From Monsters and Critics.com:
He said: "I'm thinking of hooking up with Jay-Z and Diddy. I reckon a rap would be great in one of my songs."
The video just premiered. It's a nice video. I wonder what songs were on the vinyl at the start of the video. You can watch it at http://trl.mtv.com exclusively for a little while.
Diddy also performed on Star Academy. He performed I'll Be Missing You with the chorus sung by a contestant named Dominique and he performed Come to Me with another contestant named Cynthia. Dominique was fine, but Cynthia didn't really fit the song.

Clinton Sparks has added a new song to his site (bottom right menu) called "Reminisce (Clinton Sparks Blend)" by Diddy. Free download. It's a cool Biggie/Diddy tribute mix.
Watch the MTV special I talked about below.
I like the part where Aasim raises his voice a bit and also I like this quote from Will.I.Am, talking about Diddy: "You could be sitting on a pot of gold, he'll still send you off searching." Well worth watching.
I received by Best Buy copy of "Press Play" today and when I listened to the bonus disc, I was surprised to find that "Get Off" is actually different from the previously circulated "Get Off" or "Gettin' Off". Although the credit is given to Sean C. and LV of Grind Music, Diddy doesn't say their names like he did in the previous version. In this one, he mentions DJ Booman, who appears to have produced it. Same words, but entirely different backing music.
Update: according to DJ Booman's MySpace, this is an official remix. You can listen to it on his MySpace. Except that the one on the bonus disc is a little different in that it has some new vocals. It doesn't say "Sean C., LV", it says "Booman", etc.
