00:00:00Things are happening and it's like, I want to fight for my life.
00:00:17I want to fight for, you know, justice, not guilty.
00:00:20I don't want to have a life to be able to live.
00:00:23You know, it's really going to be hard for me to take more hits than I take it, God forbid,
00:00:28get in front of a jury and have a chance.
00:00:31And so I'm having this emergency call because something has to give.
00:00:35We need the core theme to be, you didn't do anything wrong.
00:00:39You know, you didn't do anything wrong on any front.
00:00:42And you've come to New York to face things head on.
00:00:46If anyone's ever paying any attention to what you've actually been doing,
00:00:49you've handled this with complete honor.
00:00:53I don't think it's working.
00:00:56I've listened.
00:00:58I've been a superb client, as you've said.
00:01:01I jumped on the plane. I'm coming to New York.
00:01:03But I'm just like, I'm just running around waiting for a shooter drop.
00:01:11We're losing sight of the big picture, man.
00:01:13It's the middle of September and there's still no indictment.
00:01:16You don't know. Then you have to have a spokesman.
00:01:20You have to have some sort of comms to constantly be pushing that mark.
00:01:24Because you may just be a person that just does, you just may watch CNN.
00:01:28You know what I'm saying?
00:01:29And there's like, there's 9 billion people in the world.
00:01:31And 7 billion of them is on Instagram and TikTok.
00:01:36And so you're at the wrong place looking to see what the people with the possible jurors are thinking.
00:01:43We have to find somebody that'll work with us, whether they're from this country or from another country.
00:01:48It could be somebody that has dealt in the dirtiest of dirtiest, dirty business of media and propaganda.
00:01:58I've seen the media portray me like I'm a gangster.
00:02:02I'm a, or at times I'm a cold individual.
00:02:07I'm just a shrewd businessman, which is just not the case.
00:02:12I'm a dreamer. I love closing my eyes and dreaming.
00:02:18I don't, I don't really deal with reality.
00:02:21You know, I think that you're a great guy, a great role model.
00:02:23Diddy P Papa, Papa, Papa Diddy Pop.
00:02:26I'm sorry. I don't know what you're calling yourself these days.
00:02:28American dream come true. Thank you, America.
00:02:31It's like we have a movie and you're speaking this language.
00:02:35And you know what I'm saying? We need subtitles.
00:02:37And we're not providing the audience with subtitles.
00:02:39And I invited you to this movie and you in this thing.
00:02:42You don't know what's going on.
00:02:43You just see, you just see the images, you know, quickly.
00:02:52Now it has a whole life of its own.
00:02:55The Department of Homeland Security conducting a raid at a house connected to Sean.
00:03:00Breaking news. Another woman is accusing Sean Diddy Holmes of sexual assault.
00:03:03Trafficking forced labor, kidnapping.
00:03:05The fourth lawsuit in the last movie.
00:03:07The fifth lawsuit. The seventh lawsuit.
00:03:09There are now more than a dozen civil people.
00:03:10The conduct that does indeed span two decades.
00:03:12I'm taking eight nuclear bombs, you know what I'm saying?
00:03:16Straight to the head.
00:03:18And I'm tired of going back and forth with y'all, with the lawyers.
00:03:21That's just not true.
00:03:22Okay, so, so, so, so, so, so, so.
00:03:25No, no, no, no, no, no. Let me tell you something.
00:03:28Let me say this.
00:03:29I'm not, I'm not, I'm not a referee.
00:03:32So I'm going to get off the phone right now.
00:03:33Listen to me.
00:03:34I'm going to get off the phone right now.
00:03:36And I am going to let you professionals look at the situation and come back to me with a solution.
00:03:42No matter what, no matter what nobody said.
00:03:45Let's, let's just here and there.
00:03:46Y'all are not working together the right way.
00:03:48We're losing.
00:03:49Okay.
00:04:19Yeah, just get little cutaways of them, like, looking from the, you know what I'm saying?
00:04:36That's what I'm saying.
00:04:49All of us got to go to the maker, and we will be held accountable for the things we did and we didn't do.
00:05:02Sean Combs is an asshole.
00:05:06He is the motherfucker you're not going to like, and you're not going to get the fuck along with if he doesn't get his way.
00:05:12If you don't ever disrespect nobody to fuck.
00:05:14He's down with me, motherfucker.
00:05:15He quickly became my hero.
00:05:17It's whatever I want, I'm going to get it.
00:05:19Whatever I want, I have to get it.
00:05:23If y'all had a fucking chance to meet this guy.
00:05:26Yes!
00:05:27You would be like, this nigga's energy is everything.
00:05:30I got to get up and go.
00:05:31I got to get up and do it.
00:05:34What's next?
00:05:35What's next?
00:05:36I got to get it.
00:05:36I'm not going to stay fucking down.
00:05:39He was presenting this freedom that black people hadn't had.
00:05:45Like, we hadn't experienced a black man being able to say, I don't want that.
00:05:49I don't want no problems with your clawing.
00:05:51Hey, yo, dog, what are you talking about?
00:05:52You telling me, like, I'm on some bullshit?
00:05:54I ain't on no bullshit with you.
00:05:56So when I first met him, he quickly became the guy I wanted to be like.
00:06:00When you're a leader in that way, it's admirable until you get to the point where you want
00:06:08to control everyone around you.
00:06:11He got to that point.
00:06:14What y'all want to do?
00:06:16Want to be ballers?
00:06:17Shot callers?
00:06:18Brawlers?
00:06:19It's like Scarface, the movie.
00:06:21I want the world and everything that's in it.
00:06:24But you got everything.
00:06:25Hey, yo, New York, we fucking did it!
00:06:29Harlem, we did it, Montana, we did it!
00:06:32It was a mantra that Sean had.
00:06:36Nobody's going to be bigger than me.
00:06:38Sean is the 1% of the 1% of the 1%.
00:06:40We'll never see a Sean in my lifetime again.
00:06:43Ever.
00:06:44It was like, the more money he got, the more power he got, the more power he got, the more
00:06:51money he got.
00:06:53And he always felt like money can get him out of everything.
00:06:57I do feel it's important that we let the public know, from the juror's standpoint, just kind
00:07:03of how we, um, reached the verdict.
00:07:09It's not everything that the media has put it out to be.
