Diddy Signs Elephant Man To Bad Boy
right "Elephant Man is one the greatest entertainers in his genre of music. When I saw him at Madison
Square Garden ripping down the stage, I knew that he was the one. He will be a great addition to
our team,” Combs said via press release.
The new album is expected to feature Diddy, Rihanna, Busta Rhymes, Shaggy, Mya, Lil’ Jon and
fellow Bad Boy artist, Cassie. Elephant Man, born O’Neil Bryan, will also tour with Diddy as a
supporting act on his Press Play world tour beginning in February, 2007.
“Ya know, we are excited to work with P. Diddy, the vibes are there, and with this combo we are
gonna take dancehall to another level,” Elephant Man said of his new deal with Bad Boy. “I’m
looking forward to dropping (the album) and the promotion, cuz Diddy is creative, and with him and
the Energy God together
It’s gonna be madness!”
Elephant Man, a colleague of fellow dancehall powerhouse Bounty Killer, signed with VP Records in
2003. He crossed over into the pop mainstream with his hit single “Pon Di River” and collaborations
with The Ying Yang Twinz, Lil’ Jon, Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson, Twista, and others.
