You can find 50 Cent in the club, but not chatting with Sean “Diddy” Combs.
As a longtime fan, I’ve been following everything surrounding Sean Combs closely. It’s been over a week since his documentary dropped on Netflix, and I just learned from 50 Cent – Curtis Jackson III – that he hasn’t spoken to Diddy since the news of the federal case came out. It’s really sad to hear, considering their history.
The 50-year-old also mentioned he’s interacted with Sean Combs’ children, including Quincy, 34, Christian, 27, and twins D’Lila and Jessie, 18, with his late ex-partner Kim Porter. He’s also had contact with Justin, 31, with Misa Hylton, Chance, 18, with Sarah Chapman, and Love Sean, 3, with Dana Tran.
50 Cent recently told Us Weekly that he spoke with one of Diddy’s sons. The son and potentially others were initially interested in participating in a documentary, wanting to share their side of the story and ensure it was presented fairly. He didn’t specify which son he spoke with.
TopMob News has contacted Sean Combs’ lawyers for a response to recent statements made by 50 Cent, but they haven’t received one yet.
Just before it launched on December 2nd, Diddy publicly criticized the new documentary series about his longtime competitor.
In a statement to Variety on December 1st, attorneys for Sean Combs called Netflix’s documentary a damaging and dishonest production. They stated that Netflix used footage without permission and that Combs has been collecting his own footage since the age of 19, intending to share his life story in his own way. The attorneys argue that Netflix, and its CEO Ted Sarandos, knew this and that using the footage was both unfair and illegal.
Representatives for Combs described the new show as an effort to profit from ongoing media attention.
The statement argues that if Netflix prioritized truth or Mr. Combs’s legal rights, it wouldn’t be selectively using private footage – especially confidential conversations with his attorneys that were never meant to be public. Furthermore, it asserts that Netflix never obtained the rights to this material, nor did any other third party.
A Netflix representative told TopMob News that Diddy’s statements about the documentary are untrue. They confirmed the footage of Sean “Diddy” Combs before his legal issues was obtained legally and stated the documentary is not intended to be damaging or a form of revenge.
As a longtime fan, I’ve seen 50 Cent consistently defend the sourcing of the footage in that documentary. He’s made it clear he believes everything was obtained legally and, importantly, he’s not sharing how he got it – he’s protecting his sources, and you’ve got to respect that.
The singer of “In da Club” also thinks that Combs will eventually agree with the way the documentary portrays him.
As a longtime fan, I can tell you this documentary really lays everything bare – his whole life story. Puff always cared deeply about how he’d be remembered, and this film doesn’t hold back on anything. It covers his triumphs, his struggles, his influence, and even the complicated parts of his personality – everything is in there. I get the sense he might not agree with every single perspective, but he’ll definitely appreciate how thorough and honest it is. It feels like a truly complete picture of the man.
For a deeper look at the latest chapter of Combs’ legacy, keep reading…
I was in the courtroom on October 3rd, 2025, and it was a tough day. The judge handed down the sentence – 50 months behind bars, which is over four years. On top of that, he’ll be under supervision for five years after he gets out, and he also has to pay a $500,000 fine. It was a significant penalty, to say the least.
I was absolutely glued to the news when he finally spoke in court on October 3rd. It was heartbreaking, honestly, to hear him apologize – especially to Cassie Ventura and ‘Jane’. I mean, it’s been so long coming, and while nothing will truly fix things, hearing him say he was sorry to them… it was a huge moment. I just kept thinking about Cassie and ‘Jane’ while he was talking, hoping it would bring them even a tiny bit of peace.
Combs admitted that experiencing domestic violence will always be a difficult part of his life. He described his own behavior as ‘disgusting, shameful, and sick,’ and explained it stemmed from drug use and a lack of control. He acknowledged he needed help, didn’t receive it, and takes full responsibility for his actions.
He went on to share how the case has impacted him.
