Diddy-Dirty Money - Coming Home
Artist: Diddy-Dirty Money
Featuring: Skylar Grey
Producer: Alex Da Kid, co-prod. Jay-Z
Album: Last Train to Paris
Label: Bad Boy/Interscope
For all his success, Sean Combs can create some bad music. Today we have a potential new single from Diddy (technically Dirty Money), Coming Home, featuring Skylar Grey and I have to be honest; in the words of Nicki Minaj, this track looks like no, but had the potential to look like yes. Jay-Z wrote and co-produced for the record while Alex Da Kid came through on the production - even though it sounds like Maino‘s All the Above mixed with a future T.I.-please-forgive-me song - and Skylar’s vocals are also decent as she provides an airy serenade for the hook. Unfortunately, Diddy’s rapping just feels lifeless and flat. Even though the leaked J. Cole version was only a reference track, it’s better because there’s a truly dope rapper on it. Plus, I’m just wondering how this could be a real Dirty Money song, as Kalenna and Dawn are seemingly nowhere to be found. The group’s proposed date for their long-delayed album Last Train to Paris is set, again, for December 14. If I’m way off on this one please tell me Booth members, but after Coming Home, I wouldn’t be upset if the train stalled in Lyons, France.

I admire Diddy's hustle and his success, but I question his decision to continue recording semi-rap music. Maybe if Biggie were here (I wish) we wouldn't still have this issue, but since he is resting in peace we get mediocre rhymes from a businessman.

Can't hate on this. The production and hook were top of the line. Diddy may not be the best rapper out there but he certainly knows how to put together a hit. I enjoyed the J. Cole version more but this is still an enjoyable listen and far beyond the quality I've come to expect from Puff.

Though any other rapper could of made this song better, anyone who's listened to J. Cole's version would agree, this still is good record. I love the hook and Alex's beat goes hard. Diddy is horrible but everything else about this is so strong, it makes the song still dope.

I do think any other rapper could have made this better, but Diddy did good on this, it could have harder.

I'm not going to throw Diddy under the bus by completely dissing him and saying that J.Cole's reference version was 10x better.....Oh wait....
In all honesty, I tried blocking the other version out and took this song for what it's worth. Bottom line -- this is a good and enjoyable song for Diddy's standards. |

Many other rappers would have topped charts with this (Em, T.I, B.o.B) but I don't think Diddy is up there with them. It's in rotation

It's apparently a little harder for me to overlook the fact that the guy who's voice you hear all over the track can't rap. At all. The beat's incredible, the hook's nice, if only Diddy didn't insist on rapping it'd be a hit.

This production is amazing, and granted Diddy isn't a great rapper he does a decent job for this track since the production carries this track anyway, and although J Cole's version was better this shouldn't be based on that.

I really like the hook, but Diddy didn’t do the song justice.

Dirty Money have released a new official remix of Hello Good Morning, this time featuring Skepta.
This will surely get the Album out on the date, as it is much better than the original |

I like the song but I think it's just okay with a nice hook.

Everything about this track is right...except for Diddy gracing the record with extremely mediocre lyrics. And I don't understand why get a guest singer (admittedly, she's good, oh and she also co-wrote 'Love the way you Lie') is doing the job, when there are two perfectly fine females in the group doing absolutely nothing....

Awesome beat, but P. Diddy is such a terrible rapper. Heck, J. Cole's version is so much better yet this one gets more publicity. I would've loved to see Eminem or B.o.B on this track. I only said those two because those two have had hit singles produced by Alex da Kid.

This is classic Diddy in my opinion, sure it isn't classic for some rappers out there, but for someone searcing for a place back in the game like diddy, he had some placid real lyrics. He doesn't spit hard AT ALL, but everyhting else in this song just works for me, I just hope he throws out the autotune and focuses more on his flow...

If this was any other rapper, this wouldn't have been as meaningful. This song, in Diddy's case represents him going back to his roots, and makes reference to the fact that he continues to think of how people's opinion would change of him if he was shot, not biggie. Diddy isn't the best rapper in the game, but overt criticism is not necessary.
