As you may have heard, Jadakiss was arrested. No, that's not what is funny.
Check out this article at NME.com.Look at the headline "P Diddy Cohort Arrested". I love that when Jadakiss is arrested, he's a "P Diddy Cohort". You'll have to excuse me if I don't think that Diddy and Jadakiss are going out of their way to spend time together these days.
From the
press release:
BURGER KING(R) has another "king" when it
comes to music and fashion -- Sean "Diddy" Combs. In his new role with the
worldwide fast food restaurant company, Diddy -- Bad Boy Records founder,
CEO and recording artist -- will help beef up Burger King Corporation's
profile in the music and entertainment industry, consulting on relevant
entertainment and marketing talent, as he himself is set to star in an
upcoming BURGER KING ad campaign.
The multi-year relationship kicks off in October with a co-branded
channel on YouTube.com titled "DiddyTV." The interactive channel is now
live with a personal video message from the Grammy-winning superstar. Fans
can visit "DiddyTV" ( http://www.youtube.com/diddytv ) for exclusive access
to music tracks and video clips from Diddy's first solo collection in five
years, "PRESS PLAY" (Bad Boy/Atlantic), in stores Oct. 17.
"Sean 'Diddy' Combs is a pop culture icon, and we're thrilled to be
able to collaborate, using the breadth of his talents as an artist,
entrepreneur and change agent to impact and inspire our guests," said Russ
Klein, president of global marketing, strategy and innovation, Burger King
Corporation. "We expect this to be a rich, long-term relationship that is
wide open in terms of Diddy's contributions as a BURGER KING brand
ambassador."
Burger King Corporation is also an official sponsor of Diddy's fall
2006 cross-country CD tour. BURGER KING will be represented at all local
market events, including consumer listening parties and special appearances
by Diddy at high schools in select cities. The promotional tour will wrap
up on Oct. 16 with Diddy's return to his home base of New York City.
"I'm having it my way on this album, and it's been a great journey for
me, so I'm grateful for partners like Burger King Corporation that are
helping me bring a fresh sound to my fans," said Diddy. "They share my
passion for being tastemakers and giving the people what they want."
Update: This was for a potential remix that would have featured Cassie, but it will not be happening. So, this is likely all that we will hear of it.
In the video below, you see Ryan Leslie working in the studio. The track playing is "Come to Me", but it has a different beat. Could it be a remix?
From
I4U News:
The artist known these days as just Diddy provides an exclusive track from his upcoming new album Press Play exclusively for the launch of the Best Buy digital music store.

Breath of Fresh Ink.com has posted pictures of Christina Aguilera from the "Tell Me" set, supposedly. Can't be 100%, of course.

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has reportedly told Rooney and Ferdinand that they are not allowed to attend the awards ceremony at the Bella Center in Copenhagen, despite the team being in the Danish capital on November 1 for a Champions League clash against FC Copenhagen.
Diddy had invited them to the ceremony, according to the article.
