  Speaker 1: I know when Othello was on Broadway, I wanted to
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: go to that play so bad. And I know she
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: wasn't in the play, but just because she was a
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: part of it. Of course, Denzel was a part of
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the play as well. It was something that I wanted
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: to do so bad but didn't make it. So I'm
• 1:57

  Speaker 1: back that you know, exclusive look into a Broadway night
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: with Candy. Birds here on the Latest with Laura La
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Rosa the podcast. But let's go on into some News
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: because we are some things that are literally breaking today
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: that I want to talk about. So we are talking
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: about Sean Combs The Reckoning, which is number one on Netflix,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and it's reportedly number one on Netflix in forty nine countries. Okay,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: So there are a lot of people talking about this
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: documentary and we've been breaking exclusives around it here on
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: the Latest with Laura La Rosa, the podcast, but also
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: on the Latest with Lona Rosa on The Breakfast Club
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: weekday mornings on Power one oh five one here in
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: New York or anywhere you know. We've syndicated to so
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: many different places, also via the iHeart app. Now, let's
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: talk about a story that broke today via Rolling Stone.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: So Rolling Stone posted a statement and to be honest,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: this story broke today. But this is a story that
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: we talked about on The Breakfast Club. I want to
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: say almost so we could go when the documentary first
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: came out, and I want to say it might have
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: even been the day that they released the trailer of
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: the Netflix documentary. And the reason why I'm pointing that
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: out is because in this documentary, for those who have
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: not seen it, and for the low riders who have
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: seen it, you guys know, and those who have not
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: seen it do not know. There is new footage exclusively
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: that fifty cent in his production team obtained, which the
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: documentary's seen centers itself around. Now. This new footage is
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: like day to day, almost like vlog style content of
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Sean Diddy Coombs recording himself the last couple of weeks
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: before he actually was taken into custody. So you're getting
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: to see everything from private lawyer and attorney phone calls.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: You're getting to see, you know, conversations between him and
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: very close friends and family just as things drop, So
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: as Don Richard's lawsuit dropped and he's reaching out to
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Khaleena Harper to have her make statements on his behalf,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: him instructing you know, his oldest son justin comes, you know,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: as he's helping him figure things out, which a lot
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: of people honestly did not take well to seeing. People
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: felt like it was pretty insane to see him instructing
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: his son to you know, take so much honest and
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: leadership and figuring out Diddy's mess because it wasn't his
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: son's mess to figure out. But I mean, look that
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: conversation to me, I think is one that you'll never
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: have a fair back and forth about because when it
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: comes to Diddy's children in the role that they should
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: or should not play, because at the end of the day,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: this is their father, and for some of his kids,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: he's literally all he has left. So you know, they're
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: fighting tooth and nail to have their dad, the same
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: way he's fighting tooth and nail to be able to
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: be with his kids and to you know, be able
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: to get back to his life. But Rolling Stone posted
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: a statement from the videographer who was Diddy's dated day videographer. Now,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: a few weeks ago, I told you guys that this
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: videographer in question and it was not on the record
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: statement that there was a videographer and question who was
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Diddy's day to day like main videographer, that he had
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: proper paperwork and contract, like you know, certain things set
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: up with right. And because when I saw this exclusive footage,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: I'm like, how does a man as famous and as
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: business savvy and as business successful as Sean Diddy comb's
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: not paperwork up any videographer, photographer, just anybody in his
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: presence recording such you know, private moments. And I was
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: told then that he has a main person who follows
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: him around and was following him around because he was
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: in a conversation with the Netflix himself to do his
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: own documentary, but that fell through the conversation with Netflix,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: and the main videographer who normally records him was out
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: of town for some days, so they sent a third
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: party to record. Now, at the time, Diddy's legal team
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: did not know if the third party had been properly paid,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: and you know, there was a lot of things up
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: in the air that they were still trying to figure out.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: But they had told me then that you know, this
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: is what happened, and they're still, to be honest with you,
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: trying to figure out where the legal liability lies. Is
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: it with Netflix? Because Netflix, you know, when I released
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: the story, gave me a statement saying they obtained everything
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: legally and anything outside of that is just a false
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: narrative that they're not basically, they're not going to feed
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: it to And I'll read you guys a Netflix a
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: statement so that I'm not summing it up that it's exact.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: But today the videographer and question put a statement out
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: on the record, on the record, meaning he attached his
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: name and his identity to it. So he says, for
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: over two years, we have been working on a project
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: profiling Sean Diddy Combs. The footage in question was not
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: released by me or anyone authorized to handle Sean colmbsterials.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: It was by a third party who covered for me
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: for three days while I was out of state. This
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: incident had nothing to do with any feed dispute or
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: contract issue. The actions of the parties involved reflect the
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: lack of integrity every storyteller should have hold. Taking footage
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: intended for our project to advance a narrative that was
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: not our own is both unethical and unacceptable. Michael, his
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: name is Michael Arberleze or Michael Arbalized, and he gave
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: that statement to Rolling Stone, but and then Diddy's team
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: sent it out wide. Right again, this is something that
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: I told the world about a week or so ago.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: The only difference is that now he's going on the record,
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: which I will say. The reason why you know, I
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: think this is being disgusted again, even though we've already
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: had this conversation, is because now when you go on
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: record and you put someone else in front of this
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: statement besides Diddy or Diddy's publicist. It's like, Okay, somebody
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: else is willing to stand in front of the gun
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: and take the bullet, regardless if you feel like he's
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: being pushed to, you know, allegedly by Diddy's team or whatever,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: if you think this is a PR cleanup or whatever.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: It's just different when someone is willing to stand on
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: what is being said. I will tell you, guys, I
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: did reach back out to Netflix and I said, hey,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: I know I reached out to you guys some time
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: ago on this statement. But he's now come out on
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: the record and he's standing on it, and he's doubling down,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: and I want to read you, guys the statement that
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Netflix gave me. So. Netflix gave me this statement on
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: December third, So they said the claims being made about
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Sean Combs the reckoning are false. The project has no
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: ties to any past conversations between Seawan Combs and Netflix.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: The footage of Colmes leading up to his indictment and
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: arrests were legally obtained. This is not a hit piece
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: or an act of retribution. Curtis Jackson is an executive producer,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: but does not have creative control. No one was paid
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: to participate, you know, and moving forward again. I reached
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: out to Netflix and see if there was anything that
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: they wanted to update and say in response, you know,
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: since this is back out there again and haven't heard
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: anything back yet. And I called Diddy's team back and
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: I said, you know, I understand that, you know, re
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: releasing a statement and having you know, now this videographer
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: who's willing to put his face and his name out
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: there on it. I understand that right now you guys
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: are basically attempting to poke holes and the legality of
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: what they obtained because you want to take legal action
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: of your own to ask them. I said, you know,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: are you guys planning legal action? And so what does
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: that look like? Toma? I was told that there are
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: conversations about a lawsuit, which we know though because they
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: sent a cease and desist, but to be able to say,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: because you can send a seat to desist and have
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: some conversations and then back off, right. But when I
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: saw this statement, I said, oh, conversations behind the scenes
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: between Netflix and Diddy's team must not be going well
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: or they're not happening at all. So I'm like, are
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: you guys planning a lawsuit? Still? At this point, and
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: they said there are conversations about potential lawsuits because at
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: this point Netflix has not responded at all to their
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: seats and desists. There has been no conversation since the
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: cease and desist was since between Diddy's team and Netflix.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Diddy team, of course, is doubling down on their allegation
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: that the filmmaker did not obtain the footage legally. So
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: what they're saying is that Netflix can claim that they
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: obtained the footage legally in how they went about it
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: from the filmmaker who had it, but Diddy team is
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: saying that filmmaker didn't have legal right to even license
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: or sell it to Netflix in the first place. But
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: I would be very surprised if an organization as big
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: dealing with as much media content and licensing as they do,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm assuming daily as a Netflix, I would
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: be very surprised if they went about this the wrong
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: way legally. I think Diddy's team is fighting a very
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: uphill battle here. I mean, it's not impossible, right because
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: you would also think that someone like a Sean Colmes
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: would have, you know, dotted his eyes and crossed his
