Sean “Diddy” Combs has sent a cease-and-desist letter regarding ESPN’s Andscape documentary on Shyne, ahead of its Nov. 18 release. Sources indicate Diddy was not attempting to block the film but wanted to ensure factual accuracy after Shyne alleged he took the fall for the Bad Boy Records founder in a high-profile 1999 nightclub shooting.

The incident, involving Diddy, Shyne (born Jamal Barrow), and Jennifer Lopez, led to a trial in 2001. Shyne was convicted of assault and reckless endangerment, serving eight years in prison, while Diddy was acquitted of all charges. Shyne, now a politician in Belize, reflects in the documentary that he was the “fall guy” for the rap mogul, adding, “When I said it [at the time], everyone was partying and having a great time with Diddy while I was left to rot in prison.”

According to Page Six, Diddy’s representatives deny the claims: “Mr. Combs categorically denies Mr. Barrow’s allegations, including any suggestion that he orchestrated Mr. Barrow to ‘take the fall’ or ‘sacrificed’ him by directing witnesses to testify against him. These claims are unequivocally false.”

Appearing on The Breakfast Club, Shyne revealed that he once attempted to spit in Diddy’s face when he visited him in jail. Additionally, he said that Diddy gave him $50,000 as an attempt of reconciliation.

“I felt he owed me something, he gave me $50 racks,” Shyne said. “I said you can’t be serious. 10 years? 50 racks.”
