According to an
Interscope-issued press release, Usher, Grace Jones and Trey Songz have been added to the guest lineup for Dirty Money's "Last Train to Paris."
When Diddy and Rick Ross
released their first collaborative single as the Bugatti Boyz, "Another One," one of the question I had was: what record label was releasing this project?
Obviously, Diddy is Bad Boy/Interscope. Ross is Maybach Music Group/Def Jam. Well,
according to the latest Billboard charts, "Another One" is being released by Bad Boy/Interscope. So, the Bugatti Boyz, from this, appear to be a Bad Boy act.
Here are Bad Boy's positions on the latest Billboard U.S. album and single charts, released today.

As I
mentioned back in July, I will be attending
BlogWorld & New Media Expo in Las Vegas. Due to this, coverage may be light here for the next week or so.
I may still post some news, especially if anything particularly noteworthy breaks, but otherwise, I just wanted to make sure that my regular readers were aware.
Thank you for your understanding and support of Bad Boy Blog.
On Twitter,
Red Cafe announced that he would be releasing a new record online every Monday for the rest of this year. DJs will receive the record on Friday. This follows in a similar vein to Kanye West's
GOODFridays.
The BET Hip-Hop Awards 2010 aired this evening and Diddy picked up the win in the "Hustler of the Year" category.
As
I reported in September, Dirty Money's "Hello Good Morning (Remix)" and DJ Khaled's "All I Do is Win (Remix)" featuring Diddy were both nominated in the "Reese's Perfect Combo Award" category (also known as "Best Collaboration"). But, they came up short, to Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind" with Alicia Keys.
"Hello Good Morning" was nominated for "Best Club Banger," with the award going to Rick Ross' "B.M.F." But, it was a cool moment as Diddy went up on stage with him and Ross mentioned both Bad Boy and Ciroc in his short acceptance speech.
"Once again, it's on," he said. "Team Rozay. Maybach Music. Def Jam. Ciroc Boyz. Bad Boy. We here. CMB forever. Free Weezy."
Diddy, Rick Ross and DJ Khaled opened the show with a performance of the song, with Diddy and Khaled helping with the ad-libs and sharing the hypeman role. After "B.M.F.," they did Ross' "MC Hammer," with a break at the end where MC Hammer came out to perform a small portion of "Too Legit to Quit." They all appeared on stage briefly and the show had began.
On Friday,
Diddy confirmed that the new release date for Dirty Money's "Last Train to Paris" was December 14. The album has seen a number of delays and push backs, but according to Diddy, that won't happen again.
"12-14-10, 'Last Train to Paris' finally in stores!," he
wrote on Twitter. "This will not change!"
Jeremy Greene has released his music video for "Fireproof," and you can check it out below. It was
shot in July in Maine and directed by Rage. Check out some
behind the scenes footage.
Female trio HerStory has premiered their new single "Mack'n," which features a prominent, though slowed down sample of The Notorious B.I.G. from the late rapper's hit, "Big Poppa." You can
listen to it on MySpace.
SoulCulture shares the following videos, of Cheri Dennis performing during a Christian Rich concert last week. She provides some support for Rich before doing a record of her own. If you haven't seen her in a while, you'll also notice a new hair color. But, if you've been following her on Twitter, you will know that she's had it for a little while now.
