Diddy documentary bombshell: Disgraced ex-rapper warned ‘you’ll get killed’ for getting involved
Sean “Diddy” Combs’ rise to prominence, first in the hip-hop community and then as a globally recognized music mogul, is highlighted in a new documentary.
Born and raised in New York, Diddy’s colorful past is brought to life through stories told by childhood friend, former employee and singer Al B. Sure, who has a son with Diddy’s late ex-girlfriend, Kim Porter.
“Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy” was released months after the fallen rapper was accused of racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation for the purpose of prostitution in a federal indictment unsealed Sept. 17.
In a statement to Fox News Digital about the documentary, a representative for Diddy said, “This documentary recycles and perpetuates the same lies and conspiracy theories that have been spewed against Mr. Combs for months. It’s disappointing to see NBC and Peacock appear to be spewing the same mud as the unethical tabloids. reporters By providing a platform for proven liars and opportunists to make false criminal allegations, the documentary is irresponsible journalism of the worst kind.”

Here’s a look at the top bombs from the Peacock special.
Violent threat
Porter, a former model who dated Diddy for 13 years, had three children with the “Last Night” singer — twins Jessie James and D’Lila and sons Christian and Justin. She shared her third son, Quincy, with former singer Al B. Sure. Diddy later adopted Quincy.
Al B. Sure, whose legal name is Albert Joseph Brown III, broke his silence and admitted that Porter once warned him that he would “kill him” if he got into Diddy’s lifestyle.
“You have to remember what people have been fed this propaganda against me over the years. ‘Oh, Puffy did it and adopted your child.’ … If you haven’t noticed, his name is still Brown,” says the singer. “People thought I was absent and things like that. I was basically instructed… [Combs] he wasn’t too happy about anyone having a relationship with Kimberly.

“Kimberly said, ‘Don’t get involved. You’re going to die.’ Even to the point where I remember,” Sure said before pausing. He then told producers that ongoing legal issues prevented him from discussing the situation further.
Porter passed away in November 2018 from pneumonia. She was 47 years old.
Her death was ruled natural by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office.
Al B. Sure called her death “her murder”, before wondering aloud: “Should I say ‘allegedly’.” He claimed to have seen the former model before her death and remembered her looking in good health. When he heard that she had died of pneumonia, he thought, “No, there’s something wrong with this.”
Porter allegedly made Sure promise not to talk about their lives “because she was in total fear for my life,” he said.
“Before her death, she kept a diary and things like that,” he claimed. “Someone got the code to her phone and her computer and they found out what was going on behind closed doors.”
A deadly stampede
In 1991, Diddy headlined a charity basketball game in the City College of New York it became deadly. More than 5,000 people tried to get into the gymnasium to witness the good-bye between Diddy and Heavy Da, but the gym could only fit 2,730.
Fans desperate to see the match — and other big names, including Mike Tyson and LL Cool Ja — tried to break through the double doors that opened inward instead of outward, and a huge crowd rushed toward the entrance.

The gates remained closed for 15 minutes as fans tried to enter, eventually crushing nearly 30 people, nine of whom died.
No criminal charges have been filed, but Diddy, at 22, has faced numerous civil lawsuits filed by the victims’ families. One of the victims, Sonya Williams, was given a ticket to the event that day by Combs.
Her brother, Sonny Williams Jr., recalled meeting Diddy six years after the lawsuit in his late sister’s case. Williams was brought into Diddy’s office and offered $50,000.
“I remember looking around the office and now I see all these plaques on the wall,” Williams said. I said, ‘Brother, you arranged all this and you offered me $50,000’. He said, ‘Sonny, man, listen, man, you know, that’s really generous.’ And I lost it.
“I said, ‘Is Sonya your fucking friend? You offered me $50,000 and you gave Sonya a ticket to that event.’ That was a slap in the face for me.”
Growing up
Diddy’s childhood friend, Tim Patterson, recalled growing up in Harlem, New York, with the aspiring musician. He claimed that Janice Combs, Diddy’s mother, organized parties where “it wouldn’t be a coincidence to walk into one of the bedrooms” and see the “naked” couple.
“That’s what we were trained to do. That’s what they fed us,” Patterson said. “Did it desensitize us? I’m sure it did. Were we aware of it? No, it was just a Saturday night.”
Diddy’s father, Melvin Early Combs, was killed in an ambush shooting when Diddy was 3 years old. Melvin Combs, a drug dealer, was allegedly caught selling drugs to an undercover officer and then allegedly killed for talking to the police.
After his father’s death, Diddy and his mother were left with money that allowed them to live a different life than their peers, and Diddy was often bullied by his peers for being the rich kid in his class. Patterson and his mother moved into the Combs home at Janice’s request.
Patterson noted that he protected Diddy from bullies, and the pair regularly attended parties at his childhood home where they were exposed to alcohol and marijuana in their youth.
“He was around all kinds of alcohol. He was around smoke,” Patterson said. “He was around drug addicts, around lesbians, around homosexuals. He was around pimps and thugs. That’s exactly who was in our house.”
‘Really wrong’
Diddy’s former bodyguard, Gene Deal, claimed that Diddy “could” have been involved in the 1997 drive-by shooting. Notorious BIG

After Biggie shot, Deal recalled how “Puff ran out the hospital door, grabbed my hand and said, ‘Gene, we have to pray.’
“‘Pray for what? That p—– is dead, bro.” [Diddy] he was just stunned. He had that look in his eyes like he couldn’t believe it [Biggie.] was dead,” Deal said.

When Deal was asked if he believed Diddy had anything to do with Biggie’s death, he said, “I think he put BIG in that atmosphere. So, did he directly have something to do with it? He could have.”
Combs said “The Wendy Williams Show” 2017, “I’ll always feel some form of responsibility because I’m in this thing with him. He’s my artist. He was supposed to go to London that night and I let him talk me out of going to London and staying in LA and that’s something that’s really bothered me all my life.”