00:07:13You want to put stuff in my fanny pack, King?
00:07:16He's creating a narrative always.
00:07:22He is the best storyteller in hip-hop.
00:07:27He thinks he's black Superman.
00:07:28I can do what I want.
00:07:29You can't go on for long in life doing the things that he was doing before something
00:07:35eventually happens.
00:07:39You can't continue to keep hurting people and nothing ever happens.
00:07:47It's just a matter of time.
00:07:54Is it good to be back in New York?
00:07:57It's always good to be back.
00:07:58Let's go.
00:07:59Once upon a time, not long ago, when people wore pajamas and lived life slow.
00:08:05Willows were stern and justice stood.
00:08:07And people were behaving like they ought to good.
00:08:09How you chasing the kids on here?
00:08:11All right, bro.
00:08:14They lived a little boy who was misled by another little boy, and this is what he said.
00:08:19Me and you, man, we're going to make some cash.
00:08:21Robbing old folks and making the dance.
00:08:23I was there from the very beginning with the invention of Sean Combs.
00:08:32I co-founded Bad Boy with Sean.
00:08:38I was dazzled by his ideas and his unique talent.
00:08:44But he was a very different Sean Combs back then.
00:08:49Sean Combs was 19 when he dropped out of Howard University.
00:08:56He wanted to be in the flashy, swaggy music industry.
00:09:01He started off dancing, wanting to be in videos, wanting to be a pop culture mover and shaker at a time where things were changing.
00:09:21Hip-hop was evolving.
00:09:25Like it or not, rap is here to stay.
00:09:29It has become part of mainstream commerce.
00:09:33It was just explosive.
00:09:36Run DMC, Chaos One, Public Enemy, Rock Henry.
00:09:41The late 80s, it was fantastic.
00:09:45There were a lot of independent labels that gave birth to hip-hop in the way that we know it today.
00:09:54What is this new music?
00:10:01Like Uptown Records.
00:10:03Grab a hold of yourself and check this tempo.
00:10:05Remember these lives?
00:10:07Heavy D sets of the overweight place.
00:10:09Heavy D was the biggest rapper signed to Uptown.
00:10:13Excuse me.
00:10:13We got Heavy D in the house with us today.
00:10:15Thanks for coming down.
00:10:17You can be with the hottest cats in the hood.
00:10:18You can rock Heavy D.
00:10:19You want your grandmother in the car.
00:10:20You ain't got to reach for the radio and turn it off.
00:10:23We call him the official mayor of Money Earned at Mount Vernon.
00:10:28Money Earned at Mount Vernon.
00:10:30Vernon.
00:10:33Mount Vernon is in Westchester County.
00:10:37The first city outside of the Bronx.
00:10:41Heavy D put that area on the map.
00:10:43Heavy D and the boys.
00:10:46And his influence reached all the young people in the neighborhood, including the young Sean
00:10:53Combs, who was at Mount St. Michael High School, a Catholic private school.
00:11:00He would knock on Heavy D's door every day to see if Heavy would take him to meet Andre Harrell.
00:11:11Andre was the champagne of rap.
00:11:15And he took the streets to Wall Street.
00:11:19The only entrance into hip-hop at that point was Andre Harrell and Russell Simmons.
00:11:25Into the corporate hip-hop world.
00:11:28Into the money.
00:11:30Sean had impressed Andre enough to give him an internship.
00:11:34And that was the beginning.
00:11:35I worked with Sean as an intern at Uptown.
00:11:42I'm a picture, I'm a blade out for you.
00:11:44When you thought of Uptown records, you thought of Heavy D, and I'll be sure.
00:11:48I was the first number one artist on the Billboard charts on Uptown.
00:12:00And the first platinum artist on the Uptown label.
00:12:05He was a GQ nigga, you know.
00:12:06He was a real Penny Lopez type.
00:12:10He was one of them fly light-skinned niggas.
00:12:12And girls loved him.
00:12:13He's ours so much!
00:12:15Al was dating Kim.
00:12:20Kim Porter.
00:12:23Kim is at the receptionist's desk at Uptown.
00:12:26You get out the elevator, first person you see is Kim.
00:12:31And it was a beautiful sight.
00:12:33Everybody said that, you know what I mean?
00:12:35But when Sean saw Kim,
00:12:38it was different.
00:12:41And now Sean's always at the receptionist's desk,
00:12:44begging Kim for something.
00:12:47A date, a kiss.
00:12:49He put it all on the table for Kim.
00:12:53It was weird.
00:12:54It was weird in the air,
00:12:55because everyone knew this was Al's girl.
00:12:59Al is hot as fish grease right now.
00:13:01Hi, this is Al B. Shore.
00:13:03Here's my exclusive number.
00:13:05$2 for the first minute,
00:13:0645 cents for each additional minute.
00:13:08And Sean was not really, like, the catch.
00:13:14He didn't drink alcohol.
00:13:16He forbade marijuana.
00:13:17He did not like drugs.
00:13:19He had the Gumby,
00:13:20and he looked like a scholastic dweeb.
00:13:24But Sean was so determined.
00:13:28Yo, I bet you I could get Kim.
00:13:29And he was like, nah, no way.
00:13:32Your weight ain't even up enough yet.
00:13:34But when Sean wants something,
00:13:36he's going to get it.
00:13:38It might be a couple of years from now.
00:13:40But sooner or later,
00:13:42he's going to get it.
00:13:45Andre Harrell,
00:13:46Heavy D,
00:13:48Al B. Shore,
00:13:48they had all the money
00:13:50and all the power,
00:13:50and I was like,
00:13:51I don't know what they did,
00:13:52but that's what I want to do.
00:13:55I got to Uptown
00:13:57a few months after Sean did,
00:14:00and I saw him being built
00:14:02into cool.
00:14:04We had to go through
00:14:05the Uptown flavor camp.
00:14:10I learned a lot quickly.
00:14:13Being in front of Willie Burgers
00:14:14on the hump 45th and A4,
00:14:16being at the rooftop.
00:14:17Let's get it going.
00:14:17Rooftop!
00:14:18The fashion,
00:14:19the walk,
00:14:20the talk,
00:14:21the attitude,
00:14:22the drive,
00:14:23the determination.
00:14:25I was ready to do
00:14:26whatever it took to win.
