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.

Updating a previous story, I've located some more information on Myxx, thanks to commenter myxx fan.

Myxx has an official website. As you can see, no mention of Bad Boy. Ashley Phillips has an official site, as well. Again, no mention of Bad Boy. Both acts, as well as B5, are managed by Jamm Entertainment.

According to this fan site, the girls from Myxx and the guys from B5 are cousins. So, relation, same management, etc... that got them to Diddy's listening party and someone at the site mentioned in my earlier article could have assumed/mislabeled the photos on the site. I don't know with absolutely certainty, either way, but if they were on Bad Boy, they'd be trumpeting it, most likely and they're not, so there you go.

The first ever BET Hip Hop Awards nominees have been announced. Bad Boy is all over it.

"It's Goin' Down" by Yung Joc is nominated for Hip Hop Video of the Year and Hip Hop Track of the Year while Yung Joc himself is up for Rookie of the Year, Hip Hop MVP of the Year and Best Live Performance. His dance, Jocin', seems to be labeled "Motorcycle" and is up for the Element Award: Hip Hop Dance of the Year.

Diddy is up for Hip Hop Hustler of the Year.

The directors of the "Spit Ya Game" (Dr. Teeth) and "Nasty Girl" (Sanaa Hamri) are up for the Element Award: Video Director of the Year. Nitti, the producer of "It's Goin' Down" and "I Know You See It" is up for the Element Award: Producer of the Year.

Similar to the deal that was done with YouTube, Download Squad reports that Warner Music Group is doing the same with Google Video.

This week's The Billboard Hot 100 chart has "Show Stopper" rising from #17 to #16, "I Know You See It" falling from #19 to #22, "Come to Me" rising from #29 to #28, "Me & U" falling from #34 to #42 and "It's Goin' Down" falling from #45 to #46.

This week's SoundScan numbers are in. Danity Kane is in at #28 with 30,600 units sold. That puts them at 613,800 overall. Yung Joc is at #64 with 15,500 (763,000 overall). Cassie is down to #129 with 7,800 (237,000).

Typos are fine. I understand that. But, typos can't be continued over and over again. I cannot tell you how many times I have seen "Keisha Cole" in copy released by Bad Boy, Atlantic Records and related entities. I understand how this mistake can be made... but, when you are a company responsible for the release, putting out promotional material, you need to spell the artists' names right. It's crazy how many times I've seen this!

This week "Show Stopper" is up one spot from #18 to #17. "I Know You See It" leaves that #17 spot, dropping to #19. "Come to Me" stays strong, raising itself 1 spot to #29. "Me & U" fell another 5 spots to #34. "It's Goin' Down" also fell 3 to #45.
