Listen Later

CBS News Correspondent and CBS Weekend anchor Jericka Duncan was given the task of covering the the trial of Sean "Diddy" Combs. Her assignment puts her at the courthouse and in the courtroom every day of the trial so she has a front row seat to all of the action happening inside and outside of the courtroom. 

This week, Jericka brings on Bonsu Thompson, writer, producer, former music editor for XXL Magazine and former editor in chief of The Source magazine to discuss the complex legacy of Sean Combs. In their conversation, they explore the implications of Combs' actions within the music industry as well as the predatory nature of the industry, the influence of figures like Andre Harrell, and the challenges of reconciling an artist's work with their personal behavior. The conversation also touches on the broader cultural context, including the impact of unhealed artists and the potential political ramifications of Combs' legal troubles.
