LISTEN up music lovers, Justin Timberlake has been reincarnated as a rapper.

The slinky singer, 29, airs his first-ever rhyme-spitting session on Diddy-Dirty Money’s debut album Last Train To Paris.

And hip-hop hero Diddy, who fronts the new band alongside singers Kalenna, 26, and Dawn Richard, 25, says JT’s sizzling wordplay is the sexiest thing he’s ever heard.

Speaking to me exclusively at London’s posh May Fair Hotel, Diddy, 40, said: “I can’t wait for people to hear this song.

“It’s called Shades and it’s going to blow you away. I’m the main vocalist on it and JT does the backing vocals and then unleashes a rap.  “It’s the first time he’s ever rapped on a song and you’re going to love it.

“It’s a very sexy song. It’s the sexiest song on the album.”

Talking of sexy, Diddy also revealed how the band, who release ace debut tune Hello Good Morning on Monday, got their name.

The bling king told me: “The girls and I were in a strip club down at the Super Bowl and we got kinda crazy in this club, giving out money.

“I had a couple of thousand notes and I was giving them away to the dancers.

“But then it got a little too crazy and the police had to come and help us get out of the club.

“Loads of people tried to follow us out and get in the car with us but we managed to get away.

“I said to the girls: ‘Damn, that was some dirty money.’

“And that’s how the name came about. I thought it was the perfect rock ’n’ roll-meets-R&B name.”

The debut disc, which is due to drop in September, also features collaborations from Jay-Z, 40, Drake, 23, and Chris Brown, 21.

Didz added: “Everyone’s trying to sound like our labelmates the Black Eyed Peas.

“Whenever you follow people and try to copy their blueprint, that’s when you fail.

“We have our own blueprint, our own style.

“We respect everyone else’s music but we’ve got something else to bring to the table. We’re refreshing and innovative.”
