Is anyone anticipating the new Diddy album?

i've really come around to "love come down" and "angels", as random leaks last year they didn't do a great deal for me but there's something about the action movie vibe of "hello good morning" that makes them slot into place

show 'em how to move show 'em how to move show 'em how to move show 'em how to move in a roomful of vultures

wait how does a northern accent come into it? i'm just hearing an extra syllable/pause thing in there. also not be unkind but arent you the one still thinking fantasia's seriously singing about the bosphorus.

tbh ti could be reading out his shopping list on this beat for all i care, he's lively and on beat whereas lumbering-ass ross drags the whole thing down.

this song is probably about a 7, what did it get on the jukebox?

i was entertained by the minaj verse.

i don't think i ever actually thought fantasia was singing bosphorus!

mufti in northern kinda = moofti, right? it's definitely a long o.

on the jukebox i liked it, someone else liked it, everyone else was like "beats are boring and diddy can't rap" sigh.

oh are you meant to say it muff-tee and not moof-tee? shit, no wonder i failed my sharia bar exam.

eh oop moofteh

do you know, it's one of those words that i'm not sure i've ever heard spoken out loud. i could well have been pronouncing it wrong all my life. i was 12 when i realised that "massacre" was not, in fact, pronounced as though it was a french word.

also, as this won't make the final copy, this is what diddy said about cassie when i asked (with literally 20 seconds of the interview left and the pr looming) -

We had to spend a lot of time on artist development with her. She was blessed with a big record out of nowhere, and was going on the stage with no one nurturing her. I've been spending a lot of time nurturing her.

cover art was plucked from an australian blogger: "This is the most random thing to ever happen to me, I mean I went on a fucken holiday, put a photo on my blog, and over a year later that photo ends up as an album cover for fucken Diddy."

awesommmmmmmmmme

I hope that's a Chic cover.

Oh well. Bit of a disco beat at least. Doesn't do much for me though.

fuck me that is awesome, rapture man!

yea i like this

lol that /P_diddy_jessica_biel_stare.jpg is his photo on wikipedia

ha, it got reverted

this is great besides wayne and timberlake

is it just me, or did it seem like it took forever for the next dirty money single to leak?

I don't think they've announced a next single yet actually, I think this one may be it tho

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwFAcBcFRdA

i think this album is gonna be incredible btw

yeah i thought it was that one w/ drake

yeah me too I love all of the leaks

shades is amazing

(inc. wayne and timberlake)

yeah it is

i need to do a james fauntleroy mix(tape)

he's like the best songwriter out for the past 2 years

disagree about wayne and timberdrake tho obv

i don't think this album is actually going to come out tho

lol...when i interviewed him it was meant to be a fortnight off release or something. then they said it had been put back to sep. *checks calendar* ok then, see you in '11 along with cassie. oh, bad boy records.

I'm hyped to see how this album is going to turn out. also 'I mean I went on a fucken holiday, put a photo on my blog, and over a year later that photo ends up as an album cover for fucken Diddy.'

hahahahahahahahahahaha. fucken.

'WTF. This is wackkkk. Would have been better if they were all in the photo at a train station or something with luggage, now that would have been fire.'

Turfucken.

'shades' and fauntleroy are classic just for having diddy sing

I’ll do anything for you
I’ll even take off my shades
and stare right at the sun from the stage
(I’ll even try different things)
I’ll even try different things
I’ll make love to you on marmalade
(never made love on marmalade)

I’ll make love to you on marmalade
(never made love on marmalade)

crucial qualification which makes this IMO.

says everything about drake that timberlake can let off a howler of a verse like that and still somehow be less irritating than the man himself

really really wish he wasnt on 'loving you no more' also - pretty cool song otherwise

diddy and this album are totally being dragged down by its guest peers :/

haha xp no i left off the even more crucial qualification later in the verse as the reality of diddy's suggestion begins to sink in

I’ll make love to you on marmalade
(Are you sure thats what you want to do)
If that's what you want to do

yall saw grace jones is meant to be on this though right? do kinda think if diddy can get everyone to do some ursula rucker spoken word instead of their usual he can still pull this off.

had to stare at that gif for a minute to realise it was backwards rather than just diddy grimly pedalling to the corner shop

Second interpretation a bit deeper than I like to go with gifs.

heh. the-dream said like two years ago that he was writing songs for this album -- did any of those ever leak, i wonder? hope something makes the final cut, very curious to hear diddy attempting to sing a terius-penned melody.

looking at his resume...idgi

love his vocal arrangements, melodies, song concepts... a lot of the stuff I love by him are just demos that haven't been released like:

home
abducted
who's the loser now
drum life
casualties

then there's:

britney - mannequin
cassie - skydiver
chris & jordin - no air
rihanna - te amo

Last Train To Paris has been pushed back again and now it's "due" on the 14th of December? Tracks from this album have been leaking since Fall 09. I remember when Love Come Down and Angels were on every mixtape. It's like Her Name Is Nicole all over again.

lol her name is nicole

u know she's releasing another solo album lol

i love "No Air" and "Cold Case Love" but not knowing about his own demos i just think of Fauntleroy as being part of the machine churning out all of JT's mostly ho hum collabos the last couple years

so fucking dope... I wish J. Lack got more work, really underrated producer with his own sound... I love every track he's produced pretty much

rick ross ghostwriting

man i really hope the "angels" rmx with ross is on this album -- secretly one of my fav songs of the year
