On last night's season finale of MTV's "Making His Band," Wilson's Jamareo Artis was picked as bass player when Sean "Diddy" Combs' new band Dirty Money goes out on tour.
In fact, just before he chose Jamereo from among two other bass players, Diddy said that Jamareo was the kind of person for whom he created the show, a talented someone who just needed a break to make it big.
