    I Want To Work For Diddy (TV Series)
    Michael Picton – Composer



    Diddy. He only needs one name, but he needs a virtual army of help to keep his legendary empire of music, acting, fashion, sports, fragrance and television running. The ultimate secret weapon in that army? Diddy's personal assistant. After an exhaustive nationwide search, VH1 found 13 determined young men and women with the raw potential to assist and exist with one of the world's most demanding CEOs. Each one-hour episode showcases a range of challenges, many based on the real life experiences of Diddy's previous assistants. In addition to completing these tasks, the applicants must also do their best to impress an intimidating panel: self-made business prodigy and Executive Vice President of Warner Music Group Kevin Liles, Bad Boy marketing executive and former assistant Capricorn and Diddy's ultimate henchman, Phil Robinson. Throughout the series Diddy will share his business acumen with viewers by setting up a series of challenges that run the gamut from "The Art of Multitasking" to "No Bitchassness Allowed".

    "...the most entertaining part might be the opening credits, which spoof the titles of a James Bond movie and imagine life with Diddy as high-flying, death-defying work." - Joanna Weiss, Boston Globe

    Michael Picton composed the theme music for VH1's latest reality TV hit.
