Earlier this week, we reported that Diddy was planning a grime remix of Dirty Money's "Hello Good Morning" and that he had talked to U.K. producer and rapper Skepta about doing it.

Diddy opened up to MTV UK about these plans, saying that he wants Skepta to do a "straight, dirty, authentic grime remix" and Diddy wants to fully remix and redo the track, including the vocals and the beats.

On April 16, Diddy revealed that he was "about" to sign his first rapper from London. Speaking to MTV UK, Diddy tempered those remarks ever so slightly.

"I haven't signed a person yet, I'm looking at signing a person but his name is not Fugative," Diddy said, commenting on the rumors surrounding the U.K. rapper. "I'm a little ways away from it and I know Twitter is very powerful and I gotta watch what I say. I was just speaking off the top of my head that I finally found a rap artist that I liked, but, I can't say who it is but I really don't think you would know him if I said his name. He's like London’s best kept secret. I don't think he's really out there like that."

According to Tom Shales of the Washington Post and ScrippsNews, Diddy is one of the celebrities who loaned their voices to "America: The Story of Us," a new 12 hour, six day series on the history of the United States, airing on the History channel. It premieres on Sunday at 9 PM ET.
