There is a special premiering on BET tonight called "Harlem to Hollywood," chronicling the day of the event where Diddy was given his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
BallerStatus.com has an interview with Donnie Klang.
BallerStatus.com: So what can we expect to see on your album?
Donnie Klang: Well we have the single, "Take You There" featuring Diddy, which is available on iTunes now. Also I will have some of the songs I recorded on the show like, "Dr Love" and "Rolling Stone." We're actually going to call the album Just The Rolling Stone. I also worked with the Souldiggers, Mario Winans, Bryan Cox and Danger, and the Clutch. I actually got to write a lot on my album and there's actually a chance I may get production on my album, which is huge for me because I used to make beats back in the day. The album's gonna have a lot of fresh and new music. It's definitely going to be big.
BallerStatus.com: What's been the most fun so far?
Donnie Klang: We had a lot of fun in Miami. That was pretty crazy. Not only do we get to perform and go to the after parties, but we get to be on the road. That's been a dream for me. I used to watch the old "Boys II Men" DVDs and watch them getting on the tour busses, that was the dream for me. I got my best friend from home whose 6'7 and plays d-3 ball coming to be my security.

One of the hallmarks of the Bad Boy sound in the mid-90s, through the early 2000s, was the in house production from Diddy's hand picked team of producers - The Hitmen.
4 out of 5 of Bad Boy's Hot 100 #1 singles were produced by The Hitmen. In fact, 12 of Bad Boy's 15 Top 5 singles, on the same chart, were also produced by The Hitmen or, at least, Bad Boy managed producers. On top of that, 21 of Bad Boy's 28 top 10 Hot 100 singles were produced or co-produced by someone in this group. Suffice to say, the majority of Bad Boy's biggest hits were crafted by it's in house production team.
In addition to Diddy himself, the team has consisted of such decorated producers as Deric "D-Dot" Angelettie, Steven "Stevie J" Jordan, Chucky Thompson, Ron "Amen-Ra" Lawrence and Mario Winans, as well as a number of others.
But, in recent years, in house production on Bad Boy albums has dwindled. The old members of The Hitmen had, presumably, moved on and, though we heard the group's name brandied about in numerous interviews ( some of those related to Jay-Z's "American Gangster"), on MySpace pages and elsewhere, we really weren't sure: who are The Hitmen now? Does such a thing even exist any longer?
The album booklet credits certainly weren't doing anyone any favors, since none of the producers we thought might be apart of the collective were credited as producing for The Hitmen. For example, in his production work on "American Gangster", Mario Winans is credited as "Yellow City Entertainment/The Senate", while Diddy, LV and Sean C were credited as "Grind Music/The Hitmen/Bad Boy Entertainment".
