The latest Billboard Hot 100 chart as the following:
"Show Stopper" is the top Bad Boy track, moving up to #12 from #13. "Come to Me" is at #15, down from #9. "I Know You See It" falls 4 spots to #33. "Tell Me" fell 30 spots from #62 to #92, but the video was just released, so we'll see how that plays out. "Long Way 2 Go" managed to stay on the countdown, but barely, as it's down 3 spots to #100.
"Press Play"'s second week tally is 60,000 (good for #7), pushing it up to 231,000. "Danity Kane" sold 17,900 (#47, 680,400 overall), "New Joc City" sold 9,400 (#101, 797,951) and "Cassie" sold 4,600 (#191, 254,100). Next week will likely see "Cassie" finally fall off of The Billboard 200, unfortunately. This makes me wonder when the last time was (before last week) that Bad Boy had 4 albums in The Billboard 200.
Old, old video featuring Diddy (who remixed the track, along with Tone Capone) on the intro. Watch below.
Thanks Anthony.
As was reported before, Diddy is in at #1 with 170,500 (171,000 overall). Yung Joc, the iron man, keeps going with another 12,000, giving him 788,600 in all, in at #76. Cassie is at #167, selling 5,600 copies (249,600).
Edit: Commenter jo mentioned that Danity Kane was missing. That's true. They must be in there somewhere, but I don't know where, sorry.
Wow. "Come to Me" jumped again, up another 9 spots to #9 on the charts. "Show Stopper" fell one spot down to #13. "I Know You See It" fell 7 spots to #29. "Tell Me" debuts at #62. Also debuting is "Long Way to Go" in at #97. "Me & U" has finally fallen off the charts after peaking at #3 and staying on there for 27 weeks. Very nice run.
For those curious, that makes 9 singles that have charted on the Hot 100 this year for Bad Boy. That is T3rd for the best Bad Boy has had. The best year in that regard was 2001 with 11. 1997 would be 2nd with 10. And then 2006 would be tied with 1998 with 9. For anyone curious, the worst years were 2005 and 2002 with 2 each. For this count, singles were associated with the year that their album came out.
mp3.com has an interview with Pharoahe Monch. He mentions that Bad Boy offered him a deal and he also talks about "The Future":
mp3.com: OK. I've never heard another emcee copy your style verbatim, and [The Future] made me wonder if ghostwriting is something you've done often over the years?
PM: Nah. It's the first time I did it. One, because Puff called me in. He was like, "Yo, let me hear what you're working on." I played him some of my s***. He was blown away. I was like, "Wow. I didn't think he was going to respond like that." He played me the beats that he had, which was like Alchemist and Kanye and Denaun Porter and Havoc. And I was like, "Holy s***." Like, he has some real thorough beats. Being the psycho Scorpio that I am and knowing that he's a Scorpio, it was fulfilling to take the job to get to see what goes on behind the scenes of a mogul for my own crazy curiosity, you know.
mp3.com: And what did you see when you stared into that realm?
PM: The number one thing is there are lots of women. Number one thing is he appreciated my work ethic in the studio. But on the flip side, I appreciated his work ethic, period. Like, dude doesn't sleep. I never seen him sleep. I'm pretty sure he got sleep somehow somewhere, but.

The latest Billboard Hot 100 chart is out.
"Show Stopper" continues to fight back up the chart, moving up 4 spots to #12. "Come to Me" is back at it as well, jumping 10 spots from #28 to #18! That's a high for Press Play's first single. "I Know You See It" holds firm at #22. "Me & U" is down 3 spots to #45. "It's Goin' Down" has finally fallen off of the chart, after reaching #3 and lasting 28 weeks. Excellent run.
meandmuzic on YouTube has posted an MTV documentary type of program called "It's All About the Backstage: Puffy and the Family On Tour" which takes you behind the scenes of the major tour back in '97. Watch parts 1, 2 and 3.
On the video, I saw Diddy, Foxy Brown, Jay-Z, Nas, AZ, Foxy Brown, Lil' Kim, Mase, Busta Rhymes, Spliff Star, Carl Thomas, 112, Lil' Cease, Usher, The LOX, Black Rob and (I think) Kelly Price. Faith Evans must have been in there somewhere, as well. What a tour.

This week we have "Danity Kane" in at #30 with 26,100 (639,900 overall), "New Joc City" at #67 with 13,300 (776,500) and "Cassie" at #140 with 6,700 (243,900).
Next week we'll have Diddy's first week numbers.
I was watching the TRL interview yesterday when they asked him for a regret and he said that he regretted passing on Ludacris
Now, I know some people may use this to bash Diddy, but the fact is, people that do just don't know how it all works. This is the case for really every big artist, whether you're Biggie, Aerosmith, 2Pac, The Rolling Stones, Ludacris or... anyone, really. Very rarely do artists get signed by the very first person who sees them, without seeing anyone else. Everyone gets passed on. In a business, you say yes to some ideas and you say no to some ideas with the best foresight possible. But, sometimes, you say no to an idea that turns out to be good - or great. That's just the way it is, it's inevitable, especially in that industry.
