50 Cent has restarted his 18-year feud with P Diddy as he shared details of a new documentary about lawsuits accusing his rival rapper of rape and 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual assault.
Both of Diddy’s luxury mansions were raided by law enforcement authorities as part of a 𝓈ℯ𝓍 trafficking investigation, with several individuals seen leaving in handcuffs. Officers were spotted with their guns drawn as they confronted those at the properties. The rapper has vehemently denied any wrongdoing and called the case a “witch hunt”.
And amid the raids, 50 Cent has confirmed he’s making a documentary about Diddy. 50 Cent, real name is Curtis James Jackson III, first announced the upcoming documentary, which is produced by his company, in December and teased the title “Diddy Do It?”

50 Cent’s production company, G-Unit Films and Television, has confirmed it’s developing the documentary with a focus on the multiple lawsuits accusing Diddy of rape and 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual assault. According to reports, all proceeds from the doc will benefit victims of 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual violence.
And following the raids on Diddy’s homes, 50 Cent shared a poster for the docuseries his production company is gearing up to release. But this isn’t the first time that 50 Cent and Diddy have come up against each other, with the feud between the two rappers publicly kicking off in 2006.
In 2006, 50 Cent released a diss track titled The Bomb. The track seemingly claims – without evidence – that Diddy knows who shot and 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁ed The Notorious B.I.G. back in March 1997. Since then, the pair have been at loggerheads.
In 2010 Diddy then described 50 Cent as a “hating a** crap” after he became the manager of Rick Ross in 2009. And then just last year, 50 Cent got involved when Diddy’s ex-partner Cassie Ventura filed a lawsuit alleging rape, 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual assault, and human trafficking. The case was settled out of court a day after it was filed.

The reignition of their feud comes after Diddy was hit with several 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual assault lawsuits. Last year, he faced four different accusations. On Monday, law enforcement told the Mirror of the raid: “Earlier today, Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) New York executed law enforcement actions as part of an ongoing investigation, with assistance from HSI Los Angeles, HSI Miami, and our local law enforcement partners. We will provide further information as it becomes available.”
Diddy’s lawyer, Aaron Dyer, also shared a statement with us on Tuesday. It read: “Yesterday, there was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr. Combs’ residences. There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated.”
He went on to say: “This unprecedented ambush — paired with an advanced, coordinated media presence — leads to a premature rush to judgment of Mr. Combs and is nothing more than a witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits. There has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations. Mr. Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every single day to clear his name.”
