On Tuesday, I mentioned that Jeremy Greene would soon be releasing a mixtape, "All is Fair in Love and Music." And now it's here.

The mixtape features 11 tracks, including Greene's unofficial remix to Dirty Money's "Hello Good Morning," "How Fly is He" featuring Diddy vocals sampled from "Hello Good Morning" and "Loving U Was Wrong," which is Greene's take on Dirty Money's "Loving You No More," including the instrumental to the original, as well as Drake's verse.

You can download it for free care of his Twitter. Check out the cover and full track listing below.

Brian Stelter of The New York Times reports that Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez will join Randy Jackson as the judges on "American Idol" this season. Interscope Geffen A&M Records chairman Jimmy Iovine is also joining the program, serving as an "in-house mentor" to contestants.

This announcement puts to rest, for the time being, the notion that Diddy could become a judge for the show. He expressed interest in the post back in May and we launched an online campaign to support that interest in June.

A new Diddy record, "Shades," has appeared online, featuring both Lil' Wayne and Justin Timberlake. The song, which is tagged as Diddy, rather than Dirty Money, begins with a slow build up including a Lil' Wayne verse that is more spoken word than rap. Diddy sings and, toward the end, Justin Timberlake enters with a rap verse of his own.

It is almost certainly unfinished and, though it is tagged as Diddy, I have to believe that it is a Dirty Money record (whether or not it ends up featuring Dawn Richard and/or Kalenna, who are not on the record that is now circulating) because of the timing and the fact that Lil' Wayne and Justin Timberlake are both confirmed collaborators for "Last Train to Paris."

Stay tuned.

Santana's new album, "Guitar Heaven: The Greatest Guitar Classics of All-Time," features a remake of AC/DC's classic "Back in Black. According to Melinda Newman of Hitfix, the song was supposed to feature Janelle Monae alongside Nas. But, apparently, it did not work out.

Nas appears on AC/DC’s “Back in Black,” but newcomer Robyn Troup totally steals the song as she imitates Brian Johnson’s powerful howls. (Early press releases had Janelle Monae on the song, but sources say that at the last hour, it didn't work out) Regardless, Troup, who won NARAS’s “My Grammy Moment” competition a few years ago, is a future star. We look forward to her Serletic-produced debut.
