All aboard the Hip Hop express. Next stop, the top of Billboard charts?

Work has begun on Diddy's album Last Train To Paris and it looks like he is enlisting some heavy hitters to help make this album a success.

Now everyone know's that Diddy is not the kind of entertainer to take to the pen and paper to shell out a hit record. He likes to write checks instead of rhymes as said by himself in "Bad Boys For Life" (which wasn't written by him, but you get my drift).

We can expect high quality material from sir Diddy, because it has just been confirmed by Jay-Z himself that he is working on a song with Diddy, not in his words exactly. Last week, there was a track titled "Maybe" that leaked on the Internet that everyone thought was a single off of Jay's anticipated album Blueprint 3. After a lot of speculation about the track Jay confirmed with rapradar.com that the alleged track wasn't a song of his but more so a skeleton track/demo for Diddy.

The track has a very tropical airy sound and it looks like it comes with it's very own theme. I wonder what Diddy had to promise Jay to get him to write a song for him? Maybe we can expect to hear Diddy on Blueprint 3, that will be interesting. 

I have always wondered this one thing. If Beyonce is this really big artist and Diddy tends to work with the artist that is killing it on the charts at the moment, why haven't they done a song together? Maybe we can look forward to a Diddy and Beyonce song in the near future. With the inclusion of Jay as a songwriter I am a little excited for the other artists Diddy will let aboard his Last Train To Paris and also it's release.

Diddy's Last Train To Paris is due for a September 22nd release.
