Diddy Dumps Cassie?

Celeb hook ups are like firecrackers. They take off fast and give a nice pretty show but usually they die down quickly. It looks like the ‘relationship’ between Diddy and Cassie may be on it’s last spark. Honestly this thing lasted a lot longer than most, including me, expected.  The two have been rumored to be together for the better part of a year now as they are constantly seen together, and although they deny it publicly, some say Cassie’s hit “Official Girl”, was an ode to Diddy.

However lately the two have not been seen together and an insider hit me off with the tip this morning that Diddy feels Cassie wants much more than he is willing to offer and is giving her the walking papers. The source tells me Diddy has been trying to do it in the nice way, ya know just stop answering her calls and always make excuses to not spend time with her…but it’s not working. I am hearing Diddy is about to just break it to her bluntly and let her know he is done.

I wonder if this will affect her standing at Bad Boy? Honestly she’s a  bad chick but after she shaved half her head, I would have had to call it quits. Of course I’m sure Diddy will go back to his ole faithful, Kim Porter.

Def Jam Signing New Talent?

The record biz is fucked. There’s no doubt about it. Even superstars don’t draw people to the record stores anymore. However word is coming out from up top that the biggest label in the game is not lying down and is in fact aggressively seeking new talent to carry on their brand. Of course I’m talking about the house that Russell built, Def Jam.

Def Jam only has a few of the game’s top artists today and  word is they are trying to fix this. They are mainly looking in the south for their new superstar and are only looking for someone who they feel is ‘commercially marketable’, in other words you can’t be too fat or ugly.

So far I am hearing they haven’t found anyone who they feel is totally up to par and are continuing on their search. So when a new crop of southern stars pops up, remember where you heard it first and don’t be surprised.