Oh my god, listening to him talk… it just breaks my heart. He said he was just trying to do his best, but got completely consumed by everything – his success, his own pride. It led to everything falling apart. He lost it all – his freedom, being a dad to his kids, even being there for his mom! All his businesses, his career… gone. And the worst part, he said it wasn’t just the losses, it was losing himself, his self-respect. He sounded utterly destroyed, like he’d been stripped bare and left with nothing. He actually hates himself right now, and honestly, it’s just so raw and painful to hear. It’s like he’s been completely broken down to the core.
As a lifestyle expert, I’ve been following the legal proceedings closely, and the judge, Arun Subramanian, has set the sentencing date for Combs for October 3rd, 2025. Unfortunately, the request for pre-sentencing release was denied. The judge specifically cited a history of violent behavior as the reason for keeping Combs in custody until that date.
Following the trial, after Sean “Diddy” Combs was acquitted of racketeering and sex trafficking charges involving his former partners, Cassie and “Jane,” but convicted of transporting them for the purpose of prostitution, his attorney released a statement regarding the outcome.
Attorney Douglas Wigdor stated on July 2nd that the legal proceedings began when his client, Cassie Ventura, bravely filed a lawsuit in November 2023. While the jury didn’t find enough evidence to convict Combs of sex trafficking, Ventura’s actions allowed them to find him guilty of transporting someone for the purpose of prostitution. Wigdor emphasized that by sharing her story, Ventura has significantly impacted both the entertainment industry and the pursuit of justice.
Acknowledging the charges Combs denied, Wigdor reiterated, “We firmly stand with and support our client, who demonstrated remarkable bravery during this legal process.”
Wigdor also commended Ventura for her testimony, as she was one of 34 witnesses during the nearly month-long trial involving Combs.
He stated that she demonstrated incredible courage and highlighted the long-standing issue of abuse of power by men, as well as the decades of unchecked misconduct. He emphasized that this case shows how urgently change is needed, and they will keep advocating for survivors.
When Combs learned he was found not guilty on three of the five charges against him, he reportedly dropped to his knees in what appeared to be a prayer, according to NBC News reporters who were present in the courtroom. He had faced a potential life sentence if convicted on all counts.
According to reports, Combs’ family members were in the courtroom and reacted with applause and cheers to the verdict. His lawyers embraced each other, and Combs shared a hug with his attorney, Brian Steel.
After three days of discussion, the jury of twelve reached a decision in the sex trafficking trial against Combs on July 2nd. They found him guilty on two counts of transporting individuals for the purpose of prostitution, involving both a former girlfriend named Ventura and another woman known only as “Jane.”
Sean Combs was acquitted of one charge of conspiracy to commit racketeering and two counts of sex trafficking, despite having previously pleaded not guilty to all accusations.
The jury informed Judge Arun Subramanian they couldn’t agree on the racketeering charge before delivering their final decision, citing strongly held, differing opinions. The judge urged them to keep discussing the case, and they ultimately reached a verdict a few hours later.
In her closing arguments to the jury, prosecutor Christy Slavik stated that Sean “Diddy” Combs used intimidation, force, and control to achieve his goals. She spent nearly five hours presenting her case.
She explained that he was incredibly stubborn and always got his way. He saw his world as his personal domain and expected everyone around him to cater to his needs.
Slavik highlighted two instances of alleged abuse by Combs: a physical assault on his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, in 2016, and a more recent alleged assault in 2024 on a girlfriend who is being referred to as “Jane” throughout the trial.
Although eight years apart, these two events are connected, representing different parts of the same overall story – the story of Sean Combs and the criminal organization he ran with the help of his close associates.
The criminal organization repeatedly fulfilled the defendant’s wishes using a consistent pattern of violence, intimidation, and control, she explained. The defendant believed that keeping people silent and ashamed would hide his crimes, and he felt his celebrity, money, and influence meant the law wouldn’t apply to him.
Slavik claimed that during the trial, Combs relied on a large team of assistants dedicated to fulfilling his every need, bolstering his image, and shielding him from any negative publicity.
The prosecutors asked the court for permission to change some details of their arguments about the attempted arson and kidnapping charges.
Despite still being charged with racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking – including allegations of kidnapping and arson – prosecutors clarified in a letter dated June 24th that they had dropped specific attempted kidnapping and arson charges based on the laws of California and New York, as well as the charge of assisting with sex trafficking.