00:14:28The young Sean Combs
00:14:30during that time,
00:14:31he was so tenacious.
00:14:32You would ask him
00:14:33to turn Wednesday
00:14:34into Tuesday.
00:14:36He would set about doing it.
00:14:39First task we had given him
00:14:40was just go get a tape
00:14:4210 blocks away.
00:14:44He came back in two minutes
00:14:45to something crazy.
00:14:46I remember I was on the phone,
00:14:47and I looked up
00:14:48when he came back.
00:14:48I was like,
00:14:49how'd you get there so fast?
00:14:51And he said,
00:14:51I ran there and back.
00:14:54Right there and there,
00:14:55I said,
00:14:55oh, okay.
00:14:58I did have known then
00:15:00that that was never going to stop,
00:15:02to run there and run back.
00:15:03He ingratiated himself to Andre
00:15:06and made himself very valuable.
00:15:09Something that you don't want
00:15:11to do without.
00:15:11Like,
00:15:12who's going to get my clothes?
00:15:13Who's going to armor on my tire?
00:15:15This is so convenient.
00:15:17Then they lived together.
00:15:18I bought the first million dollar house.
00:15:22Funny,
00:15:22that weekend,
00:15:23just before I moved in,
00:15:24he had a mysterious fight
00:15:26with his mother,
00:15:27and he said,
00:15:27I can't go home.
00:15:29I got to stay here with you.
00:15:30Puck moved in before I did.
00:15:35Andre is taking him under
00:15:36like a son.
00:15:38Andre is the very first patriarch
00:15:40he connected with.
00:15:41Sean grew up with the illusion
00:15:44of what masculinity looks like.
00:15:49My first encounter with Sean,
00:15:50I remember it like yesterday.
00:15:54My family,
00:15:55we rented the first floor
00:15:57of Sean's house.
00:15:59I was my mom and dad's only child,
00:16:01so now Sean has somebody
00:16:02to brother up with.
00:16:05We experienced a lot of firsts together.
00:16:08I taught him how to ride a bike.
00:16:12It was the best thing in my life
00:16:14to let go of the bike
00:16:15and him start riding.
00:16:17We fit so well.
00:16:19Sean was another misfit,
00:16:20just like me.
00:16:22But the difference in my household,
00:16:25my dad taught me right from wrong.
00:16:28No, Sean,
00:16:29Sean didn't have that.
00:16:31Ladies and gentlemen,
00:16:32I would like to introduce
00:16:33my mother, Janice Combs.
00:16:34What were the primary jobs
00:16:42that you did
00:16:42to support your family?
00:16:44I did so many jobs
00:16:46at one time.
00:16:47I worked at
00:16:48the United Civil Policy.
00:16:50I worked at
00:16:51the Board of Ed
00:16:53in Westchester County.
00:16:54I drived a school bus.
00:16:56I worked in
00:16:56a baby's boutique shop.
00:16:59And he never knew this.
00:17:00I worked in
00:17:01an after-hours spot, too.
00:17:02I had to come clean.
00:17:06I needed to come clean.
00:17:09Okay, now.
00:17:13Okay.
00:17:14I made more money
00:17:15because the men thought
00:17:16I was very glamorous
00:17:17and I used to pour liquor.
00:17:18And they'd give me big tips.
00:17:21In Sean's house,
00:17:23there was Janice
00:17:23and there was Sean.
00:17:26My father's name
00:17:27is Melvin Combs.
00:17:29I didn't get a chance
00:17:30to get to know him.
00:17:30I was too young.
00:17:32My father was out.
00:17:33His brain was blown out
00:17:34like on Central Park West.
00:17:36I did the research.
00:17:38They said
00:17:39my mother had brought me
00:17:40to the funeral
00:17:42on a full-length chinchilla.
00:17:46It was like a sigh of relief,
00:17:47you know what I'm saying?
00:17:48Because I finally
00:17:49knew that what I was feeling
00:17:50was true,
00:17:51you know what I'm saying?
00:17:51That I was the son
00:17:52of a hustler,
00:17:53a gangster.
00:17:55Melvin's presence was there.
00:17:57His money was there.
00:17:58And I understood that Melvin
00:18:01made a lot of things possible.
00:18:04But Sean's mom
00:18:06was his everything.
00:18:08If you look at
00:18:10some of the early pictures
00:18:11that Janice has of Sean,
00:18:14she was always
00:18:15making him into something.
00:18:17the hats,
00:18:21fur coats.
00:18:23I think she tried to
00:18:25overcompensate
00:18:26for the father being gone
00:18:28by making him
00:18:30into
00:18:31this dandy.
00:18:32Everything associated
00:18:35with Sean
00:18:36was Harlem.
00:18:39Whoever was flying Harlem,
00:18:40that's what he was
00:18:41as a child.
00:18:43Janice,
00:18:44she'd always be in Harlem.
00:18:46And there were times
00:18:46where she'd bring us.
00:18:51Here we are
00:18:52in this brand new Cadillac
00:18:53because that's all
00:18:54Janice drove.
00:18:56She's making stops
00:18:57here and there.
00:18:59You know,
00:18:59we knew the rule,
00:19:00the drill.
00:19:00Just sit there,
00:19:01I'll be right back.
00:19:02She ain't turn the car off.
00:19:04Nobody took the car.
00:19:06Mm-hmm.
00:19:07Nah.
00:19:08So you knew
00:19:08there was a different vibe
00:19:09going on with this family.
00:19:12In his household,
00:19:14the groove was
00:19:16a little different.
00:19:18A lot of Donna Summer playing.
00:19:20And then we had
00:19:21these movies we'd watch.
00:19:23He's got to be number one.
00:19:25This genre of films
00:19:26called black exploitation.
00:19:28Superdude.
00:19:29You had Superfly.
00:19:31Superfly.
00:19:32You had the Mac.
00:19:33When you got nothing,
00:19:35you want everything,
00:19:36you got a gift
00:19:36to be the Mac.
00:19:39Their parts
00:19:40were hustler parts.
00:19:44In Sean's household,
00:19:46you start to see
00:19:47all the stuff
00:19:48that you saw
00:19:49in the movies.
00:19:50Janice knew
00:19:53who had to throw a party
00:19:54and the parties were packed.
