Another Take: Will Diddy’s downfall shift the US music industry?

Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on October 25, 2024. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed. The sex trafficking trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs is under way in New York. The music mogul courted controversy since the 1990s and now faces allegations of trafficking and coercing women into drug-fueled sexual performances. The Take looks back at the rise of one of the most powerful men in Hollywood and the significance of his arrest.
