This documentary delivers a penetrating examination of Sean Combs, charting his rise from visionary hitmaker to one of the most powerful figures in hip-hop, and the growing controversies that now surround his legacy. Through archival footage, insider testimony, and investigative reporting, it exposes both the revolutionary impact of Bad Boy Entertainment and the darker allegations that have cast a long shadow over his empire, raising urgent questions about power, accountability, and image in the music industry. In the first two episodes, viewers see how a driven kid from New York reinvented himself as Puff Daddy, building Bad Boy Records into a cultural force. As fame and wealth accelerate, the series explores how the embrace of celebrity ignites a dangerous rivalry with Death Row Records, setting the stage for an era defined by excess, conflict, and unresolved questions. The lingering mystery surrounding the shooting of Tupac Shakur looms large, framing a story where ambition, rivalry, and consequence collide.
In the final two episodes, the story enters its darkest chapter as Sean Combs faces the consequences of a life lived at the center of power and controversy. After the death of The Notorious B.I.G., his influence and wealth surge, but so do reports of violence and instability surrounding his world, exposing a widening gap between public triumph and private turmoil. As multiple accusers come forward with disturbing allegations of abuse, the narrative shifts from rumor to reckoning. Their testimonies ignite a federal investigation that culminates in a 2024 arrest and a high-profile trial, forcing a confrontation with questions of accountability, silence, and the cost of celebrity. What emerges is a tense, unflinching examination of how fame can shield wrongdoing—and how that shield can finally crack.

A third of all trees on Earth grow here and during the short summer they produce enough oxygen to change the atmosphere. In California General Sherman, a giant sequoia, is the largest living thing on the planet, ten times the size of a blue whale. The oldest organisms alive are bristlecone pines. At more than 4,000 years old they pre-date the pyramids. But the baobab forests of Madagascar are perhaps the strangest of all.