The government stated it hopes that using simpler language will make the instructions easier to follow and prevent misunderstandings.
Combs told JudgeSubramanian that he will not take the stand during his sex trafficking trial.
The judge made it clear that whether or not the defendant chose to testify, no one – not even the jury – could assume his guilt based on his silence.
Combs admitted he discussed with his team whether or not to testify, but insisted the final decision was entirely his own.
“I’ve thought this through carefully, and this is what I’ve decided,” he told the judge. “It’s my choice, and I stand by it.”
Diddy’s lawyer, Teny Garagos, informed the judge that both sides – the defense and the prosecution – anticipate needing around four hours each to deliver their closing statements.
After several days of testimony from Homeland Security Investigations Special Agent Joseph Cerciello, the prosecution rested its case on June 24th. The defense team for Combs has announced they will not call any witnesses and will instead base their arguments on the evidence already presented.
During his June 23rd testimony, the jury saw explicit videos presented as evidence. News reporters from NBC News, who were present in the courtroom, reported that these videos appeared to be from parties referred to as “freak offs” hosted by Combs.
The agent reported finding 50 explicit videos from 2021 and 2022, but the jury only viewed two of them, using headphones and individual screens.
In voicemails to his former chief of staff, Kristina Khorram, Sean Combs outlined a series of requests he had while staying at a hotel in November 2021. These included asking for more baby oil, which he said he used during times of intense stress.
He told Khorram to have them call him before starting their journey. Then, expressing his disbelief at being released, he added, “Load twenty bottles into the vehicle.”
Khorram also mentioned she was staying at the hotel another day, and let them know the baby oil was just outside the door.
According to text messages, his former employee told him she was setting up an IV drip for him and Jane, which he’d previously used to recover after intense competitions.
She also made sure that there were Plan-B pills, an emergency contraceptive, in his nightstand.
The jury saw text messages between Combs and Ventura where Ventura openly described the emotional and psychological harm she claimed she suffered due to the alleged abuse.
In March 2017, after Combs suggested they take a break from their on-again, off-again relationship (which lasted from 2007 to 2018), Ventura responded that she didn’t want a break. She explained that she didn’t want to be criticized for standing up for herself and felt Combs made her feel unimportant.
In another instance, she further accused her ex of physically assaulting her.
In a letter from May, Ventura wrote that she offered her partner love, but felt betrayed and hurt when he acted out. She described a violent incident where he physically assaulted her, dragging her by the hair. Feeling emotionally and physically devastated, the 30-year-old expressed that the abuse had gone too far and was no longer acceptable, and that witnessing the pain in her own eyes was strangely beautiful.
Brendan Paul, who worked as Sean Combs’ assistant from 2022 to 2024, testified that he bought drugs for Combs several times. These drugs included marijuana, 2C, cocaine, ketamine, and ecstasy.
Paul explained that they would text their drug dealer, who would then come to one of their houses. He said he’d been connected with the dealer through texts or phone calls, and also mentioned being fired from jobs multiple times for things like forgetting a Lululemon fanny pack.
However, Paul vehemently denied being a “drug mule” for the rap mogul.
As a regular follower of the case, I learned that Judge Subramanian had to end court for the day on June 18th because one of the jurors wasn’t feeling well and couldn’t come back. And just so you know, court is also closed tomorrow, June 19th, for the Juneteenth holiday.
The judge announced that a juror is ill and unable to attend court today. They had experienced dizziness and had to leave. Because this juror is a regular member of the jury, the judge stated they won’t be able to continue with the trial today. The juror’s partner informed the court of the situation.
The judge acknowledged it’s unknown if the juror’s sudden vertigo—causing dizziness, nausea, and headaches—will pass quickly or become a lasting problem, and stated they would keep an eye on the situation.
Because of the Juneteenth holiday on June 19th, Judge Subramanian announced the trial will continue on June 20th with a shorter schedule, from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
Just after Judge Subramanian removed Juror No. 6 due to inconsistent statements about where they live, another juror is now potentially facing removal. This juror reportedly had an inappropriate conversation about the case with a past coworker. The judge questioned the juror and asked to examine their phone, according to NBC News.
