Guys are arriving at the airport. Brian H. and Jeremy are the first two to meet up. Donnie joins them next, followed by Willie, Robert, Dyshon, Qwanell, DeAngelo, Brian A. and Michael. They all go crazy over Mike's weight loss. Dyshon: "Is the rest in your bag?"
They head to park (the first place they came when they went to New York) to meet Michael Bivins. He asks them if they are ready for the next step - performing live, in concert. He says that in 48 hours, he wants them to come open up for New Edition at the Beacon Theater.
They head to SIR Studios for vocal training with Ankh Ra. Diddy has broken the 10 down into 2 groups.
Group 1: Q, Donnie, Dyshon, Brian A., Michael
Group 2: Willie, Robert, Brian H., DeAngelo, Jeremy
They will both being doing the same song. It's the Making the Band 4 theme song. The first group gets stopped and Ankh mentions that he didn't seen one player in the whole group.
When Ankh Ra tells Brian H. to bring his energy up, Brian makes a face (he's acting, perhaps, a little disrespectfully) and asks him why he's "trying to clown [him]?" Ra tells him that he's not.

Just a reminder: I'll be liveblogging the Making the Band 4 season finale here on Bad Boy Blog tonight, starting at 10:00 PM ET. So, check back for that.
Also, while we are at it - what 4 people do you want to make the band? It's a tough one for me, personality wise, because I like more than 4 of them. But, I'm thinking Donnie, Qwanell, Michael and Willie. Some tough cuts there. You?
As we reported back in June, Cassie is one of the spokesmodels for Sean John's new approach to women's. Here is one of the first photos of her in this role:
HHNLive.com has an interview with B5.
Ro: Tell me about this sophomore album, �Don�t Talk, Just Listen� how did you come up with that title?
Patrick: When our first album was out everybody was saying that we are just little kids and we don�t know anything about music. Now we are young men and we have grown musically. So the title is basically saying before you talk about us listen to the album.
"In Ya Grill: The Faces of Hip-Hop" is a retrospective look at the work of veteran hip hop photographer Michael Benabib. With some interspersed words from Bill Adler, the book features photos taken as far back as 1986. He's taken photos of a lot of people - but, it's his work with Bad Boy that led to me getting a copy of his book.

The Detroit Free Press has an article on Robert from Making the Band 4:
"I had auditioned for 'American Idol' a couple of years back and, man, the whole reality TV show audition thing was kind of messed up in my head because of how that went. I kind of didn't want to put myself in the position to be set up," he says. "But I decided to do it, anyway. I didn't want to pass up the opportunity to be with Diddy. And MTV, that's crazy. I had to give it a chance."
It's a chance that likely will play in his favor. In last week's episode, Combs asked the other judges to assemble their dream-team singing group. Curry's Polaroid snapshot was in each judge's group.
This wouldn't seem to be all that new, but I wanted to mention it, anyway. Elephant Man's MySpace has some remixes featuring him. They are of Chris Brown's "Wall 2 Wall" and Rihanna's "Umbrella".
Atlantic Records has launched a new site. It looks nice, but nothing too noteworthy content wise just yet. The Atlantic TV section has a category with all of the recent Bad Boy videos in it.
His MySpace has a couple of new snippets:
"Hell Yeah" by featuring Diddy (no, Diddy isn't featured in the snippet... that probably means that Diddy has a verse, rather than just ad libs)
"Bottle Poppin" featuring Gorilla Zoe
You can listen to "Coffee Shop" and "Play Your Cards" in our audio player.
