It’s no secret that at one point in time, Diddy’s production team, The Hitmen, which consisted of producers like Deric ‘D-Dot’ Angelettie, Mario Winans, and Steven Jordan (or Stevie J, depending on how much VH1 you watch) had music on lock, pumping out hit song after hit song. With the upcoming release of his new album MMM, or Money Making Mitch, Diddy recently took to Instagram to announce that he’s getting the band back together. 

The only difference, however, is the revamped version of The Hitmen will now see Kanye West as its newest member. 

 The Hitmen were already a crazy squad without Kanye. So it will be interesting to see what they cook up now that he’s on board.
