12/28: LAist Interviews Diddy (Talks "Last Train to Paris," "Where I'm From" Beat, More)
LAist's Tim Hammer has an interview with Diddy from a promotional stop in Los Angeles. They talk about Ciroc, "Last Train to Paris,"
the beat from Jay-Z's "Where I'm From," which was used on Dirty Money's "Angels" and more.
LAist: In the single "Angels" you use Jay-Z's "Where I'm From" beat. Was that a beat you knew you always wanted to do something with?
Diddy: I always loved that beat. You know it was produced by my team, The Hitmen, for Jay-Z so we had some involvement with the original but it was always a beat that was so hard to me that I wanted to definitely do something with.
