Twitter Lists are a new feature on Twitter that has not yet been rolled out to all users, but should be there soon enough. We just got access on the @badboyblog account and so we have started creating some Bad Boy related lists aimed at helping Bad Boy fans to get the most out of Twitter. So far, we have four lists:

Bad Boy Artists - follow current Bad Boy artists, including members of groups signed to Bad Boy.
Day26 - follow all 5 group members on their individual accounts, plus the main group account.
Dirty Money - follow all 3 group members plus the main group account.
Diddy - follow Mr. Combs along with his company accounts on Twitter: Bad Boy Records, Bad Boy Publishing, Ciroc, Sean John and Blue Flame Marketing and Advertising.

If you have an idea for a list, please feel free to let me know in the comments. Enjoy!

Update 2: All charts have been fixed.

Update: All of the charts I mentioned below have now been fixed, except for Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Recurrents and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Recurrent Airplay. Biggie received a spot on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Catalog Albums chart.

Here are Bad Boy's positions on the most recent Billboard U.S. album and single charts, released Thursday. Dirty Money's "Love Come Down" moves to a new high on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and debuts on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay.

Albums

Top R&B/Hip-Hop Catalog Albums

24. "Ready to Die" by The Notorious B.I.G. (up from 25).

Songs

Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs

71. "Love Come Down" by Dirty Money (a new high, up from 85).
77. "So Good" by Day26 (down from 76).

Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay

71. "Love Come Down" by Dirty Money (debut).

Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles

25. "Angels" by Dirty Money (re-entry).

Unfortunately, the Billboard website is currently having some issues. The following charts are inaccessible: Billboard Comprehensive Albums, Tastemakers, Top R&B/Hip-Hop Catalog Albums, Hot 100 Recurrent Airplay, Hot Ringtones, Hot Adult Contemporary Recurrents, Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Recurrents, Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Recurrent Airplay and Hot Adult R&B Airplay. While Bad Boy likely didn't chart on most of these, there are a couple where they may have: for example, "Ready to Die" by The Notorious B.I.G. had charted on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Catalog Albums the previous week. I'll check back later to see if they fix the issue.

In the clip below, Mase shows up at the V-103 Alanta studios during a visit from Diddy/Dirty Money. He claims to be in search of his "freedom" and has papers for Diddy to sign.

He enters the booth where Diddy, Dawn Richard and Kalenna are sitting alongside host Ryan Cameron and others, and the host makes the sort of excited proclamations you'd expect. Then there is a brief clip where Diddy is looking at some papers and seemingly signing them.

"Just to be clear: he has the freedom to go do whatever he wants to do," Diddy says when the interview resumes. "People that felt like ... I may have stopped him or whatever, he can do whatever he want to do. I'm trying to make everybody's crystal clear. If you want those Mase verses, you can get your hustle on right now. You know, he got a slick tongue, though. He a mean negotiator, so you better come with that gwop."

During today's appearance on BET's 106 & Park, host Rocsi asked Diddy who was still on Bad Boy, in light of the move to Interscope. "Everybody that's on the roster is still on the roster," he said. He stressed that future acts would be on Bad Boy/Interscope, as has been reported. "Nothing's really changed, it's just the future."

Unfortunately, this chart is not properly displayed on the Billboard website at press time. Previously, Cassie's "Let's Get Crazy" had held the 34 spot. Hopefully, they'll get it sorted and I can report on this in an update or next week.

Update: The chart was fixed and "Let's Get Crazy" is no longer on it.

Since his last album was released on Def Jam, I figured that everyone already knew that Shyne no longer had any contractual relationship as a recording artist with Bad Boy Records. But, I guess some were unclear, so Diddy confirmed it to AllHipHop.com.

"I looked forward to this day," Diddy said. "The whole situation was a tragic situation. He's a young man that has a whole life ahead of him to live to be successful and to come out here and put his foot in the game."

He had previously discussed the rapper's release on "The Ed Lover Show."

MTV News' Jayson Rodriguez spoke with Diddy recently and asked the Bad Boy CEO about the potential of a new album on Bad Boy from The Lox.

"I would definitely love to do the next LOX album," he told Rodriguez. He added that the two have been talking but that they actually need to hold a "real" meeting.

Related to the recent Bad Boy/Interscope news, Rodriguez writes that Diddy is "hard at work managing projects between the 'Scope and Atlantic, where a handful of his artists, including Cassie and Day26, still reside." Check out the video below.
