...showcases (or maybe invents) the conscious side of Diddy, enhanced by the ever-insightful rhymes of Nas. Diddy also highlights his vulnerabilities on several tracks, such as “Last Night.” In this duet with Keyshia Cole, Diddy makes his singing debut with a tender ballad. It’s crass, but also effective...

You certainly get some strange claims - like the contention of three economists that autism may be caused by watching too much television at a tender age.
