The rapper credits the Stronger singer for helping him rediscover his love of hip-hop music after watching a recent concert.

P. Diddy said in his video diary on youtube.com: “The other night, I went to the Kanye West concert with nothing but high expectations.

“The concert changed my life. I’m not going to lie. I was so impressed and inspired. It was beautiful, man – and I fell in love with hip-hop again.

“I want to say thank you, Kanye, for giving me that. You have given us a gift. That’s from one brother to another, sometimes you’ve got to say that.”

P. Diddy – real name Sean Combs – said his love of hip-hop music had faded after 12 years of success.

He added: “Time is going on, I’ve had a lot of fame and sold a lot of records and sometimes you feel a bit uninspired so you fall out of love a bit, you sill love hip-hop but you’re not as in love as the first time you met it. Then I went to the Kanye West concert.”

Kanye’s sell-out tour has been attended by a galaxy of stars, including Ryan Phillippe, Gwen Stefani and husband Gavin Rossdale, and Jamie Foxx.
