XXLMag.com has the exclusive free download of Game's "The Red Room" mixtape. Diddy is featured on "Heartbreak Hotel" where he provides ad libs. The track is produced by Bink!, a member of The Hitmen. Mario Winans produced "First Lady" featuring Kanary Diamonds while Bad Boy managed producer Ryan Leslie was behind the boards for "Everything Red" featuring Birdman and Lil' Wayne. Check out the front and back cover below.

I just wanted to highlight an article I published today on my personal blog, about the unethical practices that are occurring over at Global Grind, a well funded start up backed by Russell Simmons.

In short, they are copying content from this site, and others, small and large. MTV, BET, the Boston Globe and more. In the article, I detailed what they are doing, how it all works and why it needs to stop.

If you write at a publication in the entertainment space, or any online publication, really, you should be mindful of these practices and take steps to stop them, in order to protect your content and your operation. For more details, please check out the post.

Logan De Gaulle, the collective effort of Clinton Sparks and DJ Snake, has released a remix to Dirty Money's "Hello Good Morning" featuring T.I. Download it for free, care of Sparks.

On his Twitter, Clinton Sparks mentioned that his latest mixtape, "Get Familiar Vol. X," will be released on May 18 and will feature Diddy.

Care of an official source, check out the embedded widget below to pick up a free download of Jody Breeze's "Welcome to the Future" mixtape. It features three tracks with Gorilla Zoe as a guest performer. They are "Tryna Get Me" (produced by The Product), "They Don't Want It" (produced by Natural Disaster) and "On Everythang."

Diddy and The Hitmen roll on in Vibe's "The Greatest Hip-Hop Producer of All-Time!" tournament, defeating Teddy Riley, 67.2% to 32.8%. They will now be pit against The Neptunes who advanced over Scott Storch, 73.0% to 27.0%.

As I've maintained for the entire tournament, putting Diddy and The Hitmen against any one producer is just not fair. In this case, The Neptunes are a duo, but it's still not fair. Even with Vibe's incomplete list of The Hitmen.

The winner of this match will face the winner of the Swizz Beatz/Timbaland match. Of all of the second round matches, the most lopsided one was Dr. Dre vs. DJ Quik. The doctor collected 91.4% of the vote.

You can vote now on the Vibe website. The third round ends on Sunday, May 2.

Jonah Hill says that he partied with Diddy for 72 hours in Las Vegas before they started filming "Get Him to the Greek" and that, if you should find yourself as the lead in a movie, you should not spend the three days prior to the shoot partying with Diddy.

O'Neal McKnight sent out a couple of interesting tweets last night, indicating that singer Justin Timberlake may have contributed to Dirty Money's "Last Train to Paris" album. McKnight is a singer, best known for "Check Your Coat," who used to be an assistant to Diddy and is the cousin of Andre Harrell. He posted the following:


He then sent a picture of Timberlake and Diddy in the studio. From these tweets, we can't say for sure that Timberlake has contributed to the album, but at the very least, it appears to be a possibility.

I noticed that the Twitter accounts of James Cruz, one of Diddy's managers, and Ciroc Nation had both retweeted a tweet from the account of Roe Williams, which said that Ne-Yo and Rick Ross were on the set of something today.

I opened that account and the previous tweet that Ms. Williams had sent said that T.I. was taping his scenes for "Hello Good Morning" today. Meanwhile, O'Neal McKnight, the singer, former assistant to Diddy and cousin to Andre Harrell, tweeted that he was on his way to the Diddy and T.I. shoot.

James Cruz, one of the people responsible for managing Diddy, sent out an interesting tweet this evening where he said that Dirty Money's "Last Train to Paris" was "coming June 28."

June 28 is a Monday. Generally speaking, albums are released on Tuesdays. But, with major releases, you sometimes see them moved to Friday, or another day, in order to coordinate with the release date in other countries (one reason this is done is to lessen the impact of piracy caused by an album being released in one major country before the others).

I sent him a message asking for clarification and he replied quickly. "We have something special happening," he wrote. "You'll see." Stay tuned.
