Red Cafe squads up the Bad Boy family for the visuals to the remix of "Let It Go." Check out the video below, which features Diddy, French Montana and 2 Chainz, and hit up the comments with your thoughts on the new regime!
When you think back to Bad Boy's lineup a few years ago, you will see that it's completely changed. Due to the rise of labels like YMCMB, Roc Nation, and MMG, Diddy took heed and restructured his empire. In a recent interview with DJ Envy, Cassie talked with him about Bad Boy's fresh roster and upcoming collaboration with Wild Boy MGK.
There's no question by now that Los is an amazing freestyler. He traveled to Toronto, spent a few dollars, and then gathered up the city for a 10+ minute cypher. Watch below as he rhymes over classic Hip Hop tracks, and go download up The Crown Ain't Safe if you haven't already!
MMG and Bad Boy link up once again as Meek Mill and Los are seen working in the studio in this new behind the scenes video. Meek Mill makes a quick, simple beat and the two go back and forth freestyling, proving why they're two of the best newcomers in the game.
I'm definitely not a fan of French Montana, but "Shot Caller" featuring Diddy and Rick Ross is the hottest song out right now. I give all the credit to Harry Fraud and the old school Bad Boy flips. Check out the video below, which French premiered on 106 & Park last night.
Los is showing everybody why Diddy signed him to Bad Boy Records on this recent LA Leakers Freestyle. Watch below as the Baltimore emcee gives you 10 minutes of completely off the dome freestyling. Now this is what I love to see.
Cassie is officially making her return to music with her new dance single "King Of Hearts" after a six year hiatus. Just days after releasing the single, the video is already ready to go. Strategic? I think so. No complaints here!
After nearly 6 years, Bad Boy singer Cassie is finally ready to make her return to music with her upcoming second album, Electro Love . Check out her uptempo new single "King Of Hearts" below, which is sure to be a hit in dance clubs, and hit the jump to see the song's video trailer and to watch her reaction when she first heard the pop song on the radio!
FINALLY someone took notice of Los's skills and gave that man a record deal!
During the "Shot Caller" video shoot, Sway stopped through and got the exclusive announcement from Diddy that the Baltimore emcee has joined the ranks of the Bad Boy revolution, which boasts a roster including Red Cafe, French Montana, Machine Gun Kelly, and Cassie. Let's see how things shape up!
UPDATE: Feb. 8, 2:24 PM
Diddy and Los officially announce the Bad Boy deal in true Diddy fashion. Watch below as his advance money sits on a pool table surrounded by Ciroc.
Winning the Super Bowl has a lot of perks. Free gear, championship rings, bragging rights, late night show appearances, and the best--theme music. French Montana's "Shot Caller" is a NY party anthem so it's only right that he did a remix exclusively for the Super Bowl XLVI champs.

So I've been learning to DJ for about 6 months now, and I finally made a mashup that I can post in confidence. "Shot Caller" is easily one of the hottest songs out, and it's probably because it brings the old school Bad Boy feel back. To really give it that "Take That, Take That" circa 1999 touch, check out what I did!
Red Cafe brought out the #MoneyTeam for his latest music video to "Keep Ballin," his Hells Kitchenode to Miami living. You know the deal. Ciroc, women, yachts...
Rick Ross took his show on the road to L.A. to perform tracks from his pre-album mixtape Rich Foreverfor the first time. Watch below as French Montana joins him on stage to perform "Stay Schemin," and hit the jump to see Mr. UHN! perform "Holy Ghost!"
Red Cafe has been killing the mixtape circuit for years now, but this is probably the last one we're going to get before the Bad Boy releases his debut album. Enjoy the 20 track long mixtape Hells Kitchen which features the emcee going bar for bar with rappers like Fabolous, 2 Chainz, Wale, Cory Gunz, Fat Trel, Meek Mill and more! Full tracklisting below, and download after the jump!
Diddy's probably one of the most successful executives that music has ever seen. With success comes reputation, however, and Diddy is finally addressing the so-called Bad Boy curse. Listen below as he talks with DJ Whoo Kid on his radio show and addresses the "dark cloud" that seems to hang over his label.
“You know over the last couple of years there's been a strong propaganda movement, umm, that has been brewing, like, in the negative sense, against Bad Boy. Against what it is to sign to the Bad Boy label. Is it a detriment to your career?”
Clearly I wasn't included in the mass e-mail asking everyone with a pulse to rap over "The Motto." Bad Boy emcee Red Cafe was though! Check out his new music video over the T-Minus beat below, and let me know how his freestyle compares over the original!
Red Cafe kept it in the Money Team and linked up with his boss for the club joint "Let It Go." Red Cafe's got a lot of projects coming out soon, including his debut album, which is expected to drop in February 2012. Listen to "Let It Go," below and hit the jump to watch clips from his interview with Sway on RapFix Live last week!
Maybe I'm getting to old at 22 and don't understand the terms that the youngins use nowadays, but Machine Gun Kelly is "LTFU" in this new video to his Daft Punk sampled track from his latest project Rage Pack.
Red Cafe's single "Fly Together" has been getting consistent radio play, and now we have visuals to go along with the Rick Ross & Ryan Leslie featured track. Check out the action packed video directed by Colin Tilley below!
I haven't been able to understand the hype surrounding Machine Gun Kelly, but now I have a body of work to hear to fully develop my opinion. Check out Rage Pack, the first mixtape from MGK since he signed to Bad Boy Records, and let me know if you're feeling him!!
