The new 50 Cent executive-produced Netflix documentary about music mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs, titled Sean Combs: The Reckoning, reveals that the mogul would often be awake for 14 days, with the support of cocaine consumption, according to a singer and former groupmate in Diddy’s trio.
Kalenna Harper — the singer-songwriter best known as one-third of Diddy’s group Dirty Money — delivers one of the most revealing accounts in Episode 3, “Official Girl,” of the four-episode documentary. Candid footage of the mogul in the studio would flash as Harper explained working with Dirty Money.
In the episode, Harper pulls back the curtain on what she describes as Sean “Diddy” Combs’ intense “14-day cycle,” a period marked by nonstop work and heavy consumption of high-end drugs that shaped the creative environment inside Bad Boy.
“Puff had this like 14-day cycle,” Harper says, recalling how the mogul operated when she was part of his inner circle.
According to her, Combs would stay awake and push himself without pause. “He would go hard for like 14 days. ’Cause he was like a baby, he didn’t want to go to sleep.”
Harper’s description paints a picture of a hyper-driven leader maintaining momentum by avoiding rest altogether. Diddy and Dawn Richards, with Harper, performed as Diddy’s Dirty Money from 2009 to 2012.
She explains that these stretches weren’t just about productivity — they were about entering what Combs referred to as “the motherfuckin’ zone.” That motherfuckin’ zone, she says, was both creative and chemical.

“It was like, let’s get in our motherfuckin’ zone. The motherfuckin’ zone was cocaine. Strawberry cocaine, purple cocaine, pink cocaine, designer drugs.”
The color-coded list unveils the presence of specialty and high-potency substances that she describes as part of the culture around him. Diddy’s admission to rehab was revealed in 2025 during his federal case.
Harper emphasizes that these scenes weren’t abstract rumors. She was present, working directly alongside Combs as part of Dirty Money and the larger Bad Boy machine.
“Remember I’m there, ’cause I’m working,” she says, situating herself as both collaborator and witness. What she observed, she adds, wasn’t an anomaly — it was routine. “That’s the Bad Boy way.”
Within Sean Combs: The Reckoning, Harper’s testimony contributes to a deeper portrait of Combs’ internal world. It’s defined by extreme highs, long stretches of wakefulness, and a creative atmosphere fueled by designer drugs and relentless pressure. Harper’s comments follow others who detail how Diddy got into consuming drugs after a straight-edge beginning to his career in music.
Through Harper’s account, viewers gain a sharper understanding of the culture that shaped both the music and the mythos of the Bad Boy era. Diddy has spoken out about the documentary via representation in a press release shared to the public on Monday, December 1.
Sean Combs: The Reckoning is available for streaming now on Netflix.
