal government after a number of lawsuits against him that contained allegations of sexual misconduct.
Footage from this period is shown in the opening scenes of the documentary, but Netflix ensured to warn viewers before diving into the show.
The streaming service provider stated in a statement that “the following series contains descriptions of domestic and sexual violence that may be disturbing for some viewers.”
It appears the warning was necessary as viewers have already dubbed the show as a “tough” watch. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one wrote: “This diddy documentary is truly something. Tough but very insightful watch. 50 Cent and Netflix put their all into this documentary. #TheReckoning.”
While a second said: “Episode 3 is soo dark like just haunting #TheReckoning.”
Executive producer Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson stated before the documentary’s release that “I’ve been committed to real storytelling for years through G-Unit Film and Television.”
He continued, “I’m proud to have Alexandria Stapleton as the director on the project to bring this significant story to the screen, and I’m grateful to everyone who came forward and trusted us with their stories.”
Director Stapleton remarked about the private footage that was shown throughout the series, saying that it had been obtained legally and with the necessary rights. To protect the filmmaker’s identity, we moved heaven and earth.
“One thing about Sean Combs is that he’s always filming himself, and it’s been an obsession throughout the decades. We also reached out to Sean Combs’ legal team for an interview and comment multiple times, but did not hear back.”
Diddy continues to refute any and all accusations leveled at him.
