Premiering this February, this gripping multi-part series pulls back the curtain on one of the entertainment world’s most enigmatic figures, Sean “Diddy” Combs. Prepare to explore the meteoric rise and devastating unravelling of a music mogul whose legacy is now clouded by allegations that are as shocking as they are unsettling.
This ground-breaking series is the brainchild of Emmy®-nominated Maxine Productions, known for its unflinching storytelling (Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV), and features original reporting in partnership with the Emmy®-winning team at Rolling Stone Films.