00:19:57You got ladies
00:19:58that look like they're
00:19:59straight out of a Jet magazine.
00:20:01Some brothers up there,
00:20:03you know,
00:20:03if you want to call them
00:20:04pimps, you can.
00:20:05If you want to call them
00:20:06hustlers, you can.
00:20:07You got a member
00:20:08of the New York Knicks
00:20:09or two.
00:20:14There was a stage
00:20:15in her living room.
00:20:16Literally a stage.
00:20:18And that's where
00:20:19we used to have to go
00:20:20and dance.
00:20:22And everybody's
00:20:23calling you baby
00:20:24and everybody's saying
00:20:25do that dance.
00:20:26And all of this stuff
00:20:33he's taken in.
00:20:40So from the movie screen
00:20:41to the home screen,
00:20:43these are the makings
00:20:44of Sean Combs.
00:20:48Now mind you,
00:20:49as a child,
00:20:49Sean was goofy.
00:20:51Kids would pick on him
00:20:52a lot around the block.
00:20:55And he didn't know
00:20:56how to defend himself.
00:20:58Sean was a prince.
00:21:00And Janice,
00:21:01she didn't want
00:21:02no princess.
00:21:04She held back nothing.
00:21:06You've said
00:21:07I would be 12 years old
00:21:08and sometimes I'd be out
00:21:10until 3, 4 in the morning.
00:21:11James, James,
00:21:12we don't have to get
00:21:12into that right now.
00:21:16Ma'am?
00:21:17Got a lot of beatings too.
00:21:20His beatings
00:21:21made me scared.
00:21:24Right?
00:21:26I got beatings now.
00:21:29But when he got his beatings,
00:21:31it wasn't no...
00:21:32It wasn't a choking thing.
00:21:35Nah.
00:21:38Damn, I hate thinking
00:21:39about that, man.
00:21:40My mother was, I guess,
00:21:45raising me for the real world.
00:21:47She was always told me
00:21:48if somebody hit me,
00:21:49make sure I hit them back harder.
00:21:50Make sure they never hit me again.
00:21:52Make sure I fucked them up.
00:21:54You know how you hear
00:21:56your mom's voice
00:21:57in your ear?
00:21:59Boy?
00:22:00You better...
00:22:02Boy?
00:22:05Sean started fighting.
00:22:06He started stepping up.
00:22:07But Sean don't fight like this.
00:22:11Sean's gonna bite you.
00:22:13He's gonna eat your ear off.
00:22:14He's gonna cut your neck open
00:22:16with his mouth.
00:22:18He's not losing.
00:22:19I know people
00:22:24are shaped by pain
00:22:26as well as by love.
00:22:29And if it was more pain
00:22:30than love,
00:22:32watch out.
00:22:35There's gonna be pain
00:22:36that you're gonna give others
00:22:38because you're responding
00:22:40to that pain
00:22:41that you just can't see
00:22:42the cut out of you.
00:22:56I didn't know much about him.
00:22:58I know that he had
00:22:59a big ego.
00:23:00I met him
00:23:04around 89, 90.
00:23:07My job was to promote
00:23:08music videos.
00:23:10And Puffy,
00:23:11he was always doing
00:23:11the party promotions
00:23:12so he's always like
00:23:13handing out the flyers.
00:23:16At the time,
00:23:16I was working on Andre Harrell.
00:23:18He wasn't paying me enough
00:23:19so I had to promote
00:23:20parties on the side
00:23:20which was all good.
00:23:21You know what I'm saying?
00:23:23Daddy's house.
00:23:24He was savvy enough
00:23:25to promote parties.
00:23:27They were the most successful
00:23:28parties at that time.
00:23:29but they were all
00:23:31about promoting himself.
00:23:33One of the brothers
00:23:33that put the party together,
00:23:35my man,
00:23:36Puffy's daddy.
00:23:37Really it was no problem
00:23:38because all my black
00:23:38brothers and sisters
00:23:39came together
00:23:40like my man Dougie Fred.
00:23:41All the beautiful women
00:23:42out here,
00:23:42we came together
00:23:43just to have a good time.
00:23:44I went to a party
00:23:46for a good friend.
00:23:51It was getting very late.
00:23:53Puffy is like,
00:23:54oh, you know,
00:23:55I'm having an after party.
00:23:56at Andre Harrell's house.
00:24:01Andre Harrell wasn't there.
00:24:03He was out of town.
00:24:08People were tracking mud
00:24:10through the house
00:24:10and I remember
00:24:11at the end of the night
00:24:12I was helping
00:24:13clean up the mud.
00:24:14Puffy is like very polite,
00:24:18you know,
00:24:18and thanking me
00:24:19for helping him
00:24:20and he asked me,
00:24:22oh, wow,
00:24:23I just got this call,
00:24:23you know,
00:24:24someone,
00:24:24this girl backed out
00:24:25of this music video,
00:24:27you know,
00:24:27can you do it?
00:24:28And I was like,
00:24:30I don't do music videos
00:24:31but this party
00:24:34was in New Jersey
00:24:35and I needed a ride
00:24:37back to Manhattan
00:24:38so I went along
00:24:41and I never forget
00:24:45I had the same clothes on
00:24:47that I had
00:24:48from the night before.
00:24:50The music video
00:24:51was called
00:24:52Straight from the Soul
00:24:54by Finesse and Sinquist.
00:24:57The whole premise
00:24:59was for me
00:25:00to jump out the car
00:25:01and go with these girls
00:25:02and get away
00:25:03from the pimp guy.
00:25:04Nice clothes in a car
00:25:06doesn't make you a star
00:25:07but you can't talk positive
00:25:08and do the opposite
00:25:09cause then you're labeled
00:25:10as a fool
00:25:11a hypocrite
00:25:12You can't be righteous
00:25:13so a party can flip
00:25:14Sniff a sword
00:25:15drink and drive
00:25:15and have your sister strip
00:25:16You know what that looks like
00:25:17to your people?
00:25:18A bacon scrape
00:25:19Dying sisters
00:25:20don't want to look
00:25:20you in your face
00:25:21Wanting to be a pimp brother?
00:25:23Your heart ain't that cold
00:25:24And this is straight
00:25:25from the soul
00:25:26Was there ever
00:25:34a time that Sean Combs
00:25:36sexually assaulted you?
