Diddy has uploaded another vlog on his YouTube Channel this time he’s speaking on Barack Obama’s democratic nomination in the ‘08 Presidential Election. I myself is so proud of this moment. For me, it’s not even about his ethnicity it’s about him as a person. He never veered away from scandals and rumors that was pinned on him during this process of becoming a nominee. Intelligent is not even the best word to describe this man. I cannot wait for this change. Obama for President!

ON CASSIE’S NEW SINGLE »
“That’s going to really, really catch people off guard,” he says. “There’s a huge [cry] out there for a younger Britney Spears, a younger Janet Jackson. Those two great artists have paved the way. She has a single out called ‘Official Girl’ and Danja produced it, and it is a smash.ON DEVELOPING CASSIE »
“I just don’t think she was ready,” Diddy says. “I think that we threw her into the spotlight without the artist development — that goes on with a lot of new artists. We pulled out, we took our time, we developed her for like, a year-and-a-half. People are just going to see her there and be like, ‘Wow, she’s really cocooned into a butterfly.’”
I’m not 100% sure if Diddy knows this or not, but April Fool’s is just one day, not the whole month! He can’t be serious! Can he? Nah, he couldn’t say that shit with a straight face if he tried… Joke’s on us, right? RIGHT?!

Diddy, CEO of Bad Boy Records, officially introduced one of the latest members of the family, Janelle Monae, to music industry insiders with a showcase in New York City Thursday night (Apr. 3rd).
“I’ve been blessed with artists like Jodeci, Notorious B.I.G. and Mary J. Blige in the past, but this artist right here … you’ve just got to see it to believe it. I don’t know if you ever felt the Holy Ghost, but that’s the only feeling you’re going to feel tonight,” Diddy said as he introduced Janelle Monae. “This is possibly the most important signing of my career,” Combs continued. “I thank God for blessing me with an artist like Janelle Monae. Now, are y’all ready to go to church?”
Let’s just hope and pray Diddy doesn’t “forget” about her, like he tends to do with his other artists. Y’all saw what happened with Danity Kane last year.

As you may know, new Bad Boy artist Donnie Klang debuted his brand new single Take You There featuring, as well as produced by, Diddy on Making The Band 4 Finale Season 2 and iTuines as well. I have to admit I wasn’t feeling the song at all that much. But I took into consideration that I got these cheap-ass headphones (cos my iPhones pop, I swear I can’t keep them for 2 months) that I can barely hear anything out of them! So I had to really give Donnie a chance second time around and I liked it a lot! Remind me of some Justin Timberlake/Prince/Usher/ Michael Jackson-type song … lol.

SIDENOTE: I gotta have one of those “No Bitchassness” tees! They’ve already hit The Bay! Oh, and for those of you sellers listing the shirt … Bitchassness is one word. To find it through the search, I had to type it in as “bitch ass ness.” The only reason it’s spelled that way on the shirt is because bitchassness is a long ass word. Thank you =)
