From MTV News:
... Then it was Diddy's turn to take the spotlight. He grabbed the mic and let everyone know that his group Danity Kane will be coming in on the top spot of next week's Billboard albums chart. He also congratulated the crowd on being invited to the party, for which the dress code was "Sexy & Flawless." ...
Soon, the floor was packed to grinding-room-only status as Goldfinger threw on Diddy's "Come to Me," which he brought back several times.
"It feels good to be back," Diddy, still holding the mic, said. "I missed you. Just rock now, don't stop now. We Bad Boy baby, you ain't gotta play the wall. You can dance again. Ask a young lady, 'Would you like to dance?' "

It�s nice to know someone at Warner Music Group � aside from Edgar Bronfman Jr. � even has $18 million. Currently the company has five albums on the charts, none of them selling very well.
Only two are from Warner; the others come from Atlantic Records. And two of those come from Sean 'Diddy' Combs� Bad Boy Entertainment.
What?! If Cassie and (especially) New Joc City aren't/haven't sold well, not a heck of a lot has. New Joc City has had very solid sales, now over 600,000 units. Cassie has moved just over 140,000 in 2 weeks. Not as impressive as Joc, but still, a good debut.
A Diddy fan gets their own Diddy on the next episode of My Own on MTV, according to Atlantic Records.
From MTVNews.com:
G. Dep basically disappeared for the past several years. We haven't seen him since he put out 2001's Child of the Ghetto.
Dep isn't exactly the most talkative person you'll meet, but when we ran into him, he said he's been back in the studio working and might be putting out another album on Bad Boy in the future. One thing's for sure: He hasn't lost his spit game. Dep dropped an ice-cold a cappella freestyle, and the boy still has lyrics.

I have updated our release production history page to be current with the release of the Danity Kane, which I received today.
There are a couple of notable things. First, with the production credit for "Press Pause," D-Dot has reached 50 tracks. This is a mark that only 3 other producers (Diddy, Mario Winans and Stevie J.) have reached.
Second, with his complete production credit over Cassie's album as well as the track on the Danity Kane album, Ryan Leslie is now in the top 10, tied at 10 with Ron "Amen-Ra" Lawrence and Tony Dofat.

There is an article about Cassie at USATODAY.com:
A gift keeps giving: Cassie had just started working with producer Ryan Leslie when her mother asked her to record her a song for her birthday. Cassie and Leslie did a sexy duet called Kiss Me, and when Leslie played it for music executive Tommy Mottola, he offered to be her manager. She later signed a record deal with Diddy's Bad Boy Entertainment. Cassie, who moved to New York last year after graduating high school, says Leslie wrote most and produced all of her album with little interference from heavy-hitters Mottola and Diddy. "They saw the chemistry we had. People know that I'm not a super singer like Aretha Franklin or anything like that, but you realize the love of music between me and Ryan is great. So we want to just have fun and make music that people can sing and dance to."
If, by some twist of events, the Danity Kane album does happen to hit #1 on The Billboard 200 and manages to beat out Outkast, Christina Aguilera, etc., that will be awesome. There are only 52 #1's in a year (assuming that there is a different one every week and that doesn't happen, so there are less), so you can imagine how rare a thing it is. But, if they managed to do it, it'll be the first #1 album Bad Boy has had since Bad Boys II: The Soundtrack, which was released on July 15, 2003.
It would be the 7th Bad Boy release to receive such an honor, following in the steps of Bad Boys II: The Soundtrack, We Invented the Remix, Born Again, Harlem World, No Way Out and Life After Death.
Edit: I was wrong. Emotional reached #9, not #1. I thought that seemed weird when I wrote it. :)
The official site has 8 Ball & MJG's release date listed as "coming soon" now instead of September 26. At least one CD selling site I've seen has their release date as January now. We'll have to see...
