Making His Band: Diddy Talking To Andre About His Album's Direction

In this clip Diddy talks to Andre about that Last Train To Paris album.

I see they had the conversation in one of those Hollywood Roosevelt suites.

Making His Band: Keyboard Players Learn Their Excercises

If you watched last night's episode of Making His Band, you might not know what had the keyboard player with the "faux hawk" (Mike) hating on the drummer...this is what started it.

It's kind of slick how he got my man kicked out of the house...then took his spot as a drummer.

Obviously he was in over his head and wanted to switch to an instrument he could play, but, needed to get Kristopher out of his way first.

Although Kristopher should have practiced more, the same holds true for Mike...he didn't get on the stage and do anyone any favors...including himself.

UPDATE: See the video for Dirty Money's "Angels" directed by Hype Williams

This is that joint you see Puff working on in the show "Making His Band".

It would have been ill to have Raekwon drop a few verses on this joint. Right now, you don't have too many other cats who could make this track officially street like Rae.

Making His Band: Diddy Working On "Last Train To Paris"

Making His Band - Mondays @ 10pm on MTV

This is more realistic than any of the previous "Making The Band" shows.

Look at these clips and see for yourself.

Puff allowing himself to be seen in the process of creating his success is what makes this show good television. In the past he walked in, told some dude he was cancelled and walked out. This time he IS a part of the show.

Puff training his voice:

Bonus clip: Puff cutting vocals

Making His Band: Clips From Last Night's Season Opener

Catch this show...it's looking much better than any of the previous seasons.

The talent is better and the personalities of those selecting the talent add to the entertainment value of the show.

As per usual, you can count on humor, drama and the heartbreak of being cut - let's hope the fights are kept to a minimum(that ish isn't music related).

I caught that shot of Puff going over to The Hollywood Roosevelt to visit Andre Harrell - shouts to my man Romano over @ the Roosevelt-(what up Dave).

I like the move to L.A. it gives the show a different and needed visual backdrop.

Diddy's back!

This time he is assembling an actual band to help him put that "Last Train To Paris" album together.

You know the drill...he will search a variety of places, looking for the best singers and musicians to help him create this album.

As they search the country for talent, the viewer will be allowed to see Puff preparing for this album - selecting songs, conducting meetings, practicing choreography.

It's a few weeks away.
