Sean Combs: The Reckoning
Channel: Netflix South Africa
TX Time: 10h00 (all episodes)
Genre: Documentary Series, Music, True Crime
This documentary series unpacks the shocking allegations behind Sean "Diddy" Combs and his Bad Boy empire, spanning decades of his life and career.
Diddy. Puff Daddy. Love. The public knows the hip-hop icon by many names — but who is the real Sean Combs?
In this four-part documentary by Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, Sean Combs: The Reckoning is an examination of the media mogul, music legend and convicted offender.
Born with an insatiable drive for stardom and a knack for spotting talent, Combs made a quick ascent through the ranks of the music industry with Bad Boy Entertainment and was crucial in bringing hip-hop to the pop masses and launching the careers of dozens of generation-defining artists like The Notorious B.I.G., Mary J. Blige, Jodeci and Danity Kane.
But along the way, and as detailed by his former associates, childhood friends, artists and employees, something darker began to color his ambitions.
Through explosive, never-before-seen materials, including exclusive interviews with those formerly in his orbit, this documentary tells the story of a powerful, enterprising man and the gilded empire he built — and the underworld that lay just beneath its surface.