00:25:40Yes
00:25:41Someone called me up
00:25:45and told me that
00:25:46he said
00:25:47you know
00:25:47he has
00:25:48you know
00:25:48video
00:25:48and I was like
00:25:51what?
00:25:52And that's when he
00:25:53described it
00:25:56and explained it
00:25:57I just want to say this
00:26:18this thing
00:26:20was incredibly
00:26:21devastating
00:26:22to my family
00:26:23my mother
00:26:25she's a social worker
00:26:27we don't have money
00:26:28the thing
00:26:31that we had
00:26:36was our pride
00:26:38we carried ourselves well
00:26:43we were pretty
00:26:45we were intelligent
00:26:46this is the basis
00:26:48of what
00:26:50I had
00:26:51self-respect
00:26:53my mother wrote
00:26:55a letter
00:26:56to Combs
00:26:57parents
00:26:58I just found this
00:27:02recently
00:27:03can I read it?
00:27:10Dear Mr. and Mrs. Combs
00:27:12I'm writing you
00:27:15to inform you
00:27:17of something
00:27:19that your son
00:27:20did to my daughter
00:27:22one weekend
00:27:24while visiting my daughter
00:27:26I awoke to her
00:27:27screaming in the middle
00:27:28of the night
00:27:29she told me
00:27:31that she was
00:27:32dreaming
00:27:33about Puffy
00:27:34I asked her
00:27:37why she was
00:27:39screaming
00:27:39and who is
00:27:40this Puffy person
00:27:41that he would
00:27:42cause her
00:27:43to have nightmares
00:27:44I was shocked
00:27:46and mortified
00:27:47to hear her story
00:27:48she told me
00:27:51that several people
00:27:52have come to her
00:27:53to inform her
00:27:55that your son
00:27:56has made
00:27:57an obscene

00:28:12tapes
00:28:12at parties
00:28:13on large
00:28:14screen televisions
00:28:15I realize
00:28:19that this
00:28:20may be hard
00:28:20for you to believe
00:28:21but if I hadn't
00:28:23heard this story
00:28:23from my daughter's
00:28:24own mouth
00:28:25and looked
00:28:26into her eyes
00:28:27I would have
00:28:28scarcely believed
00:28:29that any individual
00:28:31would compromise
00:28:33another person's
00:28:35dignity
00:28:35in this manner
00:28:36I approached

00:30:24with a certain
00:30:25amount of jealousy
00:30:25or envy

00:30:44I did
00:30:45I avoided him
00:30:48for a very long
00:30:49time
00:30:49I ran into him
00:30:51one day
00:30:52he came to me
00:30:55he got on
00:30:57his knees
00:30:57and swore
00:30:59he did not
00:31:00do this thing
00:31:01to me
00:31:01and denied it
00:31:04and that is
00:31:11the very last
00:31:11time I talked
00:31:12to him
00:31:12when I think
00:31:19back
00:31:19in terms
00:31:20of his
00:31:20rise
00:31:21it is
00:31:24the most
00:31:25helpless
00:31:26feeling
00:31:27I was
00:31:29always
00:31:30nauseous
00:31:30when I saw
00:31:31his image
00:31:31the one
00:31:35image
00:31:35in Times Square
00:31:37where he's
00:31:38holding his
00:31:39fist up
00:31:39when I saw
00:31:43it
00:31:43I vomited
00:31:44right there
00:31:45on the street
00:31:46you are really
00:31:49raising your hand
00:31:50victory
00:31:50and I'm living
00:31:51in trauma
00:31:52and defeat
00:31:52from the
00:32:10legal travel
00:32:10for Sean
00:32:11Diddy
00:32:11another new
00:32:12lawsuit
00:32:13of sexual assault, sex trafficking, and drugging underage girls.
00:32:17Federal prosecutors in New York have interviewed numerous women who allege
00:32:20Rome to... This is at least the 10th civil lawsuit filed against Sean Diddy Combs' alleged sex trafficking.
00:32:26Let's take the blood, man. What the fuck else are you on?
00:32:30I don't know.
00:32:33What's a bunch of silly bullshit?
00:32:34Just silly bullshit. Noise.
00:32:37No sense. No sense.
00:32:39But it's like the legal system is doing it now. Because, like, legally, we gotta...
00:32:45It's like, I gotta spend money to go and get rid of this bullshit.
00:32:51Oh, yeah. Ain't got nothing left.
00:32:55Got nothing left going on.
00:32:59They ain't breaking me, though.
00:33:01How are you, boss? If you don't mind, you want a picture, please?
00:33:04I'm not good with the camera, so I'm gonna try.
00:33:08Nice to meet you, boss.
00:33:09Nice to meet you, boss.
00:33:10Nice to meet you, boss.
00:33:11Nice to meet you, boss.
00:33:12Nice to meet you, boss.
00:33:13Nice to meet you, boss.
00:33:14Y'all can hop in. As a group. As a group. As a group.
00:33:18Sean was destined to be famous.
00:33:22Okay.
00:33:23One more, one more.
00:33:24Yeah.
00:33:25One more, one more.
00:33:26I was confused about that.
00:33:27I didn't see him for me coming. I swear I didn't see that coming.
00:33:30I'm 19, and I always like seeing people entertained.
00:33:37And I thought, you know, over the holidays, I just wanted to throw a celebrity basketball game in Harlem.
00:33:43I was at the game. I was on the floor. All of us was there. Every rapper in New York, right?
00:33:52Your MTV Raps came.
00:33:54I'm at City College in the heart of New York City for the Puff Daddy Heavy D first all-time celebrity all-star classic.
00:34:01That was one of the biggest basketball games. If that would have turned out correctly, it would have went down in history.
00:34:11There were lines and lines around the campus to get in.
00:34:16There's no more room, but everyone still wants to come.
00:34:22We opened up the doors, everybody saw us flowing through, but then thousands more come.
00:34:28There was this thing in hip-hop called bum-rushing the door.
00:34:43People don't have a ticket when they hear something sold out.
00:34:45They say, fuck it, we got to still get in. We're going to bum-rush the door.
00:34:50When they got to the bottom of the stairs, the doors didn't go out that way.
00:34:54They only came in. So people were stuck.
00:34:58They were just crushing people down at the bottom of the stairs.
