The project is produced by 50 Cent's G-Unit Film & Television and Stapleton's House of Nonfiction. The announcement follows multiple lawsuits against Combs, including accusations from ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura and recent federal charges of racketeering, sex trafficking, and fraud.

50 Cent and Stapleton stated to Variety: "This is a story with significant human impact. It is a complex narrative spanning decades, not just the headlines or clips seen so far." They emphasized that while the allegations are serious, the documentary aims to present a balanced perspective without overshadowing hip-hop culture's broader contributions.

Combs has denied most allegations, though he admitted to assaulting Cassie Ventura after video evidence emerged. He currently faces numerous lawsuits from individuals including Rodney Jones, Grace O'Marcaigh, Crystal McKinney, Dawn Richard, and several others. Recent developments include Combs being denied bail at his appeal hearing.

50 Cent has pledged that proceeds from the documentary will support sexual assault victims. The series aims to give voice to victims while maintaining journalistic integrity in covering these serious allegations.
