I have read the article, and it shows that Sean Diddy Combs attorneys have requested for everyone involved with him in his case to come out and reveal themselves alongside one another. They believe that being honest is necessary so they can help address the situation together and make things easier. They are trying to put together a case that challenges the accusations put on Diddy. This is a common strategy used in plenty of high-profile cases like this one so therefore the information is true.

This is most likely true. Several verifiable news organizations have covered this topic with similar content in their articles, and the letter motion to US District Judge Arun Subramanian of the New York Southern District Court filed by Sean "Diddy" Combs' counsel is publicly accessible, in which Combs' attorneys argue for the release of his accusers' identities as detrimental for them to build a legal defense, and "if left unchecked, will irreparably deprive Mr. Combs of a fair trial[...]", according to the aforementioned letter.

CNN article (Not as relevant, but they too report that Combs' attorneys have filed a request for the U.S. government to release the names of the alleged victims.)

This article appears to be true, as at least three other sources say the exact same thing about Sean 'Diddy' Combs "demanding" for the names to be released. Based on the similarity between vastly different sources and the common tactic being used for the case, I believe it's true.