00:35:04We were on the court, warming up the play.
00:35:06And then Dougie first grabbed the mic and said, there's people that are dead.
00:35:09Whether you need a regular star, or whether you need the most regular person in here, you need to leave.
00:35:25And it's over.
00:35:26Sean over-promoted, over-hyped. And that led to a crowd.
00:35:40It was just like, oh shit, how did this happen so quick?
00:35:45How would people want to explain it?
00:35:48We need a lot of help here. There's a lot of people hurt and aren't breathing.
00:35:51Not breathing?
00:35:52Yes. We, I mean, we have a f***ing emergency over here.
00:35:55The death toll from last week's stampede at a New York charity basketball game has risen to nine.
00:36:05Never's getting trampled.
00:36:06Awful money. $12, man.
00:36:07What do you mean $12?
00:36:08Cost $12 for a ticket.
00:36:09One of the unanswered questions remains who's to blame for the stampede that killed nine people.
00:36:11Throughout the newspaper headlines,
00:36:12there's a lot of people who had dead in the gymnasium.
00:36:13The death toll from last week's stampede at a New York charity basketball game has risen to nine.
00:36:16The death toll from last week's stampede at a New York charity basketball game has risen to nine.
00:36:20Never's getting trampled.
00:36:21Awful money. $12, man.
00:36:22What do you mean $12?
00:36:23Cost $12 for a ticket.
00:36:24One of the unanswered questions remains who's to blame for the stampede that killed nine people.
00:36:37The newspaper headlines throughout the confusion, the finger pointing who's responsible.
00:36:44Sean Young in real time carried the weight of all of that.
00:36:51My dream for this evening was to bring a positive program to my people, to people of my age and to people in my community.
00:37:00Whatever must be done must be done to ensure that this never, ever, ever happens again.
00:37:06It was the biggest news ever.
00:37:09That's how he got super famous, was that game and those deaths.
00:37:15That's the beginning of Puff Daddy.
00:37:18That's really how I started to become famous, was through a tragedy.
00:37:25He was holed up in a hotel on the east side, him and his mother.
00:37:34He didn't know what was going to happen.
00:37:37And I saw Janice question Sean.
00:37:40He's going into this music business thing.
00:37:43He just left school.
00:37:45And now this extreme tragedy has occurred.
00:37:48She's like, did he make the right decision?
00:37:52And I saw him put his hands on her, call her a bitch and slapped her.
00:38:02He's not looking back.
00:38:07Sean Puff Daddy Combs and sponsors claim no responsibility in the tragic chain of events that claim nine lives and injured...
00:38:19The brass that afforded Uptown its distribution money wanted Sean out.
00:38:26I saw Andre fight and fight to keep Sean in.
00:38:32And he did.
00:38:33Andre Harrell, Puff Daddy, he's passing on to I guess his son.
00:38:37Protégé.
00:38:38Protégé.
00:38:39Yes, yes.
00:38:40Puffy.
00:38:41Tell me a little bit about this man and why you like working with him.
00:38:44Because, you know, he's not intimidated by youth.
00:38:46You know what I'm saying?
00:38:47He knows the importance of leaving the legacy behind.
00:38:49Because we need more adults out there that's going to teach the young such as myself.
00:38:54I took Andre Harrell out to lunch and I said, can I get a chance to maybe do A&R?
00:39:00The A&R is artists and repertoire.
00:39:02That's the guy that works with the record company that puts the records together and works with the artists.
00:39:07I said, give me a chance.
00:39:09You know, you're making music for young people.
00:39:12I'm young and, you know, who better to make the music than me?
00:39:17We had a group back in the day.
00:39:20They drove up to New York unannounced to meet Andre Harrell.
00:39:24When we make love.
00:39:27Jodeci.
00:39:28It's like a dream.
00:39:31They sing for Andre.
00:39:32Andre loves it.
00:39:33Immediately that becomes Puff's first responsibility.
00:39:36Nigga, go make Jodeci.
00:39:38What's in the future of Jodeci?
00:39:40Hopefully to make hits, hits, hits.
00:39:43Andre put his trust with Shawn as opposed to the artists.
00:39:48He told us, I don't care who the artist is, you're more important than them.
00:39:55The artists don't work without you.
00:39:57What would be the ideal musical setting for y'all?
00:40:00I guess in 400 from like millions of people, you know.
00:40:03You have to be able to control everything.
00:40:06I basically style and come up with the images and design most of the clothing for all of the artists.
00:40:12It was him that put Jodeci in the pants baggy, sagging at the bottom, the boots not lacing it up.
00:40:20He is able to sponge from the community and the culture and package it.
00:40:26And in the studio, he did the same thing.
00:40:31Shawn wasn't a producer where he can tell you, you need a C here, a C note or this is an F.
00:40:38But he did have a good ear for what could be a hit.
00:40:42Let me give you an example.
00:40:44At the rooftop in Harlem, the DJ Brucie B would mix acapellas from R&B songs with hard hip-hop beats.
00:40:58And it drove the kids crazy at the clubs.
00:41:02That's what Shawn did with Jodeci on those remixes.
00:41:06It was very minimal. It was very hard beat and snare, no melody.
00:41:12Come and talk to me, baby. I really wanna meet you.
00:41:17Jodeci's record started climbing the charts.
00:41:20Here we go! Here we go, Jodeci, yo!
00:41:23Shawn turned that into the blueprint for his special brand of A&R.
00:41:28And then the next artist to benefit from that was Mary J. Blige.
00:41:32Hey, Mary's pop, pick up the phone, nigga. Hey, Mary, it's pop.
00:41:37Mary's What's the 411 was out the box.
00:41:40Then tomorrow you gotta, um, you gotta do this video shoot.
00:41:43The hat pulled out, the mysteriousness.
00:41:46It had a little bit of a darkness and moodiness to it as well.
00:41:51All of that was groundbreaking.
00:41:53Real love.
00:41:55He launched a female artist in a male-dominated hip-hop barrel.
00:42:00What's up, Apollo?
00:42:03Who became an instant success.
00:42:05And that created hip-hop soul.
00:42:08Mary became the owner of that sound.
00:42:12Shawn was making the hits happen and the visuals happen.
00:42:21In 1992, Shawn is promoted to VP of A&R and Artists and Development.
