Press Play celebrates the Hip-Hop formula, not the Hip-Hop craft.  Full text...

This is the first long player we've had from Sean Combs for some time - five years in fact. Since The Saga Continues he's been fighting a tough musical battle, completing but not releasing a gospel album and embarking on an unsuccessful venture into house music that initially rocked the Miami music conference in 2003 but had little impact above ground. And the less said about his move into the world of fragrance, the better!  Full text...

Still, thanks to his hunger and drive, Press Play is the first Diddy disc that compels us to press replay.  Full text...


Dotmusic Rating: 7.0

Saying P Diddy is a unique individual is putting it politely. At once influential and laughable, a new album from the man who took hip hop from the streets and made it America's biggest selling commodity is always going to be a big deal. Just not always for the right reasons. Let's not forget, Diddy reinvented hip hop from behind a desk, as CEO of Bad Boy Entertainment.   Full text...


Slant Magazine Rating: 6.0

Press Play is the, ahem, artist's best album since 1997's No Way Out, and it's an easier listen that one might expect.  Full text...


RollingStone Rating: 5.0

Press Play is a product of Diddy’s vision for a forward-thinking hip-hop record that tosses in lots of R&B and flashes of techno.  Full text...


HipHopDX Rating: 5.0

Blessed with more cash than talent, Diddy buys his albums more than he makes them. It is no secret, he even once wrote (or had written for him of course), "don't matter if I write rhymes, I write checks." That's cool, I respect Puff for his business acumen, not for his flows.  Full text...


StylusMagazine Rating: 4.2

Press Play is like an episode of My Super Sweet 16: though lavishly decorated and probably an honor to be invited to, there's a megalomaniacal presence that ensures the whole party is about glorification of ego rather than actual fun.   Full text...


Times Online Rating: 4.0

Boasting cameos from Blige, Brandy, Nas and Christina Aguilera, Press Play might have cost millions, but the problem remains — Diddy seems reluctant to obscure his rubbish rapping by using it to say anything interesting.  Full text...


CokeMachineGlow Rating: 3.5

Granted, thanks to the kind of company Mr. Combs' platinum chain reels in, almost half of these tracks have some modest amount of entertainment value to them, but all the Just Blazes and Rich Harrisons and Big Bois and Pharoahes and Kanyes and Nasirs in the world can't cover the Proactiv-shiny mug up front, the shifty but proudly brand-name-not-person-name emblazoned on the border, the voice that bumbles through every song -- the voice that, no matter how much it tries to assimilate the art of its betters, still can't rap worth a shit and has (due to the well-published character of its speaker) reverse Midas touch on anything of worth it might have commissioned from real poets.  Full text...

Wow! dude, this song is great but doesn't even compare to Kevin Federline's hit single.


addicted2muisq Rating: 6.0

Diddy CD was well produced, but I wonder how good his songs will be without guest perfomances


C@ndy Gur1 Rating: 3.0

you know what diddy, i heard the other single that you came out with and wasn't feekin it at all. i must say it was horrible. but the song with the girl from the pussycat dolls come to me, was the club bangger hit and i was really feeling that song very much.i haven't gotten your cd yet but when i get it, ill be back telling you about how i feel about the album. but hope you come out with a better song then that new one you just dropped.best of luck ya gurl :(:):(:)


Jacquez Orr Rating: 10.0

Kudos to you Diddy! This album has a sultry twist of R&B, techno and hip-hop. This is definitely an album to beat this year. He has stepped his game up and shown everyone that he is more than a businessman. He helped bring hip-hop to life and on Press Play, he shown eveyone who he really is. WATCH OUT FO DIDDY! IT'S DEFINITELY BAD BOY FOR LIFE!


carolina Bonnet Rating: 10.0

This year diddy really did it!!! he made a complete knock out. This album was great. he had Keishia cole and Christina Augilera. oh my god i really love P.Diddy. Press Play was the #1 hit.


