May 2028 has just become a pivotal month for Sean “Diddy” Combs.

New records from the Federal Bureau of Prisons show that the 55-year-old hip-hop mogul is projected to be released from behind bars several months early — on May 8, 2028.

Combs is serving out a 50-month prison sentence after being convicted on federal prostitution-related charges for transporting male escorts across state lines for drug-fueled sex encounters with ex-girlfriends.

The once nearly billionaire rapper has been locked up at a notorious federal jail in Brooklyn since his September 2024 indictment, and his time served there counts toward his overall sentence.

Combs’ projected May 2028 release date would see him set free roughly six months earlier than expected.

A Bureau of Prisons spokesperson told Business Insider that inmates sentenced for more than 12 months and one day receive “good conduct time” at the rate of 54 days off the sentence for every year sentenced. The spokesperson added that May 8, 2028, is Combs’ “projected good conduct time release date.”

Combs’ defense attorneys did not immediately respond to a request for comment. His lawyers have indicated that they will appeal the music tycoon’s conviction on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution and his more than four-year prison sentence.

In the meantime, Combs is seeking to be transferred to the Federal Correctional Institution at Fort Dix, a low-security facility in New Jersey. The prison has what’s known as a Residential Drug Abuse Program, and a lawyer for Combs previously suggested in a letter to his sentencing judge that the program would be beneficial to the recovering addict.

The judge, US District Judge Arun Subramanian, has offered to recommend that Combs be considered for any available substance abuse program while incarcerated.

Combs may be able to shave up to 12 months more off his sentence if he completes the intensive, 500-hour, nine-month substance abuse treatment program, prison consultants have told Business Insider.
