Yesterday, Diddy announced that there would be a Valentine's Day remix of Dirty Money's "Last Train to Paris" to be released at midnight on February 13 (this might actually mean midnight on the 14th - i.e. the moment that it's officially Valentine's Day).

Today, on Twitter, he wrote that the Dirty Money Valentine's Day mixtape was coming on February 14. Right after he sent that message, he sent another one where he said that there are "four new unreleased joints!" It sounds as though we'll be getting some new Dirty Money music in a few days.

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.

On Twitter, Diddy mentioned that Crain's New York Business had listed Bad Boy Worldwide Entertainment Group third on it's list of the top minority owned businesses in the New York area.

For the purpose of the rankings, the New York area includes New York City and Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester counties in New York and Bergen, Essex, Hudson and Union counties in New Jersey. In order for a company to quality, they must be a privately owned business that is headquartered within the New York area and at least 51% of the company must be owned by minorities.

At the bottom of the rankings, Crain's notes that Bad Boy did not respond to this year's survey and that some data is estimated based on other published information. So, for example, the $300 million in revenue and 600 employee numbers are both estimates.