By the end of the court session on June 16, a decision about whether to dismiss the member hadn’t been reached.
Kanye West showed up at the New York City courthouse on June 13th to support Sean Combs. West was there for about half an hour and briefly visited the waiting area, but didn’t go inside the courtroom itself. The courtroom is reserved for Combs’ family, lawyers, the press, and members of the public who have been waiting in line for hours.
Jane remembered a fight they had after she took a trip to Las Vegas with a fellow rapper and his spouse.
She testified that this behavior escalated to sexual voyeurism. Specifically, she described soliciting Anton, a sex worker they frequently used, and witnessing a group, including Combs, watch him engage in sexual activity with a woman in a hotel room during their trip.
Jane informed Combs’ lawyer, Geragos, that the music executive was angry because he believed she had gone to a sexually explicit event with another man.
On the 21st day of the Combs trial, a prosecutor named Maurene Comey told the court that the prosecution wants to dismiss one of the jurors.
She told Judge Subramanian, just before the jury entered the courtroom, that they were hesitant to submit the letter because it seemed dishonest and raised significant concerns for them.
Defense lawyer Alexandra Shapiro – noting that Juror No. 6 is one of the Black jurors – requested a day or two to prepare a written response and review relevant legal precedents.
As a quick update, the judge, Judge Subramanian, has let us know he’s holding off on making any decisions about how to handle things with the juror until we’ve reached a verdict. He wants to wait and see where we land before figuring out the next steps, which is a really sensible approach, if you ask me!
On June 10th, Jane and Garagos had a heated discussion where Garagos implied the witness was exchanging sexual favors for expensive gifts.
Attorney Mark Geragos reviewed text messages from November 2021 between Jane Doe and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs. The messages revealed that Doe was distressed by Combs having sexual relations with other women. In the texts, she questioned Combs about whether he had given one of these women a Chanel bag after they had sex.
Jane said that she didn’t get a Chanel purse from Combs, telling Garagos that she “got trauma.”
When the attorney asked what a Bottega bag was, she replied, “I’m sure you have one.”
And when Geragos asked how much the item costs, Jane asked, “How much does my body cost?”
Jane was granted a 10-minute break following the exchange.
Jane stated that in approximately 2022, she researched her relationship with Combs and came to believe he enjoyed watching her with other people – a dynamic she identified as “cuckoldry.”
She explained that the research helped her better understand why people enjoyed watching their partners with other men. She was trying to fully explore all the reasons behind this enjoyment.
The witness suggested that Combs’ interest in arranging hotel stays, which closely resembled the private encounters described by Ventura, might stem from Combs exploring his own sexual orientation.
She explained that some individuals might have hidden curiosities they feel too embarrassed to explore personally, and instead live vicariously through another person’s experiences.
Jane stated she’d given the name “Trifecta” to Paul, an escort she and Combs hired several times, because she felt their sexual relationship was as successful as a winning team in basketball.
“I was Kobe Bryant and Paul was Shaq [O’Neil],” she told jurors. “Combs was Michael Jordan.”
She said Paul was a kind person and, when discussing past encounters with sex workers, mentioned she preferred those who felt warm and approachable.
Jane stated that the relationship between Combs and Khorram caused problems in her own romantic relationship with the music executive.
Jane explained that Khorram was constantly with Sean, which created problems in their relationship. She felt Khorram had strong feelings for her, and those feelings affected how Sean behaved towards her.
On June 10th, Judge Subramanian rejected a request for a mistrial from Combs’ lawyers. They had argued that Ventura and her friend, Bryana Bongolan, falsely claimed Combs had dangled Bongolan over a balcony on the 17th floor.
His attorneys claimed the prosecution acted improperly by presenting false testimony, a claim they made in a court filing. This isn’t the first time they’ve raised concerns; a previous request to halt the trial based on similar issues was also rejected.
According to a recent letter, the government presented evidence in court that they either knew was false or should have known was false. This evidence concerned their claim that Mr. Combs dangled Bryana Bongolan off the balcony of Cassie Ventura’s apartment in September 2016. Because of this, the letter argues the court should declare a mistrial to prevent an unfair outcome.
