New York's Finest Come Out to Support Chris Brown

If you were wondering how to get every teenage girl from New York, New Jersey and Connecticut in one room, wonder no more. R&B/pop phenom Chris Brown and co-headliner Bow Wow corraled an estimated 18,000 prepubescent girls into Madison Square Garden on Thursday night.

Lil Mama and Soulja Boy Tell Em warmed up the crowd while tweens danced in the aisles. Bow Wow made his way on stage via a prop resembling a G5 airplane. The rapper rocked the crowd before bringing out his 'Face Off' partner, Omarion. The two bounced around stage performing the first single, 'Girlfriend,' off the collaborative effort. Omarion danced in and out of two sequined Michael Jackson-esque jackets before exiting the stage.

All warmed up, an eager crowd counted down while watching an animated film of Brown fighting monsters on his way to the Garden. Like all great performers, the Prince of R&B/pop made a monstrous entrance. He dropped in from the rafters and launched into his smash hit, 'Wall to Wall.'

After hours of ear-popping explosions and yelping, the content crowd were treated to New York's finest. Diddy and 50 Cent showed some major love for the singer. Diddy strolled on stage and jumped into renditions of 'It's All About the Benjamins' and 'Last Night.' 50 and crew -- donning dollar bill green shirts -- surprised the crowd and performed his hit, 'I Get Money.' Dipset's young emcee Juelz Santana was also in the house and joined Brown on 'Run It!'

New Releases: Wu-Tang Clan Drops '8 Diagrams'

Veteran hip-hop collective Wu-Tang Clan pulled out the mighty sword and managed to release yet another dark, gritty, noteworthy album, despite recent squabbles. '8 Diagrams,' the group's first release since 2001's 'Iron Flag,' hits stores today and features all eight members' skills over RZA's elaborate beats. Unfortunately, like any family -- which is to say, dysfunctional -- members of the Wu have recently expressed discontent, causing fans to wonder if the release was really a collaborative effort.

"RZA is trying to create too much of a orchestra ... He's trying to do too much of this guitar s---, like he got a guitar on his f---ing back," Raekwon told radio personality Miss Info in a recent interview. "And our whole s--- is that we don't want that and the fans don't know us for that." Let's hope the Wu can squash their internal beef in time for a tour.

Other notable releases include Birdman's '5 Star Stunna,' Bow Wow and Omarion's 'Face Off,' Beanie Sigel's 'The Solution' and 'Umbrella' songwriter The Dream's 'Love Hate.'

Bow Wow Rushed to Local Cincinnati Hospital

Bow Wow was rushed to the hospital Thursday following the first date of the 'Exclusive' Holiday tour, which the rap star co-headlines with R&B sensation Chris Brown.

Bow Wow was taken to a local hospital in Cincinnati immediately following his performance. According to a statement released from the rapper's camp, Bow Wow "is in good spirits and awaiting the doctors' diagnosis, which appears to be a combination of stress and exhaustion."

There's no word on how many dates the rapper will miss, but he plans on sitting out the Chicago show. In the meantime, Bow Wow assured his fans that he "loves them and will be sure to come back to Chicago soon!"

Bow Wow and Omarion Will 'Face Off' in December

According to the intro of the leaked track 'Hood Star,' Bow Wow and Omarion's upcoming album, 'Face Off,' is "what the world has been waiting for." Good news for fans: the wait is whittled down to just two more months. The duo will release their highly-anticipated collaborative effort in December.

'Hood Star' touts the massive success between the two and with zero exaggeration given that the pair's last joint effort, 'Let Me Hold You' -- the first single from Bow Wow's 2005 album, 'Wanted' -- peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was that song that earned Bow Wow his first-ever Top 10 single, and Omarion -- formerly of B2K -- his first Top 10 as a solo artist.

As if a Bow Wow-Omarion album weren't heavyweight enough, 'Face Off' will also feature a slew of chart toppers, including Ciara, Timbaland, Jermaine Dupri and Akon.
