Sean “Diddy” Combs is once again on his way out of prison.
According to Federal Bureau of Prisons records viewed by Page Six, the disgraced music mogul’s release date from FCI Fort Dix now falls on January 21, 2028. TMZ was first to report the news on Tuesday.
Page Six confirmed earlier this month that the rapper’s release date would be February 5, 2028.
Before that, Combs’ release date was moved up several weeks, from February 23, 2028 to January 24, 2028 – despite the rapper’s July fight with another inmate and subsequent stint in solitary confinement.
However, earlier this month the date appeared to have been pushed back to February 20, 2028. Its original release date was set for June 2028.
According to TMZ, the Grammy winner was involved in an altercation over the summer, taking “charges” after being insulted.
According to several media sources, the two prisoners jostled each other during the alleged encounter.
The “Mo Money Mo Problems” rapper reportedly “held his ground” during the incident, after which prison staff separated them.
Combs was then placed in solitary confinement and later released, TMZ reported in August.
At the time, the Federal Bureau of Prisons told Page Six in a statement: “For reasons of privacy, safety, and security, we do not release information regarding an inmate’s conditions of confinement, including housing assignments, nor do we discuss whether a particular inmate is the subject of allegations, investigations, or sanctions.” »
Combs was convicted of two counts of transportation for the purpose of prostitution in July 2025, but found not guilty of two counts of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion and racketeering conspiracy.
The “Bad Boy For Life” singer was transferred from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, to Fort Dix in New Jersey after being sentenced to 50 months in prison.
He has vigorously denied any wrongdoing, despite multiple pending lawsuits accusing him of a range of misdeeds.
Combs’ lawyers, meanwhile, dropped the fashion designer earlier this month in his $100 million defamation lawsuit against NewsNation and others.
In documents obtained exclusively by Page Six, attorney Michael Tremonte of the Sher Tremonte Law Firm claimed that Combs “failed to pay a substantial balance of attorney’s fees, costs and expenses” and was six months “substantially arrears in paying Sher Tremonte’s legal fees.”
The documents also accused the rap star of failing to adequately participate in his own case, making their representation “unreasonably difficult.”
They cited “Mr. Combs’ lack of cooperation and communication” in an alleged “breakdown of the attorney-client relationship.”
“Mr. Combs has refused to make himself available for timely, substantive and direct communications about his cases for over four months,” the documents state.
Combs, meanwhile, responded in a statement to Page Six, saying he “made the decision to change lawyers because I will not let anyone take advantage of me by overcharging me and racking up bills that were never approved.”
He added: “This is strictly a commercial matter, and any discussion of unpaid charges is only part of our dispute regarding these unapproved charges. »
Tremonte again claimed that they were “withdrawing from representing him because he had not paid his long-overdue bills and had become uncooperative” and called his accusation of being overcharged “simply false.”
