Sean Combs - rapper, producer, mogul, the richest man in hip-hop - has changed his name for approximately the 19th time.

That may be an overestimation but the man most commonly known as Diddy has decided to change his stage name to, the very surreal, Love.

Love first revealed his latest identity last November on social media but later dismissed it by saying it was a joke, although he has now confirmed the name change is really happening.

[Diddy:]
Can you feel me
Do that shit do that shit do it
Do that shit do that shit do it
Do that shit do that shit do it
Do that shit do that shit do it
Ooh yeah

That dance floor shit
Yeah yeah yeah
Lets play a game
On the dance floor
(Oh yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah

Let's play a game
Let's pretend for a second
You don't know who I am or what I do
Let's just put it to the side (c'mon)
I can feel your heart beating
I can hear you breathing
Look into your eyes
Trying to see into your mind
See into your soul
See, no limits to the levels
Me and you can go
When it's me, I take control
But it's something about you
That makes me wanna change

I like the way you dancing
And the way you play the game
I like the way you take away the pain
The way you tell me that you want it
Not saying a thing

The way you got me going
Got me going outta my brain
I see us going at it
Going in and out of them lanes
I don't want your innocence
I don't want you to stutter
I don't want a commitment and
I don't want you to suffer
I don't want your number
Baby, I want you to wonder
I want you to come up
Looking like it's something you wanna

[Christina Aguilera:]
Tell me, what you thinking about
When you got me waiting patiently
And usually, I don't have to wait for nobody
But there's something about you
That really got me feeling weak
And I'm trying to find the words to speak
Boy, I got my eyes on you
Tell me what you wanna do

I can picture you in my room
Until the morning
I don't even know your name
Boy, I need to know your name
I'm hoping that you feel the same

[Hook]
Tell me if you want it
I know you're gonna like it (I know)
So tell me how you want it (Tell me)
And you don't have to fight it (You don't)
Cause baby you're invited (Baby)
I know you're gonna like it (I know)
So tell me how you want it (Tell me)
And you don't have to fight it (You don't)
Cause baby you're invited (Baby)

[Diddy:]
You're dreams fullfilled
You're rockin with the best
Unforgivable I'ma put your limits to the test
You're pulsating, your heart is beating outta your chest
You're hyperventilating, trying to catch your breath
(Don't stop)

I'm the first, I'm the next, I'm the end
I'm the boss, in your thoughts, that'll make your mind bend
Look how I approach you, look how I expose you
Look how I done studied every move, now I know you
I don't wanna control you, I wanna console you
And do everything that I told you
Get high with me, come touch the sky with me
Fly with me, see life with new eyes with me
(Don't stop)

I'm the dream, I'm the one, I'm the reason you come
I'm a king, I'm a hung, I'm a beast
I'm the last thing your eyes see
The passion's inside me, it's yours
Now come try me, c'mon

[Christina Aguilera:]
Tell me, what you thinking about
When your hands is all on me
Cause I've been thinking about
All the possibilities
Ain't no other place that I really wanna be
Cause you're sweepin' me off my feet
Boy, I got my eyes on you
Tell me what you wanna do

I can picture you in my room
Until the morning
I don't even know your name
Boy, I need to know your name
I'm hoping that you feel the same
Tell me if you want it

[Hook]
I know you're gonna like it (I know)
So tell me how you want it (Tell me)
And you don't have to fight it (You don't)
Cause baby you're invited (Baby)
I know you're gonna like it (I know)
So tell me how you want it (Tell me)
And you don't have to fight it (Baby you're invited)
Cause baby you're invited (yeah!)

[Christina Aguilera: (Bridge)]
I got a selection of the positions of affection
With no pressure
So tell me,
Tell me how you want it, tell me how you want it babe
I got a selection of the positions of affection
With no pressure

So tell me
Tell me how you want it
Tell me how you want it babe
Do that shit do that shit do it
Do that shit do that shit do it
Do that shit do that shit do it
Do that shit do that shit do it do it do it do it

Speaking to Jimmy Kimmel on his late-night chat show, Puff Daddy, sorry, Diddy, sorry, Love said he has "retracted the retraction".

“I never went back to Diddy and I made an edit from Brother Love, since I’m already black, to just Love,” he told Kimmel. “The Brother seemed redundant. And it’s working out great. Who doesn’t love Love?”

This is a fair assessment, but what if someone slips up? Well, he says we "can call [him] by the other names. It’s just an evolution of my soul and my vibration."

To put it plain and simple, he explained, "I’m Diddy, but during the days that are really, really good, I’m Love – which is all of the time.”

From Puff Daddy to Puff to Puffy to P. Diddy to Diddy to Diddy - Dirty Money then back to Puff Daddy and now to Love, we definitely have love for this legend whatever his name of choice is at the time.

I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tell the World I'm coming home
Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
Tell the World that I'm coming

Back where I belong, yeah I never felt so strong
(I'm back baby)
I feel like there's nothing that I can't try
And if you with me put your hands high
(put your hands high)
If you ever lost a light before, this ones for you
And you, the dreams are for you
I hear "The Tears of a Clown"
I hate that song

I feel like they talking to me when it comes on

Another day another Dawn
Another Keisha, nice to meet ya, get the math I'm gone
What am I 'posed to do when the club lights come on
Its easy to be Puff, its harder to be Sean
What if the twins ask why I aint marry their mom (why, damn!)
How do I respond?
What if my son stares with a face like my own
And says he wants to be like me when he's grown
Sh-t! But I aint finished growing
Another night the inevitible prolongs
Another day another Dawn
Just tell Taneka and Taresha I'll be better in the morn'
Another lie that I carry on
I need to get back to the place I belong
I'm coming home

I'm coming home
Tell the World I'm coming home

Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
Tell the World that I'm coming

"A house is Not a Home", I hate this song
Is a house really a home when your loved ones are gone
And n-ggas got the nerve to blame you for it

And you know you woulda took the bullet if you saw it
But you felt it and still feel it
And money can't make up for it or conceal it
But you deal with it and you keep ballin'
Pour out some liquor, play ball and we keep ballin'
Baby we've been living in sin 'cause we've been really in love
But we've been living as friends
So you've been a guest in your own home
It's time to make your house your home

Pick up your phone, come on
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tell the World I'm coming home

Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes

I'm coming home, I'm coming home
Tell the World that I'm coming
"Ain't No Stopping Us Now", I love that song
Whenever it comes on it makes me feel strong
I thought I told y'all that we won't stop

We back cruising through Harlem, Viso blocks
It's what made me, saved me, drove me crazy
Drove me away than embraced me
Forgave me for all of my shortcomings
Welcome to my homecoming
Yeah it's been a long time coming
Lot of fights, lot of scars, lot of bottles
Lot of cars, lot of ups, lot of downs
Made it back, lost my dog (I miss you BIG)
And here I stand, a better man! (a better man)
Thankyou Lord (Thankyou Lord)
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Tell the World I'm coming home
Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they've forgiven my mistakes
I'm coming home, I'm coming home
Tell the World that I'm coming
