Posted: 28 Jan 2009 09:34 AM PST

The Dream has been working with Mariah Carey on her upcoming album, reportedly entitled "MC3" which will be her twelfth studio album. He spoke to DJ Skee's HD2 New Music Show on 102.7 KIIS FM to dish out some news on the project.

He's responsible for Mariah's hit single "Touch My Body" off of her 2008 album "E=MC²" which debuted at #1. This guy is amazing. He names some of the songs he worked on, and I was pleasantly surprised. This dude is great. Check out his interview below.

Here is a video of rapper, Sean "Diddy" Combs working on his album in the recording studio. The album is supposed to drop in September of 2009. He hasn't released a solo album since 2006, so this better be good. The whole album is also reportedly said to be in Auto-Tune. Something else we should look out for is a rumored collaboration with Danity Kane's Dawn Richard. The track he's listening to in the video sounds good. Check it out below!

Jay-Z Song “When The Money Goes” Leaks

Posted: 28 Jan 2009 09:14 AM PST

With the internet it seems to be getting harder and harder for producers to keep songs under wrap. "When The Money Goes" was leaked yesterday as Jay-Z's newest single. Whether or not it was for his album is still uncertain.

Jay-Z & Beyonce

According to MTV, the song features lyrics of friends asking each other if their girlfriend will stay when the money goes?

"When the money goes/ Will the honey stay/ When the gray skies replace the sunny days/ Heeeey."

Well with Jay-Z and Beyonce making over $80 million each last year, the couple is at par financially. So I highly doubt he is talking about himself.
