"Press Play is based on all my musical experiences, from the Uptown era, when I was working with Jodeci, Mary J. Blige, and Heavy D to the Biggie,112, Mase, Total, and No Way Out era,” says Diddy. “As time evolved, and I started traveling around the world and going into dance and techno clubs, I began to see music from a global point of view. It all came together on Press Play all those sounds in my head. I’ve evolved, studied the game, been a part of it, had success. It all comes down to press play. After you press play, it’s gonna make or break you in this game.”

Press Play comes nearly a decade after Diddy released his first solo project, the #1, seven-times RIAA platinum No Way Out which earned Grammy Awards for Best Rap Album and Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group for “I’ll Be Missing You.” In 2004, he earned his third Grammy Award as an artist, for “Shake Ya Tailfeather,” with Nelly and Murphy Lee, from the Bad Boys II soundtrack, which he also executive produced.
