Mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs has announced the released date and name of his sixth LP, which is titled Last Train To Paris.
Combs described Last Train To Paris as “Electro-Hip-Hop Soul Funk,” which will usher in a new movement called “train music.”
“Last Train To Paris is deeper than any of the other stuff I have ever made, it’s a profound love story,” Combs explained to AllHipHop.com in a statement. “It’s me with my shades off. It’s the truth.”
The album is the follow-up to Combs’ last solo album Press Play, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 upon its release in October of 2006.
Since last solo release, Combs has been involved in a number of projects, from launching new TV shows with MTV (Making the Band, Run’s House), movies (Notorious) to introducing new fragrances (I Am King) and clothing lines from his Sean John fashion empire.
“I’ve been a businessman for the past two years, it’s time for me to focus on being an artist again,” Combs said of his return to rap. “I am going to show the world a new refreshing side of me. Get on or get off!”
Last Train To Paris will feature production by Tricky, The Neptunes, The Dream, Rodney Jerkins, Mario Winans and hit maker T-Pain.
Last Train To Paris is due in stores September 22.
