Today, we're bringing you episode two of the latest podcast from 20/20 and ABC Audio, "Bad Rap: The Case Against Diddy."

This week, we chart Diddy’s rise from musician to mogul, from the center of hip-hop to the center of American culture. But that rise wasn’t always a smooth ascent. Along the way, he had moments of alleged violence and brushes with the law. Were these lapses in judgment or serious red flags that signaled a darker side to his success? 

Remember, you can catch new episodes of "Bad Rap: The Case Against Diddy" early by following the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
