A portion of Diddy's verse from "I Need a Girl (Remix), Pt. 1" has been sampled for a new Charlie Wilson track called "Need a Wife." The song takes the line "I really need a wife at home" and lays it over the chorus of the track. Diddy ad libs of "yeah" and "come on" are also added. It's unclear if any of this was freshly recorded for this track, but I wouldn't be suprised if it wasn't.
That said, it is executed in a satisfying manner and the track has a nice sound.
Thanks Theo.
From
MTV:
"When we came out, I can say it now, I actually hated Puff Daddy," Nore said in his studio, sitting next to Capone. The duo were in the lab recording their next LP, Channel 10. "I can say that now, 'cause Puff is my man. I was disgusted at what they was doing with the shiny suits and the blow-up dolls and looking like Missy. I didn't agree with that. I felt the shiny-suit movement was destroying the grimy movement. As I got older, I learned to respect people for doing different things. At that time, 'Pone was actually locked up. I was on the streets, and I would turn on BET and MTV, it would be the shiny-suit dudes. It was a messed-up time.
"Mase was killing them," he added. "Y'all can say what y'all wanna say about Mase, but he was killin' them. You almost wanted to throw on something shiny. They caught Jay-Z. Remember Jay with the 'Sunshine' [video]? He had the Ferris Wheel, the Cyclone, whatever. It was real hard."
Sounds like he was young and mad that he wasn't receiving the attention he wanted and his life wasn't going how he wanted, so he got a little jealous. It happens. It's good that he's come to realize it. Diddy put him on the "Too Old for Me" remix, which is probably one of my favorite Bad Boy remixes.
Fox News and
People have more on the
club incident on Friday night, in Atlanta. According to the police, a gun was fired while Diddy, Nelly and Usher were performing on stage. The only person reported to have been hurt was a secruity guard, who received a minor injury when a bullet grazed his elbow.
Various reports indicate that shots may have fired, last night, at a club in Atlanta where Jermaine Dupri was hosting a party. These reports have also stated that Diddy was in attendance and was rushed from the premises when it happened.
Digital Arts has a story on some of the production details of Diddy's
newer Burger King commercial, directed by Spike Lee.
AllHipHop.com has a quick interview with Diddy, discussing his reality TV ventures.
“This is an overall plan of mine I’ve had for the past year to take over the airwaves,” Diddy revealed to AllHipHop.com. “For the month of August I have three shows on the air. On Monday you have I Want to Work for Diddy, Tuesday you have Run’s House, and Wednesday you got Making the Band. So every time you turn on VH1 or MTV you’ll see the Bad Boy logo or hear the music. It’s a lot of real estate and brand marketing that I’m experimenting with along with the creative content that I’ve put together.”
Following up on
Cassie's statement, regarding the recent rumors, we have a
blog post from Diddy.
"I am not engaged. It's crazy how in this day and age someone can make up anything and people believe it!!," he says in the post, before promoting the new VH1 reality show.
Rap-Up.com reports that Diddy is featured alongside Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, Lil' Wayne and Fatman Scoop on Jerkins' remix of the Pussycat Dolls' "When I Grow Up". Definitely digging Diddy's part on this one. Nice remix.
Diddy announced through his YouTube channel that he will announce his plans for the upcoming Presidental election on Friday.
