There are a lot of people who don’t like Diddy for one reason or another, but Mark Curry’s issues with the founder of Bad Boy have existed for a long time. However, it seems like he now has a new bone to pick with 50 Cent, the executive producer of Sean Combs: The Reckoning. In a recent post, Curry explained how his deal to appear in the documentary was significantly worse than his contract with Bad Boy.
Curry said that he was promised a production credit in the docuseries–he said that he pulled together the talent, largely based on the people he talked about in his book. “I was the one who put that thing together. I was promised a production credit, and the production credit said that even if the documentary was sold, I would be grandfathered into the deal because I helped produce that whole documentary,” he explained. “I saw where 50 [Cent] was like, ‘The proceeds would go towards the victims.’ I haven’t seen that yet.”

He continued, “Nothing really came about. I was like, ‘This right here is worse than any deal…' you talk about a deal with Puff; this is a worse deal than the worst deal.’”
For all the issues he’s had to face over the years, Curry explained that he believed this documentary can create change for him and his story. This also includes issues related to payments for the songs he wrote. He explained that the lack of proper licensing for “Come With Me” would’ve helped him get paid for every time it was viewed. The documentary was reportedly streamed over 50M times.
“Had I had sync license on it, which I thought we would have in place, then I would’ve made some money off of this Godzilla song, ‘Come With Me.’ Man, I made $69 off of that song because they didn’t have a sync license,” he said.
