They may no longer be together, but Sean "P. Diddy" Combs has nothing but love for Jennifer Lopez — and her butt known 'round the world.

The music mogul, who dated J.Lo for two years back in the late '90s (the couple officially broke up in 2001), told Access Hollywood Live [via Us Weekly] that he was lucky to have had J.Lo in his life, saying, "She is one of the greatest I've ever seen," and waxing poetic about her behind. "I mean, it's great. It's a work of art," he said. "It's something that will go down in history, for real."

How does Kim Kardashian's famous derriere compare? Apparently, it doesn't! "No disrespect to Kim and Kanye, but that thing right there, that thing is something special," Combs said.

Well, then. High praise, indeed!

Update: J.Lo has some things to say about Diddy's comments! She admitted that she'll always be grateful to the rapper for their time together, saying, "I love that he can be supportive of me so many years later, and that there's still so much mutual respect, admiration, and love there." She also dismissed criticism of her recent hit "Booty. "This is good for women," she told Access Hollywood. "You have to know that you don't disappear after you're 28 years old. You can be here, you can be vital and young and sexy and feel good about yourself."
