It's the EXACT SAME VERSION that they gave me on the demo that they submitted, with Fergie singing the song.

Yesterday, the co-writer/producer sent me a note saying the song is on Fergie's album but it's different from the version we did. All of our paperwork went through and was finalize., They were aware that Jordan would use the song as a single. We recorded the song and Fergie's management had a copy of it. When we purchased the song, we were told by the co-writer/producer and Fergie's management, that Fergie thought the song was "too immature" for her album and she felt she had better songs. Is this something that commonly happens ? I did a short interview with her to get the details behind the story. She is "extremely disappointed" with Fergie, producer Toby Gad and manager David Sonnenberg and co. I just spoke with Jordan McCoy's manager, Debbie Hammond, CEO of Clockwork Entertainment, about the Big Girls Don't Cry situation with Fergie. Diddy and Kim are working together again and Kanye is on the "Press Play" track that features Nas and Cee-Lo. The other is a beat produced by Havoc of Mobb Deep I was told it has eerie kids singing or something. Secondly, there is a song that has Twista and Shawnna spitting like they have a mouth of madness. First, the song with Diddy, Nas, Cee-Lo and Kanye. Now, I have been informed that there are a few records the b-boys and b-girls need to check for.

Lil' Cease was also there - SIKE! From what I have been told, Diddy's album sounds like a winner. He even said he wanted to give her a better "Welcome Back" party. Lil' Kim also came through and Diddy informed the crowd that he and the QB would be doing some work together. They also sang "Happy Birthday" to Andre Harrell, the man that gave Diddy his first shot at Uptown Records. On the flip side, Diddy held a listening session last night and he commanded the crowd to sing "Happy Birthday" to the rapper.
