(Photo by Mark Von Holden/Invision/AP, File) Sean "Diddy" Combs' extensive music catalog has surged in popularity since his recent arrest and the unsealing of an indictment against him. According to Luminate, an industry data company, his on-demand streams were up an average of 18.3% during the week of his arrest compared to the previous week. This spike is not unprecedented; following a documentary on R. Kelly outlining misconduct allegations, his streaming numbers came close to doubling. Combs faces serious charges including federal sex trafficking and racketeering. The indictment details allegations dating back to 2008, accusing him of abusing, threatening, and coercing women to protect his reputation and fulfill his desires. He has pleaded not guilty to these charges. (This story was generated by Newser's AI chatbot.