00:42:27What's up, my name's Puff Daddy.
00:42:29Vice President of A&R and Artists and Development for Uptown Records.
00:42:33Which brought you the hits of Jodeci, Mary J. Blige, Heavy Dean of Boys, Fall MC.
00:42:38And you know, on and on and on.
00:42:40Puffy had Jodeci and Mary J. Blige.
00:42:43But Puffy's a big, huge EPMD fan.
00:42:50He was at my crossover video shoot.
00:42:53And he asked me to do the Mary J. Blige intro for the 411 album.
00:42:57I did that for him and then all of a sudden we became friends.
00:43:07I thought it was a genuine friendship.
00:43:10Until I see that this game is being played.
00:43:15You got an agenda.
00:43:17Mesa, he was trying to court her after we broke up.
00:43:22Shawn wants her because Eric was that dude.
00:43:29It was about, I got her, I won her over from him.
00:43:34He had to have the girl.
00:43:37And Shawn has a way about, when he gets you, he got you.
00:43:42He got you.
00:43:44And now you become property.
00:43:48Me and Mesa were just friends.
00:43:50But he wanted to make sure that there was no calling
00:43:55and me being friends with that girl.
00:43:59Shawn's jealousy, it got to the point where he would put his hands on her.
00:44:04Right outside of Uptown Records.
00:44:07They're fighting in the street and he's beating her into the car well.
00:44:12She's on the ground.
00:44:14And people are pulling him off of her and separating her.
00:44:20A year or two later, they're still together and Justin is born.
00:44:26When he invited me to be the godfather of his first son, I was able to push that in the back of my mind and say that was a really bad moment, but he was weak.
00:44:45And it was a bad moment.
00:44:50Does that make me part of a Shawn Combs cult?
00:44:54Maybe so.
00:44:55I may have been the first disciple, believer, and then overall protector against all odds.
00:45:07Everybody say, Up, Up, Down!
00:45:12Uh!
00:45:13Up, Up, Down!
00:45:17I wanna personally invite one more brother on stage.
00:45:20Responsible for my brother.
00:45:21Joe the seat.
00:45:22Mary J. Blige.
00:45:23Pump Daddy.
00:45:24Pump Daddy.
00:45:25Come to the stage, baby!
00:45:26Pump Daddy.
00:45:27Pump Daddy.
00:45:28Pump, Uh!
00:45:29Uh!
00:45:30Uh!
00:45:31At that point, Shawn is on top of the world.
00:45:35And his trajectory was only up.
00:45:40I was just a wonder kid.
00:45:41It was just something that they never saw before.
00:45:45To be young and to be Puff Daddy.
00:45:50It's just, it's just like, I felt like my dream, man, came true.
00:45:58Everybody now is looking for this kid.
00:46:01Because they all have artists that they have to get to the top of the chart.
00:46:06What does that do to a person?
00:46:09Do you think I'm still gonna be, like, yes ma'am, no ma'am, thank you very much?
00:46:15He became too big for Uptown Records.
00:46:18I'm gonna be so drunk and high by Wednesday at 8 o'clock.
00:46:20I'm not really gonna give a fuck.
00:46:21But I give a fuck.
00:46:23It started to be some dissension between Andre and Puff.
00:46:27Andre was the king of the Uptown castle of the empire he created.
00:46:34And the intern was taking his place.
00:46:38I remember it like yesterday.
00:46:43Andre called me into his office.
00:46:46He tells me just like this.
00:46:49He says, dog, I just fired Puff.
00:46:51I said, word?
00:46:56It was a sad day.
00:46:58Andre was like a surrogate dad for Sean.
00:47:02Sean was really sick when Andre fired him.
00:47:07I'm talking about sick.
00:47:10Couldn't believe it.
00:47:14And then Sean called me.
00:47:16And he said, yo, I'm about to do my thing, dog.
00:47:19Puff was like, yo, I'm looking for some hardcore artists.
00:47:38He's ain't tired of doing the Mary shit.
00:47:40Joe to see shit.
00:47:41He want to do some hard shit.
00:47:42Some street shit.
00:47:43Straight out of Cowson.
00:47:44Crazy motherfucker named Ice Cube.
00:47:46From the gang called niggas with attitude.
00:47:49So I guess I gots the handle mine since I did.
00:47:51The West Coast had the hits that we wanted.
00:48:01Sean signed Biggie in 1992.
00:48:06People didn't know we had to produce Biggie's album for Uptown.
00:48:09He was an Uptown artist.
00:48:11So it's the notorious big dance.
00:48:12Yeah, yeah.
00:48:13B-I-G.
00:48:14Business instead of game, right?
00:48:15Okay.
00:48:16Tell him I told you.
00:48:17But when Andre fired Puff, they fired him with a caveat.
00:48:21I'm letting you go, but I'm gonna let you take Biggie with you.
00:48:27Andre decided to sell us the Biggie album.
00:48:31But now we had to find a way to pay for it.
00:48:35We were living on borrowed time.
00:48:39We went about setting up the meetings.
00:48:43Then we met with Epic, Sony, Columbia.
00:48:47Then we met with Clive Davis at Ariston.
00:48:50Everybody knows him on a first name basis.
00:48:52Clive runs a hundred million dollar record company called Ariston.
00:48:56He has discovered Whitney Houston, Carly Simon, Aretha Franklin, and a long list of other pop stars who thrive in the world, according to Clive.
00:49:09So we went to Clive and we played a few tracks from Biggie's album.
00:49:15And I remember one of the first ones that we played was Gimme the Loop.
00:49:18Yes, love.
00:49:19Love your fucking attitude.
00:49:21Because the nigga play pussy.
00:49:22That's the nigga.
00:49:23And Clive's eyes went like this.
00:49:26I'm slamming niggas like Shaquille.
00:49:28Shit is real.
00:49:29And I said, wow.
00:49:30You got the goods.
00:49:31And I bought into his vision.
00:49:33Gimme the loop!
00:49:34Gimme the loop!
00:49:35Gimme the loop!
00:49:36Gimme the loop!
00:49:37Gimme the loop!
00:49:38Gimme the loop!
00:49:39Gimme the loop!
00:49:40I named it the bad boy.
00:49:43Because I wanted to go against the grain.
00:49:46I didn't want to just make records.
