Rapper Diddy is many things, it has often been said, but shy about speaking of his own music he is not. As a matter of fact, Diddy is right up there with Kanye West when it comes to promoting his own albums, a thing for which fans can only be grateful – and all the more so since the rapper has already started hyping his upcoming “Last Train to Paris” material, which drops only in September 2009.

Speaking with Rolling Stone, Diddy says that the new material will be so groundbreaking that it will virtually usher a new type of music, a cultural movement, if you will, called “train music.” In what does this “train music” differ from other genres, Diddy does not say but, from his own words, the album will be a one-of-a-kind experience for all those who will go out and buy it come September 22.

“‘Last Train to Paris’ is deeper than any of the other stuff I have ever made. It’s a profound love story. It’s me with my shades off. It’s the truth.” Diddy says of the material he also describes as an “electro hip-hop soul funk” one. “I’ve been a businessman for the past two years. It’s time for me to focus on being an artist again. I am going to show the world a new refreshing side of me. Get on or get off!” the rapper adds.

But that will not be all that “Last Train to Paris” will bring new to the scene. As the rapper tells MTV, a movie too will accompany it, so that fans will get double the pleasure at the same price, at they say. This will, the rapper assures fans, make enjoying his music all the more unforgetable, as both the eyes and the ears will take on his latest tracks.

“A movie is going to be shot to it too. It’s definitely going to be an album you can seamlessly see. Not after the fact. When you get the album on that day, September 22, you will be able to see the whole album on your computer. I go into production of the movie in May.” Diddy reveals to MTV.

“Last Train to Paris,” the follow-up to Diddy’s successful “Press Play,” is scheduled to drop in music stores on September 22.
