Diddy Offers Drake ‘Dirty Money’
AUDIO By J. Tinsley on November 13, 2009 at 12:24 pm
With rumors circulating more than the H1N1 strain, I’m not sure if and when Diddy’s Last Train To Paris will ever leave the station. Thing is, that “Dirty Money” ensemble he formed wasn’t half bad, at least this track wasn’t. Sean likely wanted to hold on to his Drake assisted cut, “Hurt (Loving You No More)”, but the powers that be saw fit otherwise. Puff and his Dirty Money crew harmonize over this smooth instrumental that’ll likely have the hook stuck in your head long after the song concludes. However, it’s Aubrey who comes through with an impressive guest verse.
“Uh, tryin’ not to think
Only cause I drove and I had a lot to drink
When I wanted it blue
You said we had to paint it pink
And it’s pieces of your hair still sittin’ in my sink
And you still got underwear that sittin’ in the dryer
How come everytime that you’re suspicious I’m a liar?
You stand out, I can hear you whistle in a choir
And that’s the only reason you the misses I admire.”
It’s easy for me to say, “this should have been the single”, but this really should have been the single. That’s water under the bridge though. Regardless, as 2009 and the decade draws closer and closer to the end, the Hip-Hop world awaits the debut album from the Toronto thespian-turnt-rapper. Call him generic, call him over saturated, but, for the most part, he makes some pretty damn good music. “Rookie” or vet. Thank Me Later has the potential one of the better debut albums in a long while based on one definitive factor: Drake’s ability to make a quality song.
And that, my friends, isn’t as easy as you might think.

I have to admit so far I have been wrong about this Dirty money project. The songs that have come out have been good. No more calling DM Idle Warship lite. lol
I dunno-that 1st track w/ That Jay Beat and Biggie chop sucked
yeah 1st one sucked, the one with the jay vocal sample is tight. And I heard the Tupac jack is going to be incredible.
song is fish grease
LMAO. MZ roasted that “Angels” track. I still remember that post.
Drake’s verse = Meh.
And it’s pieces of your hair still sittin’ in my sink

Ewww….
^ lol
My dude called from jail tombout “that Dirty Money shit is hot yo.”
I had no idea what he was talking about.
Am I missing something?
Cats front but Press Play was pretty dope. The best songs on that album were towards the back end of the album, with Mary J. Blige, Brandy & Keyshia Cole. This Dirty Money group is an extension of that.
As much shit as Diddy gets, I’m actually looking forward to Last Train To Paris.
^
yup
Amp:
You are right press play was a good album; but Puff will remind us that he is the devil when he does the other 2 victims/members of Dirty Money Dirty. lol