00:49:47I didn't want to just make money.
00:49:49I wanted to make history.
00:49:50I was at bad boy starting from the day that we put the LLC together.
00:50:05And Sean gave me 25% in stock.
00:50:09And his mother Janice had 75%.
00:50:13He did not put the company in his name to protect him from paying families
00:50:19at CCNY.
00:50:23And I saw from that moment on, Sean had shifted in his personality.
00:50:29I didn't see any more of the Mount St. Michael teen Sean.
00:50:37He had become more like the person I see today.
00:50:44We did a deal for approximately $10 million.
00:50:46$1.5 went as an advance into Sean's pocket.
00:50:53Another 1.5 is supposed to be our overhead.
00:50:57Sean said, that's yours.
00:50:59You can do whatever you want with it.
00:51:01But you better make sure my company's running.
00:51:03From day zero, I wrote everything down every day.
00:51:07So I could keep track of everything I needed to do.
00:51:11I ran all the money, all the budgets for the company, as well as a lot for his personal life and all that came with it.
00:51:20I don't like the way you're treating me or me getting my second half.
00:51:23This shit is bullshit.
00:51:25Yo, yo, yo, yo, bust your ass and just...
00:51:27I think that he had this thing with strong men.
00:51:32And he had a thing with wanting to be one, but not positioned to be one street wise, but positioned to be one industry wise.
00:51:39And they call that a paper gangster.
00:51:43I'm not paying nor am I involved in any of that shit.
00:51:47And so as he's paper gangstering, he's also trying to street gangster too at the same time.
00:51:54Savage! I'm a savage!
00:51:57He's not from the street. His mother did the very best to give him the best.
00:52:02What's next? Give me something else. What can't you do? I can do it!
00:52:06But now, he's been getting beefier and beefier with the power from the music.
00:52:11That's a good way to get your head filled up to think that you're just as gangster as they are now.
00:52:17Without even having to pop your gun off yourself.
00:52:20Now, after all this time, me and Misa is still cool.
00:52:27We were just friends.
00:52:29But one time, she just happened to be in my driver's seat in my truck.
00:52:34And all of a sudden, I heard somebody go, and it's him.
00:52:41He's steaming.
00:52:43He swings on me.
00:52:44So I'm laughing because I'm like, you swung on me?
00:52:49You putting yourself in jeopardy knowing you can't whoop none of us.
00:52:54So now, I'm like, let's go around the corner.
00:52:58Because I'm respectful enough.
00:53:01So he actually gets in the car, and we drive around the corner.
00:53:05So I'm about to give him the business.
00:53:07Shit could have got really ugly.
00:53:09And he just said, yo, sit down, I want you to hear something real quick.
00:53:13And that's when he played in the Biggie Smalls album.
00:53:16Yeah.
00:53:18This album is dedicated to all the teachers that told me I'll never amount to nothing.
00:53:23The Juicy single dropped somewhere in 94.
00:53:26It was all a dream.
00:53:28I used to read Word Up magazine.
00:53:30But Biggie's trajectory was not zero straight to the top.
00:53:34Biggie had a slow start, very nervous at first.
00:53:37At the time, that West Coast thing is happening.
00:53:43So we began to look at what they were doing.
00:53:46And Tupac was like a shining star.
00:53:49There's a song called I Get Around by Tupac.
00:53:52That song, if you're like in a science lab, and you're looking at something with a microscope,
00:54:01and you're trying to figure out what it is and what it's made of.
00:54:05That's what we did with that song I Get Around.
00:54:08Sean was just mesmerized by that particular song, the structure of it, the video and the visuals.
00:54:15It showed the culture.
00:54:17It's like, let me dissect this.
00:54:19Let me understand it.
00:54:20Let me do it my way.
00:54:21And the next single was Big Poppa.
00:54:26And that dropped and it took us over the edge with Biggie.
00:54:29I liked it.
00:54:31He was out of here from that moment on.
00:54:33I like it when you call me Big Poppa.
00:54:36Throw your hands in the air if you the true player.
00:54:40We had Ready To Die before it came out.
00:54:43Big had sent Tupac a demo.
00:54:46And we played that tape to death, man.
00:54:48We played that tape till it was destroyed.
00:54:51And then Poppa got the phone call that Big was having an album release party.
00:54:56He said to us, man, we all go into that.
00:54:59He was very excited for him.
00:55:00Notorious Big album release party.
00:55:02It was so bad.
00:55:04We hit everybody here.
00:55:06I've never seen someone more excited for someone else's success
00:55:11as Pop was for Big's success.
00:55:14You ready, nigga?
00:55:15Yeah.
00:55:16You ready for that raw dog shit, nigga?
00:55:18Okay.
00:55:19All right.
00:55:21Let me see how I'm gonna hit you with.
00:55:23He thought Big was dope.
00:55:25He wasn't doper than him as far as he was concerned.
00:55:28Tupacalypse, don't sleep.
00:55:30I keep a motherfucking Glock in my car.
00:55:32But he was the next thing smoking.
00:55:35I'm the high guy.
00:55:36From bed, stop putting the swelling on your eye.
00:55:38Your nose even.
00:55:39When I choke you, you stop breathing.
00:55:41When police come, I'm leaving.
00:55:43Peace and love.
00:55:44Here we go.
00:55:48Pop would take Big with him on tours
00:55:50and let him open up for him.
00:55:58Pop was developing thug life.
00:56:00This ideology of taking back our communities.
00:56:04Big was with that.
00:56:05He felt it.
00:56:06He resonated with it.
00:56:08So they had a connection.
00:56:09They had a connection.
00:56:12Sean was insanely jealous of Biggie and Pac's friendship.
00:56:20You know, when I was around Big, I felt like he really loved me.
00:56:22Like, I felt like if I left the room, he wasn't gonna say nothing bad or somebody said something bad about me, he would defend that.
00:56:31He was probably one of the only people I had really trusted, like, for a long time.
00:56:35There's a yearning for him to have that complete, total control.
00:56:45You're my artist.
00:56:46You're my best friend.
00:56:48You're writing this song for like 30 motherfucking days.
00:56:52I pay you.
00:56:53You work for me.
00:56:56I make hits with you.
00:57:01And who is this guy?
00:57:05Why do we need him in the picture?
00:57:08Guess who gonna win?
