Everyone is talking about Diddy slapping or punching Drake in his face yesterday. Everyone was saying it was over Cassie, then the reliable TMZ says:

Our sources say, producer Boi-1da had given both Diddy and Drake a song to record more than 8 months ago. We’re told Diddy sat on the song, which frustrated Drake because he wanted to record it. So recently Drake recorded the song on his own and it did well, which pissed Diddy off.

Diddy saw Drake at LIV Monday for the first time since the song was released. Sources close to Diddy say he confronted Drake, who just blew him off, and that’s when Diddy said, “You’ll never disrespect me again,” and then punched him.

That made me think: what song did Boi-1da produce that Diddy may have been considering getting on with Drake? Then it all made sense. Drake's latest song "How Bout Now?"

The song contains a Jodeci sample. Diddy worked at Uptown records (Jodeci's Record Label) when this record was released and he is good friends with ex-Uptown CEO Andre Harrell. Maybe was taking his time because he wanted to do the Jodeci sample justice.

Either way, going around punching rappers in the face is going to make Diddy a true legend.
