50 Cent Triumphs Over Diddy in Bidding War, Sells Documentary to Netflix

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs has been making headlines due to shocking allegations and revelations about his past behaviour. Recently, a hotel CCTV video surfaced, allegedly showing the rapper hitting his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. 

This incident is part of a larger narrative covered in a documentary produced by 50 Cent, which focuses on the founder of Bad Boy Records and the various accusations against him. The documentary, produced by 50 Cent’s G-Unit Film and Television Studios, sparked a bidding war among several platforms, with Netflix ultimately securing the rights to the multi-part series.

According to TMZ, sources familiar with the situation confirmed that Netflix purchased the documentary, which delves into the s*xual abuse allegations against Diddy. 

This acquisition followed the viral video of Cassie Ventura, which led Diddy to post an apology video on Instagram, acknowledging his dark phase during the 2016 incident. Additionally, Diddy is facing another lawsuit from model Crystal McKinney, who accused him of sexual assault.

The rivalry between 50 Cent and Diddy dates back to the early 2000s. In 2006, 50 Cent released a diss track implicating Diddy in the knowledge of Notorious B.I.G. ‘s death. Throughout the years, 50 Cent has consistently voiced his opinions on Diddy’s controversies and has never shied away from trolling him.

50 Cent’s outspokenness extends beyond Diddy’s situation. He has also commented on the high-profile rap battle between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, publicly supporting Drake. He even shared a clip from Family Matters music video, one of Drake’s diss tracks aimed at Kendrick Lamar, on his Instagram.
