NEW ALBUM INFO! Diddy announces his new album 'Last Train To Paris'... and it drops THIS SEPTEMBER!!!



Rapper-mogul Diddy has revealed during the season premiere of Making The Band 4, that his upcoming record will be titled Last Train To Paris. Not much else is known about the album yet, but it's been revealed it will follow the autotune craze started by T-Pain & perfected by Kanye West. Earlier this month Diddy reaealed a few more tid bits on the new album, currently due for a September release.

"Right now, I'm working on my record, and it'll be out in the end of summer. It's feeling good. It's different. I'm creating a new sound. It doesn't sound like anybody else's stuff out there. With that comes a risk. I'm excited about the risk. I do have a beef a little bit with the game right now. I think hip-hop has lost its risk-taking quality. Everybody goes to the comfort zone. It doesn't have that risk anymore. You're not like, 'What is that?' when you hear that record anymore."

I really can't think of a more contrived or pretentious album title than Last Train To Paris. Coming from Diddy, it just feels like he's trying to think of something 'artsy' to try and steal Kanye West's thunder. It's quite ridiculous him going on about "creating a new sound", because I honestly feel this whole Paris er! a is goi ng to be nothing but swagga jackin' off Kanye.

Diddy's always been used to being the big boy on top, and now that Kanye is extremely successful as an artist, producer and fashion icon, Diddy wants to try steal his crown back. With that said though, I did really like his Press Play album, and I'll definitely check the new record out, it's just that I'm not going to be expecting anything too original or fresh.
