According to Diddy's MySpace, the video for "Tell Me" will premiere on TRL on MTV on October 30. Making the Video will come later at 6:30 PM on the same day.
AllHipHop.com reports that "Press Play" will debut at #1:
The Bad Boy hit streak continues this year as label head Sean "Diddy" Combs' solo album Press Play lands at No. 1 on Billboard's Top 200 Album Chart.
The disc moved over 176,000 units in its first week, besting releases from Evanescence (The Open Door), JoJo (The High Road), Dierks Bentley (Long Trip Alone) and Ruben Studdard (The Return ).
Congrats to everyone involved. You have to go all the way back for 1997 to find a year where Bad Boy had at least 2 #1 albums.
AllHipHop.com's Rumors section has this:
If you pay attention to the credits at the end of these shows, you will see that Diddy and Russell Simmons have been doing work in the TV world. In fact, they are making tremendous strides with stellar shows like "Run's House." I heard a rumor that Russ and Diddy are quite possibly going to take it to the next level. I heard they might be working on another label venture that will be based in Atlanta. So far, I have been unable to find information on this, so it could be a silly rumor. It could also be that base of power needed in the industry. Stay tuned…
Again, rumor, rumor, rumor... meaning, probably not true. But, I wanted to go ahead and mention it, anyway.

Putting together Press Play has been a long process for P. Diddy. After relatively average sales for 2001’s The Saga Continues album, Diddy decided to focus on growing his other businesses (i.e. clothing line Sean John, record label Bad Boy records etc), taking a break, and even working on a dance album called Divided Souls with some of dance music’s hottest producers, which has since been put on the back-burner. ...
“A lot of time when you get somebody’s iPod, you’re shocked because you’re like, ‘this person listens to Coldplay, Tupac and Garth Brooks?,” he laughs. “People like all types of music and all types of things. You look at what’s going on in the UK in the underground hip hop, grime, garage, and drum‘n’bass scenes. I mean my iPod is full of things from dance music to movie scores to James Brown… there are so many things that are in my head. I wanted to be able to express all that without being all over the place, and still make it hip hop – that’s what I tried to do.
You can watch it at RWD. Some adult content in there, obviously, so you have been warned.

Cox News Service has a quick interview with Diddy:
Q. Were you surprised when Justin Timberlake came out with a record talking about bringing "sexy" back? Particularly since for years you've been talking about throwing parties for the sexy, being part of the grown and sexy, even mentioning in your Proactiv commercial that you were "preserving your sexy."
(Laughs) I know. Who knew "sexy" had gone away and needed to be brought back? Naaaw, I mean, I was cool with it. I don't get really caught up into stuff like that. I love the record. I like his work ethic.
Diddy was on 106 & Park tonight (as he has been all week for Diddy week).
He performed. It was the best performance I've seen on the "Press Play" promo tour. He performed the first two verses from "We Gon' Make It" followed by "I Am (Interlude)". Very nice performance.
One thing I found myself thinking while watching it, is "How often is Clinton Sparks in a suit?" :)
After it, he was on the 106 & Park couch and he brought the winner of Freestyle Friday up to the couch to sit with him and he gave the guy a $1,000 Sean John gift certificate.
According to BET, that's what is happening tomorrow at 2:00 PM ET.
