"I see Diddy's work as an artist being celebrated all the time," Cox said in a statement. "It was important to me to celebrate his work and honor him as a businessman who's marketing genius changed the face of the music industry. Having worked closely with him throughout the years, I've been a direct beneficiary of his counsel and its been life changing."

free download. It's the official remix to "A** on the Floor" featuring Swizz Beatz. The song features an entirely new instrumental.

Twitter.
Diddy
announced this evening that Dirty Money's "Coming Home" had, so far, sold 1.7 million copies worldwide. He also mentioned that "Hello Good Morning" had sold 1.2 million.
"Hello Good Morning" was
certified gold by the RIAA in September, which indicates sales in the United States of at least 500,000. "Coming Home" has yet to be certified, but I have a feeling that it is only a matter of time.
The
last few months have been a little crazy and, as such, we have been focusing on high level stories - or stories that happened to cross my desk - here at Bad Boy Blog. At the same time, being a comprehensive source, I at least wanted to summarize some of the stories that fell through the cracks during this time. Check out some of them below.
