Joaquin Phoenix Taps Diddy for Rap Album

Can this possibly be real? Joaquin Phoenix asks Diddy for help creating the former actor’s first rap album, in a leaked scene from the documentary about Phoenix’s retreat from Hollywood, I’m Still Here. But the hip-hop mogul reacts angrily to Phoenix’s request, implying that actors think they can easily move into music without much financial backing. "When you go make a movie, you got money to make a movie, right?” Diddy says. “Lights, right? Lights, motherfucker, lights!... Craft services, trailers, makeup, hair, DP, gaffers.” An album requires the “same thing. Studio, engineer, me. ME. Speakers. Do you have any money?" There has been much speculation about how much of the Casey Affleck-directed documentary is sincere versus satire.
