Sean Combs, a music mogul who once topped the charts before experiencing his headline-grabbing fall, will be present in a New York court on Monday to watch as attorneys attempt to select a jury of his peers who will decide his fate amid a slew of federal charges.

In the 1990s and 2000s, Sean “Diddy” Combs reigned over American hip-hop. He produced chart-topping albums, launched an influential record label, recorded hit songs, inked lucrative branding deals and catapulted hip-hop into a worldwide cultural force.

The trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs is set to begin in a New York courtroom. The Monday trial comes eight months after his arrest on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering.
