50 Cent to Annihilate Longtime Rival Diddy With Scathing Netflix Documentary

They say history is written by the victors.

If that’s the case, then 50 Cent is declaring himself triumphant in his decades-long feud with rival rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs.

As you’ve no doubt heard by now, Diddy has been arrested on sex trafficking and racketeering charges. The hip hop mogul is currently being held without bail in a Brooklyn detention center.

A tremendous amount of media coverage has been devoted to the scandal and the shockwaves the arrest might soon set off within the music industry.

But while some celebs might be cowering in fear at being implicated, 50 is enjoying a much-deserved “told ya so” moment.

Variety reported today that a docu-series about Diddy’s crimes will soon premiere on Netflix. 50 Cent will serve as executive producer through his G-Unit Film & Television banner.

50 first teased the project back in December.

At that time, Diddy was being sued by four women who accused him of sexual assault, but no criminal charges had been filed.

50, of course, is no stranger to the world of television. In fact, the semi-retired emcee is something of a powerhouse at Starz, where he serves as EP on the many shows that make up the Power franchise.

“This is a story with significant human impact. It is a complex narrative spanning decades, not just the headlines or clips seen so far,” 50 and director Alexandria Stapleton said in a statement issued today.

“We remain steadfast in our commitment to give a voice to the voiceless and to present authentic and nuanced perspectives,” the statement continued.

“While the allegations are disturbing, we urge all to remember that Sean Combs’ story is not the full story of hip-hop and its culture. We aim to ensure that individual actions do not overshadow the culture’s broader contributions.”

Clearly, 50’s goal in all of this is not merely to gloat over a rival’s downfall.

There’s a story here that needs to be told, and it might be years before the saga of Diddy and his alleged crimes plays out in court.

In the meantime, Stapleton and 50 have taken it upon themselves to shed light on the victims’ claims while at the same time exonerating the culture that Diddy was such an integral part of for over 30 years.

While it’s true that Diddy would not have gotten away with so much for so long were it not for his wealth and fame, his alleged crimes should not be seen as a reflection of the hip hop community.

We believe that 50’s intentions are pure, and his track record as a capable producer is well-proven.

No premiere date has been set for the untitled docuseries, which is currently in production.
