AskMen.com's Peter Schwartz spoke with Diddy about what the perfect night out looks like. Check out the clip below.

Following the first two excerpts posted online from Diddy's cover feature in the June issue of XXL, XXLmag.com has a large portion of the piece available on their website.

Janelle Monae is one of the artists currently featured on Fuse's Incoming!. According to the site, "Incoming! brings you a selection of artists that come with Fuse's highest recommendation."

On Saturday, I reported that a music video was on the way for "All I Do is Win (Remix)" by DJ Khaled featuring Rick Ross, Busta Rhymes, Diddy, Nicki Minaj, Fabolous, Jadakiss, Fat Joe, Swizz Beatz and T-Pain.

The video isn't out yet, but MTV News reports that Khaled is comparing it to the iconic music video for Craig Mack's "Flava in Ya Ear (Remix)." That track featured The Notorious B.I.G., Busta Rhymes, Rampage, LL Cool J and ad-libs from Diddy.

"I know this is hard to say these type of things, but there's only one remix video I know that was exciting like this and it was called 'Flava in Ya Ear,'" he said.

Listen to Khaled talk about the video and the crew's exploits this weekend.

On Twitter, Diddy said he'd be appearing on BET's 106 & Park on Thursday. The show starts at 6 PM ET.

Bad Boy A&R; head Daniel "Skid" Mitchell recently appeared on The Syndicate for an interview ranging from Bad Boy label issues to relationships. We'll focus on the Bad Boy aspects.

He was asked the old lazy standby question about past Bad Boy artists and how many of them did not release an album or achieve a large measure of success. I thought he handled it well, his answers mirroring things I've said here at Bad Boy Blog many times. In summation, Diddy gives people an opportunity and he'll be loyal to you, but to be successful, you have to work. There are many reasons artists are not successful or they get shelved and it happens at other labels.

He was also asked about the Bad Boy/Atlantic situation and he said that Bad Boy is "loosely related to some of the artists that were on the previous situation." He specifically named the Janelle Monae and Day26 projects and said "that's mostly it for what we're doing over there."

Regarding Black Rob, Mitchell said that both sides are talking back and forth and that Rob was at Daddy's House, the Bad Boy-owned recording studio, the second day he was out of prison.