Amber Williams Rating: 9.0

I really liked all the songs. It's really different from anything he's ever done.The vocalist who did the songs with him are really talented and give the songs more rhythm. He really did come back harder and with something new!


Glynis Rating: 10.0

This album is a non stop banger from beginning to end . Just Press Play and enjoy. You really will. This Album/CD is so HOT!


Shayla Grimsley Rating: 10.0

I love Diddy's album. It's the sound of a hard working man and a man who is in LOVE! Different and very mature yet still very DIDDY! It's hot! I can listen to it staight, no song skiping!


Justin Marsh Rating: 5.0

I respect Diddy for doing an albulm at this point of his career, but when I heard this albulm, he sounds mediocre.


RamuC Rating: 3.0

Diddy you rock. I thougt your album would not bang after a short break. Come to me with Nicole is the one. Its really bad boy for life!


Mesha Rating: 10.0

I give his ENTIRE CD a TEN b/c I love how he put rap and r&b together =) I Love the songs with Christina and my FAVORITE song #17 the one with Keyshia Cole!!! IM LOVING IT!!!!!

This album would be more aptly named "Press Stop"


Dec-kool de don Rating: 10.0

Diddy u really did good.im really feeling ya esp. that joint ft. Nicole Sherzinger of the PCD.u re definitely hot Boss!!!


... Rating: 1.0

there are only a couple of good songs on this album, but in almost all of them he leeches of the talent of other artists to make them good (with poor results most of the time). I wonder if they'd be anywhere near as good (not that they're good in the first place!) if they didn't feature other artists so much.


Shells Rating: 10.0

Forget all that other stuff your so called fans are talking about. I love this album, especially number 5 w/ the children singing! I know your doin' yo thang and I appreciate the fact that you didn't stop making music because you have a family now. The best of luck to you and your family!


genesys Rating: 10.0

The lyrics were perfect just how i excepeted good job staff of az lyrics.


Shermaine Rating: 1.0

His Cd was butt. Tell Me is the ONLY song I listen to. Every other song has someone else singing. It should have been called "Diddy & Everybody else". I will press stop.


sasha Rating: 7.0

I like the cd is not that bad.I would have to saay that i don't some of songs in the album, its a right!


Marqis Rating: 0.0

You gotta be shiting me right?This albulm is trash.All these good artists on the albulm and it still sucked.I lost a lot of respect for Diddy.


ruth Rating: 6.0

well.. it has really good beats like "last night", but the lyrics.. i dunno, he has style,i cant deny! but its bad boy bitch? he's ego is too high. hip-hop its only bitches and that crap. in various songs diddy talks about sex, nothing new.


Kristie Walker Rating: 9.0

I'm really feeling that LAST Night that's hot with you and Keyshia Cole she did that.. Diddy you know that's a hit................


oko Rating: 8.0

Some of his songs were good...but most of the tracks were just about his girl...I think he shoulda just made one copy and given it to his girl instead of making it his latest album...


J.Devo Rating: 10.0

This album should be praised not dissed. All you haters dont realise what he has done for the industry. Lovin the album Diddy

Bad boy for life


I CANT HEAR Rating: 0.0

THIS CD SUCKS!!!! I only liked last night. But besides that it sucks i returned it n got biggies greatest hit instead.At least some1 in badboy could still hold shit down


kimmie Rating: 9.0

fl@v@ fl@v junior Rating: 7.0

i did like the the cd but my favarite song is lastnight wit keyshia cole. keep doing your thing diddy.


Straight up Rating: 1.0

this album was garbage.diddy was never a good artist unless he was on a track with biggie. the only good parts of the album was when other people were singing. It sounds like music that was made in someone's garage.


Sam Rating: 1.0

diddy at his worst. its a shame really that he's promoting this more than danity kane. their album is great through and through, and this one. . .just isnt. 2 good songs, thats not enough to "take over the world", diddy. *shakes head*


Hasham Rating: 4.0