Jane alleged that the rap mogul had beaten her for hours June 2024.
Jane stated that an argument with Combs started because he was seeing a much younger woman – 25 years his junior, she said. This argument escalated, and Jane admitted to calling him a deeply offensive name and physically assaulting him by pushing his head into a marble countertop.
The witness testified that she hid in the bedroom while Sean Combs tried to force the door open, cracking it in the process. She stated that as she attempted to escape, Combs kicked her in the back of her leg, causing her to fall.
She told the prosecutors that he grabbed her in a chokehold, pinning her to the ground and lifting her until she struggled to breathe. She was trying desperately to escape his hold, and had to stand on her tiptoes while struggling.
Oh my god, it’s just… I can’t even. She told everyone she just ran, bolted from the house and spent, like, two whole hours hiding behind a wall, praying he’d just go away, but he didn’t! And then, unbelievably, they went back to his place, and she… she just huddled in the backyard, trying to shield herself while he… while he allegedly attacked her. It’s horrifying! I can’t stop thinking about how scared she must have been.
Jane testified that the fight worsened when Combs supposedly hit her. She told the court he began punching her head and kicking her, repeatedly hitting her while also yelling.
She alleged that he told her that she was “trying to take him away from his kids and his family.”
She testified that she told him, “No, I don’t want that. Please just leave me alone, just go. Please stop.” She said he then grabbed her arm and hair, and began pulling her back toward the house, dragging her by her hair and arm.
Jane reported that after the attack, she had two raised bumps about the size of golf balls on her forehead and a black eye.
Jane stated that Homeland Security Investigations raided her home – which Sean Combs had paid for in March 2023 – as well as several other properties owned by him. She explained that agents arrived at her house, and she immediately contacted Combs’ head of security to inform him of the raid.
In December 2023, Jane claimed a powerful person threatened to share intimate videos of them with the father of her child.
Jane testified that as her relationship with Combs fell apart, he told her he had nothing to lose by making the videos public. She described the situation as a relentless series of pressuring phone calls.
I was so worried when I found out about the texts Jane sent to Khorram – they actually became part of the legal evidence! In those messages, she explained that Combs was threatening to release the video, and she specifically said she felt like she’d been heavily drugged in it. It’s just awful, and I’m glad she documented everything.
She explained she needed space from Combs to heal from the emotional pain he had inflicted.
Jane told the court that Khorram assured her that Combs would not use the footage.
In her testimony, Jane stated that certain claims in Ventura’s November 2023 lawsuit—which was eventually resolved—matched what she herself went through with Combs.
She told the jury, while crying, that she nearly passed out, and might have actually fainted. She explained that three particular pages were deeply upsetting because they directly related to what she was going through.
Jane, a participant in the “hotel nights” events, described the experience as feeling deeply personal, like she was witnessing her own life unfold. This prompted her to reach out to Combs directly through text messages.
After Ventura filed her lawsuit, she wrote, in screenshots presented as evidence, that reading it felt like reliving her own sexual trauma. She described feeling ill, explaining that the lawsuit detailed, almost verbatim, the ‘drug-filled days and nights’ she’d experienced. She accused Ventura of anticipating this outcome and of manipulating her, making her feel unstable.
The messages expressed feelings of disgust and being pressured into repeated sexual acts. The sender felt invalidated and dismissed regarding their trauma, leading to feelings of violation and a belief that they had been sexually exploited.
Combs then called Jane and secretly recorded their conversation, which was later presented as evidence. During the call, he reminded her that they had shared experiences and stated he needed her present at a specific time.
Jane confided in Combs, unaware she was being recorded, that she felt nauseous after reviewing Ventura’s documents.
Jane stated that during her involvement with Combs and male escorts in events called “Hotel Nights,” she frequently used ecstasy. However, on one occasion, she chose to remain drug-free while engaging in sexual activity with three men.
She testified that she had been with several men that night and became sick, vomiting. Sean then entered the room, reassuring her that she would feel better and suggesting they go outside.
Jane said that at the end of the night, she felt “absolutely terrible.”
