As
I mentioned on Thursday, Diddy will appear on tonight's episode of "On the Record" on Fuse, hosted by Touré. The show airs at 8 PM ET.
Touré told SOHH.com that one of the things Diddy will talk about is that "Last Train to Paris" may be the last album he plans to sell, hinting that the music industry may more widely embrace a free model that pushes fans toward merchandise and concert ticket sales.
Among other subjects, Diddy will also talk about haters (see the clip below, warming: vulgar) and
why Biggie is the greatest rapper of all-time.
Rapper Q Da Kid has released the music video for "It Was All a Dream." The record features a light sample of Biggie (from "Juicy") on the chrous, which is sung by Dondria. Care of
Q Da Kid's Twitter, you can also
download the track for free.

According to the
official website, Diddy will be appearing on
"Lopez Tonight" on July 21 and returning to the show on July 28 to perform with Dirty Money. The show airs at 11 PM ET on TBS.
Back in June,

Janelle Monae was recently interviewed by
The Guardian,
The Sun and
Clash Magazine. Nothing particularly newsworthy, but something that I'm sure fans will enjoy.
According to
EW.com's Simon Vozick-Levinson and the
official DJ Hero website, music from Puff Daddy, The Notorious B.I.G. and Mase will be featured in the upcoming "DJ Hero 2" video game, available on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii. You can

In June,
DJ Chuckie released his remix of Dirty Money's "Hello Good Morning" featuring T.I. At the time, a download of the track was not made available.
In early July, however, Chuckie made it available for free download online. You can download it via the widget below.
On Twitter,
Lil' Cease mentioned that Black Rob would be featured on a record with Peedi Crakk for Cease's upcoming mixtape. He said he would leak the record next week (now this week).
RCRD LBL is offering a free and legal download of the Organized Noise remix of Janelle Monae's "Tightrope" featuring Big Boi. The song was included on the
