50 Cent’s celebration over the success of his documentary about Sean “Diddy” Combs continues with a new post that references Netflix’s hit series Stranger Things.
Fif shared a post on Instagram that read, “I know Stranger Things is pissed they spent $500M on a season, only to be beat by Diddy doing stranger things,” followed by two emoji faces. In the caption for the post, Fif wrote, “I been working today I haven’t seen anything what’s going on?”
The post referenced the fact that the documentary that Fif produced, Sean Combs: The Reckoning, is almost as popular as Stranger Things’ final season. During its opening week, Sean Combs: The Reckoning amassed 21.8 million views on Netflix in six days, which was right behind Stranger Things with 23.6 million views.
After Fif’s documentary hit Netflix on Dec. 2, the rapper revealed that being an executive producer for the series was nothing personal. During an interview for Good Morning America, Fif responded to the question of how he feels about people criticizing his connection to the documentary because of his issues with Diddy over the years.
“What they considering a preexisting beef, for twenty years… [It’s] me being uncomfortable with him suggesting that he takes me shopping,” the rapper explained. “It was like a tester. Like, ‘Maybe you’ll come play with me.’... It’s not personal.”
Elsewhere in that interview, Fif spoke about the part of the series where Diddy had a film crew record him talking to his lawyers about the case.
“It was surprising that he actually filmed it,” said Fif.
In a different conversation with Gold Derby, Fif explained that he thinks the reason Diddy’s actions went unanswered for so long was hip-hop’s outlook on “snitching.”
“It’s a part of hip-hop culture,” Fif said. “They think they’re telling, or something.”
