Diddy goes behind the scenes as he puts the finishing touches on his album, "Last Train To Paris" in stores and online December 14.

Diddy-Dirty Money performs their latest song, "Coming Home" which I personally dislike. I was just talking to my friend about this too. Diddy-Dirty Money's debut album, "Last Train To Paris" will be in stores December 14 or is it December 21. I swear I can't keep up with these ever changing release dates these days. ---------------- Now playing: Ciara - Basic Instinct (U Got Me) via FoxyTunes

These days artists are releasing videos so fast its hard to keep up with them especially if you run a blog like I do. I don't like this song. They could of kept this one. I think Dirty Money will release their album, "Last Train To Paris" next month on December 14 or December 21. I can't remember. ---------------- Now playing: Miguel - Girls Like You via FoxyTunes

This past summer we saw Prince being paid tribute to via the 2010 BET Awards. His facial expressions were priceless maybe because he knows through all the tributes; no one does it quite like him! The singer is embarking on a new tour; read below for more info. Also T.I. headed back to jail and Dirty Money finally releasing their debut album? Pop icon Prince held a press conference at Harlem's historical Apollo Theater this evening to announce his upcoming 'Welcome 2 America' tour, which Prince vaguely told the crowd will take kick off "on a purple night in December 2010." Prince added that he's bringing some friends along for the ride. Janelle Monae, Mint Condition, Esperanza Spalding and Cassandra Wilson will join the legend on the forthcoming jaunt. BET's Vice President of Entertainment Stephen Hill introduced Prince and informed the crowd that as a lifelong fan of the singer, he was equally as excited for to hear the announcement. Hill ran down ...

Music Biz: Sean Garret Working With Whitney Houston On New Album! As the primary songwriter of megahits such as Usher's "Yeah!," Chris Brown's "Run It!," Ciara’s "Goodies," and, most recently, Mario’s "Break Up," hip-hop producer Sean Garrett is one of the decade’s guiding forces in music, penning 15 number one hits. (He’s rumored to be working on an album with Whitney Houston. Let’s hope he can pass along some of that Billboard karma to that diva train wreck.) But unlike other writas-ternt-sangas such as Ne-Yo and The-Dream, Garrett hasn’t found the same success behind the mike as he has behind the pen. His debut album, Turbo 919, was a mere blip on the pop radar; nonetheless, Garrett is pushing ahead with new solo material. His upcoming single, the Tyga and Gucci Mane collaboration "She Geeked," is already one of the hotter songs of the summer. http://www.miaminewtimes.com/2010-06-17 ... b-the-mike ----------------...

I guess this was bound to happen and this virtually is something we hear every two years. What I'm saying is every two years or so; we hear so and so will record an album together. 95% of the time it never happens but I don't think anyone really holds their breaths for comments like that. Now the probability that Drake & Lil' Wayne might record might be pretty high. But we shall see! Kid Cudi has been arrested and I can't remember but he has been arrested before. I just can't remember what for. Click here to learn more about that. The new album for Dirty Money titled; "Last Train To Paris" has suffered many pushbacks. Unfortunately the album has been pushed back again this time to September 20. ---------------- Now playing: Keyshia Cole - I Remember via FoxyTunes

After numerous setbacks; Diddy-Dirty Money will release their debut album; "Last Train To Paris" on June 29(I might have to check that date again). The album contains the singles; "Hello Good Morning" featuring T.I. and Rick Ross. There's also "Love Come Down" and there was a song before that but I can't remember. I actually like the album cover and "Hello Good Morning" is kind of growing on me. What do you all think about the album cover! ---------------- Now playing: Blu Cantrell - Lady via FoxyTunes

Diddy won't give up on his Dirty Money group which comprises himself; Dawn Richards(formerly of Danity Kane) and Kaleena Harper. Check out the video to their latest single from their oft-delayed album; "Last Train To Paris".

Hello all! What's been going on in the land of music? Well not too much since news have been relatively slow since we're at the end of the year. But I do have a few things for you all. Diddy and his Dirty Money was supposed to release their album, 'Last Train To Paris' this year but the album will now be released sometime in 2010. Diddy is allegedly tweaking the album to perfection which is not uncommon. I can't say I'm interested in the album but good luck to him and them; Dawn and the other girl. I can never think of her name. You know the other one looks a lot like Missy Elliott and Ester Dean(have you all seen her???). There are many albums to look forward to in 2010. But who exactly? Will Monica finally release her long awaited, 'Still Standing' album? Gawd I hope so! It's been a long time coming. Toni Braxton? Hopefully. Well two albums that actually have release dates are Drake's debut 'Thank Me Later' and Trina's 'Amazin...

Hello all! I hope you all are enjoying your weekend. It's unusually cool today but that's okay with me, I like cool. I have some music news for you all. Kelly Rowland talks new album, Beyonce's free concert tickets, and Diddy's album pushed back. Read more about these stories below. Kelly Rowland Talks New Album! Former Bandmate singer turned solo star Kelly Rowland is currently topping charts across the globe with her smash single "When Love Takes Over", and now according to Billboard, the songs producer David Guetta has revealed that he will in fact be producing the majority of the singers upcoming third studio album. It's looking less and less likely that Rowlands new album will be R&B like her first two efforts, especially in light of some recent comments she made to Billboard regarding Guetta. "The current sound with urban and pop is just kind of dancing in circles, and nothing is going anywhere," Rowland says. "I was really kind of...

Do you like it pretty? Do you like it dirty? or Do you like it young? Lately several new groups have been formed all including the name 'money'. Certainly there is money to be made and who doesn't love money. Starting with Trina, the rapstress has formed a female super group titled, Pretty Money. The group has appeared on a few songs with Trina primarily on the "Millionaires Girl's Club" mixtape released a few months ago. Dirty Money is the newest group featuring Diddy, Dawn Richards(formerly of Danity Kane), and Kaleena(Who?). The group has already released a song called, "Angels" which features the late Notorious B.I.G. I haven't heard the song so I don't know if its any good. I also remember reading that Dirty Money will make an appearance on Diddy's upcoming album, "Last Train To Paris". Perhaps one of the biggest rap clicks in recent years is Young Money. Spearheaded by Lil' Wayne, the group features upcoming rappers su...
