Grammy Award-winning rapper 50 Cent has shared his reaction to an upcoming docuseries featuring Justin and Christian Combs, sons of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, set for release in 2026.
Posting the trailer on Instagram, the ‘Many Men’ rapper wrote, “Wow! I want to see this show, I’m not sure this was a good idea.”
The release comes in the wake of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ July 2025 federal conviction on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.
He was sentenced to 50 months in federal prison at the Federal Correctional Institution, Fort Dix, New Jersey, with credit for 13 months already served.
Following the verdict, a four-part Netflix docuseries, Sean Combs: The Reckoning, directed by Alex Stapleton and executive produced by 50 Cent, was released.
While Combs did not participate in the project, the series closely examines his upbringing, rise to fame, and career controversies.
It also revisits long-standing rumours surrounding his alleged connection to Tupac Shakur’s death and touches on accusations of assault and abusive behaviour involving singer Cassie Ventura.
The docuseries features interviews with former associates and industry figures, including Kirk Burrowes, Capricorn Clark, Mark Curry, Aubrey O’Day, Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, Tim “Dawg” Patterson, and several Making the Band contestants.
Some interviewees recount disturbing encounters, while others allege financial exploitation.
Contributors sharing their stories include Joi Dickerson-Neal, Clayton Howard, Roxanne Johnson, and William Lesane, the cousin of Tupac Shakur.
Two anonymous jurors from Combs’ 2025 trial also provide insight. Juror 75 described Combs and Ventura as “two people in love,” while Juror 160 noted, “Domestic violence wasn’t one of the charges.”
Combs’ representatives criticised Netflix, claiming footage was obtained illegally and expressing concern over 50 Cent’s involvement.
“For Netflix to hand his story to someone who has publicly attacked him for decades feels… like a deeply personal affront,” the statement read.
Director Alexandria Stapleton countered, confirming that all footage was legally obtained and that the filmmakers had sought Combs’ participation without success.
Social media reactions to Justin and Christian Combs’ docuseries are mixed.
One Instagram user wrote, “So the actual kids can’t give their point of view? Yet the whole world can profit off their father, it’s wild.”
Another added, “I’m sorry, but his children are biased or willfully ignorant. Either way, I won’t be watching.”
The docuseries promises to spark conversation about legacy, accountability, and the blurred lines between family and fame.
