Victoria Yue of Medill Reports: Chicago has a story on "Bring Your 'A' Game," a documentary that will be airing on BET on September 13. Aimed at motivating youth, it features Diddy, Chris Rock, Lupe Fiasco and more.
Forbe has released their 2009 list of The Celebrity 100 - the most powerful celebrities in the world. They ranked Diddy at 35 and conducted a short interview with him for a video feature that you can watch below.
Thanks Paul for the tip.
Following the excellent D-Dot interview on RockMeTV where D-Dot mentioned that he'd recently been producing for Diddy and Cassie (or that's what it sounded like), I sent him a note on Twitter asking if he was on "Last Train to Paris."
He replied, confirming that he was and that he had done a song called "My Heart." Thanks to him for getting back to me. I'm definitely excited to hear this.
Check out the funny clip below where Diddy catches Asher Roth ("I Love College") walking away with slippers from Diddy's house.
So, I happen to visit Lala today. It's a site that I visit very infrequently. Wait, what's that? "Diddy Boppin'" under new releases? When did that happen? How could this be the way that I found out? I check the Bad Boy label and artist MySpace and YouTube pages every day and, somehow, I haven't seen a single mention of this. I can't believe it.
At any rate, the good news is that "Diddy Boppin'" was released digitally on May 26. Above is the single cover. You can pick it up on Amazon.com ( clean and dirty, iTunes, Lala and elsewhere.
In an interview with Vlad TV, Busta Rhymes explained how Diddy pushed him to switch up his style in the 90s. It's a pretty funny clip and you can check it out below (warning: explicit language). When he was asked why he made the change, this is what he said:
"I think it was a combination of - not really the wider audience - it was more directed towards the women. Like one day, me and Diddy and Q-Tip was in the studio and, I tell people this story on a regular basis, like motherf***** Diddy was being a a**h*** with me one day in the studio - trying to f****** pop off joke s***. But, he said something that stuck with me and Q-Tip was kinda, you know, saying the same s** to me. And Puff was like "Hey yo Bus, man, b****** don't wanna f****** go rowl rowl like a dungeon dragon with you on every f****** record. Calm that s*** down, man. Try to spit on a song where you articulate your s*** a little clearer and you f****** use your regular voice. What the f*** is the screaming all the time on the record? B****** don't find that s*** sexy." I was like, "Yo, f*** you n****." So, you know, ultimately, I went home and I thought about the s*** and then I also felt like, you know, I ain't just gonna just do this s*** because they told me to do it, I gotta do that s*** because it feels right to me."

On Diddy's Twitter, he mentioned that he was finishing up the "Last Train to Paris" mixtape, starring Lectro Black and Felix Da Housecat. It's unclear when it'll be released.
Following the #unfollowdiddy outbreak that started last night, #followdiddy is now a trending topic, as well, on Twitter Search. This is all bigger news than some people will make it out to be, but I'm sure random hip-hop blogs will be touting this as some sort of blow against Diddy, so I may as well mention that #followdiddy is trending, as well.
Also, if you read this and were thinking that #followdiddy is somehow responsible for slowing down Twitter, it's not. Not more than any other trending topic.
Congratulations to Diddy for becoming the 13th Twitter user to reach 1,000,000 followers. He posted the video below, to mark the milestone:
Coincidentally, the #unfollowdiddy hashtag is now a trending topic on Twitter Search. The comments tied to the tag reads like a good example of a Twitter mob gone bad - a manifestation of gossip hounds, people who believe Diddy is responsible for all aspects of his artists' lives forever, people who believe everything negative they read about celebrities, people who are looking to gain some sort of shine off of the situation and people who are simply legitimate "haters." By and large, anyway.
It'll pass and Diddy is best served by doing what he always does with these situations, which is to keep it moving.

In the video below, MTV asked Diddy to give advice to this year's host of the MTV Video Music Movie Awards, Andy Samberg. Diddy has hosted the MTV Video Music Awards previously.
