50 Cent has reacted to the announcement of a new docuseries by Diddy's sons. Diddy's sons, Christian Combs and Justin Combs, announced the docuseries on December 28, 2025. The series will arrive in 2026 and will be streamed on the service Zeus Network.

50 Cent's reaction to the announcement was on an Instagram comment on the trailer of the docuseries:

"Wow. I want to see this show. I’m not sure this was a good idea."

The docuseries' trailer shows the Combs brothers sitting on the couch, watching headlines of their father's legal issues. The trailer ends with them receiving a call from their father and the statement that it was coming in 2026 on Zeus.

Justin Combs is the eldest child of Sean 'Diddy Combs'. He was born to Sean and fashion designer Misa Hylton. He is a UCLA graduate with a degree in sociology. He starred as King in Power Book II: Ghost, the third season of the Power show.

Christian Combs is the convicted rapper's first child with Kimberley Porter, an American model with whom he had an on-and-off again relationship from 1997 to 2004. Porter died in 2018 due to pneumonia. Christian is a singer and is known for his hit song Can't Stop Won't Stop, which featured Kodak Black.

The announcement of the docuseries by the two Combs sons comes after 50 Cent recently revealed that they almost appeared in the documentary about their convicted father that he had produced, Sean Combs: The Reckoning.

50 Cent revealed this information in an appearance on US Weekly for their December 9 issue:

“I had communications with his son. There was a point when they were interested in being a part of the doc because they wanted to show their perspective. They were concerned about how [things] would be portrayed."

50 Cent employed Justin Combs in scripted television, Power, a series he produced and created. Something which he points out in the US weekly appearance when answering the question of what led to his relationship with Diddy souring:

"I think it was my invitation to come hang out [and then he] was like, “Oh, let me take you shopping.” [In a 2018 interview with The Breakfast Club, 50 said Diddy had asked to take him shopping years earlier, and that it made him a “little uncomfortable.”]"

The singer continued:

"This is something a man says to a woman he’s interested in, and I’m like, “Nah, I’m good.” That was weird to me, and I was vocal about it being weird. But there’s no beef. He didn’t do one thing to me, I didn’t do one thing to him. And I’ve hired [Combs’ sons] Quincy and Justin to work in scripted television programs. Why would I hire them if I hated him?"

50 Cent has been under fire from Diddy's representatives

Diddy's legal representatives have repeatedly emphasized the role of 50 Cent in the production of the documentary on him that was released by Netflix, the above-mentioned Sean Combs: The Reckoning. In their cease-and-desist letter to Netflix, the representatives stated:

"First, Netflix’s promotion of the Program as a “documentary” is fundamentally misleading. In truth, the Program is a hit piece. It was conceived and produced by Curits James Jackson, a/k/a “50 Cent,” whose irrational fixation on destroying Mr. Combs’s reputation is a matter of public record."

The letter also points to 50 Cent's trolling of Diddy on social media as part of the evidence that the documentary is nothing more than a hit piece. Netflix refuted the allegations made in the letter and proceeded with the streaming of the documentary, which went on to become the top-streamed series on the platform in the US.
