In the two clips below, Grind Music Radio interviews Deric "D-Dot" Angelettie and he talks about several different Bad Boy related topics. This includes how D-Dot came to work at Bad Boy, how Biggie ended up being featured on "It's All About the Benjamins," Diddy's vision for The Hitmen and more. It's entertainment and a must watch for Bad Boy fans.

Regarding "Benjamins," D-Dot said that Biggie recorded his verse shortly before he died. He rhymed over the original beat, but Stevie J. put the alternate beat under his verse, the one that ended up on the finished cut, making it "epic."

Check out the clip below for a DJ Premier appearance on Grind Music Radio. Premo tells some pretty interesting stories about working with Biggie and Diddy as well as the creation of "Kick in the Door." Regarding the track, he explains how a certain line was directed at Jeru the Damaja and Premier, because of Premier's involvement in "One Day," a record that took some shots at Diddy and Bad Boy.

Howsmyrolling.net has an interesting interview with Daniel "Skid" Mitchell, Bad Boy's Director of A&R. Here's a sample:

When submitting their material, what is the most common mistake that artists make?

The most common mistake is not following up, and also some people take it very personal if you don’t contact them back. Sometimes I meet artists and if you’re not interested they don’t hit you anymore…just follow up with people. Especially if you have contact with someone like an A&R keep them updated with your music as you progress, because you might not be hot today but you might do a song tonight that if I hear that song it could make me say ‘man, this is the person I would like to deal with,’ but if I don’t get that song then all I know is the last stuff you brought me.
