“The Fall of Diddy” docuseries is set to air on Investigation Discovery (ID) next month. The series promises an in-depth exploration into the troubling allegations about Sean “Diddy” Combs.

The highly anticipated multi-part series, jointly produced by the Maxine Productions and Emmy-winning Rolling Stone Films, is set to premiere with two episodes on Sunday, February 9, followed by two more on Sunday, February 16, at 9pm, on ID (DStv channel 171).

“The Fall of Diddy” aims to shine a light on the claims of violent behaviour, sexual assault and abusive conduct that shadowed Combs during his decades-long impact on music and culture.

Through a blend of exclusive interviews and never-before-seen archival footage, the docuseries will present a disturbing picture of a man who, despite his tremendous success, is alleged to have concealed a pattern of abuse and violence for decades.

The series features more than 30 interviews with different voices, some even going back to Diddy’s rise from his college days at Howard University to his recent legal troubles, including his 2024 arrest.

Interviewees include D. Woods, a member of Danity Kane who opens up for the first time about her experience with Diddy behind the scenes; Danyel Smith, former editor-in-chief of “VIBE Magazine”, who charted Diddy’s career and speaking on camera for the first time about his alleged violent behaviour toward her; and Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, former producer for Diddy during the making of the “Love” album, who alleges that Combs sexually harassed him.

Other noteworthy interviewees include, Thalia Graves, the woman presenting her testimony of alleged violent rape by Diddy in 2001, Roger Bonds, Diddy’s personal driver who, for the first time on camera, discusses his troubling encounters with the mogul and Jourdan Cha’Taun, Diddy’s personal chef, sharing her experiences during her employment.

These first-hand accounts are supported by feedback from other individuals who have witnessed the darker side of Combs’ life, including former associates, employees and witnesses to notorious events such as the 1999 nightclub shooting.

“‘The Fall of Diddy’ paints a holistic picture of a mogul who is alleged to have wielded his extensive power and influence to obscure, for decades, a pattern of abuse and violence that left an unprecedented amount of pain and suffering in his wake,” read a statement.