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: t's when it came to especially knowing what this footage
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: is and how sensitive it is and how sensitive of
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: a time legally in his life this is for him.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: But obviously something went wrong somewhere. So right now we're
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: watching a battle between the two trying to figure out
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: where where the liability lies. Did Diddy mess up legally
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: and not you know, contract everyone the way because at
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: first we thought that this was a money issue. The
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: videographer is now saying, no, this is not a money issue.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: This is an ethic you know. And then the legality issue.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Right so Diddy seem is trying to figure out if
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: they do move for what a laws to right now
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: what they're trying to discover, but it's kind of hard
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: for them to get an answer to or to get
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: a It's kind of hard for them to figure it
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: out because they're not having conversations with Netflix, Like Netflix
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: is not responding to them. It's who legally would they
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: even go after? Is it the filmmaker who was with Diddy,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: like his main filmmaker who contracted the third party? Is
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: it the third party videoographer? Or is it Netflix? And
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I'm like, well, what do you guys do? Because what
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: if they just never respond to you because you don't
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: have to respond to a cease and desist, and they're
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: you know, they're like, well, then we could just move
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: forward legally, take it to court, and legally they would
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: be demanded to respond and they would have to go
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: from there. So we'll see how this plays out. But
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: in the meantime, I don't know if y'all saw, you know,
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: all of the means and the he he ha ha
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: about fifty Cent doing that ABC interview with Robin Roberts
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: to roll out his project because ABC is able to
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: be streamed in the prisons because it's you know, they
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: get that like broadcast. They can watch certain broadcasts television stations, right,
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: So I asked about that. I'm like, look, I know,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: y'all got a lot of other things to deal with,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: but I've been seeing this and I'm just wondering, what
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: is the validity of this, like because fifty cent just
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: spoke about it. So fifty cent did an interview where
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: he spoke about it and spoke about you know, the
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: fact that people were calling him petty for doing the interview,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: was speaking to gold Derby.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: It did characterize it as a hit piece in the
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: very beginning. Is because they didn't get a chance to
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: watch it, you know when they were saying that, and
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: then after they say it, you see everyone's changed their
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: mind and it becomes the number one dog.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: But also someone calling it a hip piece was a
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: statement from Diddy's team. So I mean, what's your response
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: to Diddy seem of course they're going to probably have
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: an opinion, And then what's your opinion on people that
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: just say that you're petty? Are you petty?
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: I accept that, I'll take that out wear that I'm fine,
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: you know, like I have antics that I've become comfortable
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: on social media because of the usage of social media.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: That's just that, you.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: Know what I mean. Like, but when they look at
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: they'll say, me deciding to go on ABC, it's petty
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: The Morning Shows the biggest show these people they came
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: they came from. It's a great opportunity to be on
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: that actual platform. And then but they looked at it
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: it further and said, it's airing in prison. So this
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: would be why I would like to do that, And
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: it didn't come across as a reason not to. Of
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: course I was aware that it would be airing.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: What do you think about like a possibility of him
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: having some sort of comeback when he gets out of prison.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Do you think that's a possibility.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: I'm not a comeback like in music.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, just I mean, w are people going to just
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: be over this?
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Well?
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: I don't think he'll have a comeback with people aware
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: that he's behind it. I do think that his passion
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: for music may allow him to go back to make
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: music because he knows that's what he knows, right, And
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: you can do it and again without meeting the record company,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: like the artists of meeting the audience before they meet
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: the record company now, so you could do those things
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: and develop things of value, and when the company is interested,
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: you end up making the deal. But they don't know
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: that they did the deal with the public doesn't know
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: they to deal with him, you know what I'm saying.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: So he would be able to do that, but I
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: don't see him like publicly people supporting them, and.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: Diddy's team says, I can't guarantee that he watched it.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: You know, he hasn't mentioned it, but yes, he could
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: have watched it if he wanted to. But I can't
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: guarantee that he did, and he didn't mention it to us.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: But it's just the way that fifty cent is calculated
• 15:25
