On episode #299 of Coolest Alive, host Jesse Blaze Snider's assessment of  Sean Combs: The Reckoning. Executive-produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson and directed by Alexandria Stapleton, this explosive four-part Netflix miniseries (released December 2, 2025) chronicles Sean “Diddy” Combs’ rise from Harlem kid to Bad Boy Records mogul, discovering stars like Mary J. Blige and Notorious B.I.G., scoring Grammys with No Way Out, and building a billion-dollar empire, while unpacking the dark allegations of violence, exploitation, and 2024 federal sexual misconduct charges leading to his conviction and imprisonment. Packed with never-before-seen footage, insider interviews, and a raw examination of power’s consequences, it has sparked massive debate for its unflinching look at hip-hop’s golden era and its shadows…a staggering cultural reckoning.
