Diddy's Million More Movement, Find hot Bad Boy trax in "Getting Up", and Hurricane Relief.

Diddy Supports Million More Movement

Diddy, Kanye West, Snoop Dogg, Queen Latifah and a star-studded list of other celebrities are helping endorse the upcoming Millions More Movement on October 15. The stars will help galvanize the movement which is being orchestrated by national organizations including Minister Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam, and Bruce Gordon and the NAACP. The movement, intended to empower America's poor and disenfranchised, will take place on the 10th anniversary of the Million Man March, on the National Mall in Washington D.C. The movement will focus on mobilizing men, women and youth into an effective national movement with the goal of eliminating poverty and injustice in American society. Organizers of the movement hope to help poor people learn to help themselves, beginning with the knowledge that there is strength in numbers.

Combs grabs Fashion Honor

Hip hop mogul and fashion designer Sean "Diddy" Combs  will pick up a fashion award from the 2005 Annual Accessories Awards. He will be given the Fashion Influencer award at the event in New York on November 8th. The ACE awards honors individuals and companies who have raised the awareness of use of accessories. American designer Kenneth Cole is to receive the prestigious Hall of Fame award for his contribution and influence to fashion.  Other celebrities to receive awards include Mary - Kate and Ashley Olson, and Jessica Simpson who will receive the fashion icon award.

Diddy and others help Hurricane Victims: Survivors of Hurricane Katrina received a day of pampering and entertainment, care of artists like Diddy, Jermaine Dupri and Gladys Knight. More than 2,000 survivors from local Atlanta Red Cross shelters attended a "Recycling Inspiration Weekend," sponsored by the Terrie Williams Agency, which will include a relief concert, that took place October 2, 2005.

The Diddy, Marley puffing together

Reggae star Damian Marley felt no disappointment when Sean 'Diddy' Combs failed to order his trademark Cristal champagne when they met in Miami, Florida, for the first time - because they shared some green (marijuana)  instead.

The Reggae hit maker  felt much more at home enjoying a joint with rap impresario Diddy because, as a Rastafarian, Marley smokes the potent herb as part of his religion. And he is convinced the Bad Boy boss was no newcomer to the drug.

Marley went on to say, "We didn't drink Cristal. But we were puffing… We were puffing up with Puffy! I don't think it was his first time... No, I'm sure it wasn't his first time."

Diddy produces takes in latest video game

The Limited Edition and the soundtrack for Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure feature four tracks executively co-produced by Sean 'Diddy' Combs, including an exclusive version of Notorious B.I.G.'s "Who Shot Ya," remixed by Serj from the band System of a Down. Other Diddy-produced tracks include "Clik, Clak, and Spray" from Pack FM, "Book of Judges" from Pharoahe Monch and "Getting Up Anthem: Part 1," performed by Talib Kweli, the voice of the game's lead character, Trane, and legendary Hip-Hop artist Rakim.

Commenting on the lineup, Marc Ecko, executive creative director for Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure, stated, "For a game so deeply rooted in the history and culture of graffiti, we knew that the soundtrack would be integral to the story's development. I couldn't think of a better partner than Diddy to assist in bringing the music to life, offering his insight and enthusiasm to the development process while navigating the complexities of the music industry to assemble this remarkable collection of talent."

"When Marc first presented this opportunity to me last year, I was blown away by the passion and depth of his script and knew that we could do something groundbreaking with the music. While the use of original tracks as narrative tools are quite common in film, this project has raised the bar for the future of in-game music," added Sean "Diddy" Combs.

"Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure is a collaboration where no effort was spared in working with the top talent on every dimension," said Marc Metis, Senior Vice President Marketing, Atari. "Through the creative input of such innovators as Marc Ecko and Sean 'Diddy' Combs, Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure stands to be one of the most unique and original games introduced this year."

In addition to the Combs-produced tracks, the Marc Ecko's Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure soundtrack features an eclectic array of original and licensed music. RJD2, who recently won the PLUG "DJ Album of the Year" award, has composed the in-game music. The RZA, the critically acclaimed leader of Wu-Tang Clan, is composing an exclusive remix for one of the game's cinematic videos. DJ Nature, a notable club DJ, has contributed several original tracks for the game. Other licensed music on the soundtrack includes:
