"It was like we chose each other," Omarion says of his new boss Timbaland. The singer is finally speaking out about his recent move from Sony to Timbo's Mosley Music Group and the admiration he has for his new mentor. "He's a great producer, and he's really at the top of his game right now," Omarion said. "I can't ask for a better person to guide me. We did 'Ice Box.' It wasn't enough for us to really build a solid relationship. But I've got to spend time with him, and we have a strong relationship. It's the biggest blessing that has happened to me musically."

And as O boasts about his new label situation, the singer makes sure to clear up rumors that he was dropped from Sony, where he spent the early years of his career. "I asked to be released," O explains. A release is different from a drop. When an artist is dropped, usually they haven't brought any revenue to the company. As you know, I've been with that company for a long time, roughly over six years. Throughout B2K and my solo albums, revenue was still brought in. An artist like me could never get dropped. How did I get dropped and I still ended up in a great situation?"

Ricardo "Ricky Romance" Thornton and his younger brother, former B2K member Raz-B (whose real name is De'Mario Monte Thornton), have accused producer and manager Chris Stokes of molesting them, intimating that other members of the R&B group, which disbanded in 2004, were victims as well. On December 24, videos were posted on YouTube in which Ricky Romance claims that he, his brother and possibly other members of B2K (Omarion, Lil' Fizz and J-Boog) were forced into inappropriate sexual relations with their manager, Chris Stokes, record label representatives and one another.

The homemade videos detail several conversations between Romace and the sister, mother and father of former Immature singer and fellow Stokes client Marques Houston, discussing the alleged sexual abuse. The video including Romance saying, "Chris [Stokes] made me take showers with the other boys" and "[Stokes] molested my brother, and he molested me." Romance also implicates Houston in the incidents.

In a phone call heard on one video, a man the accusing pair claim is Stokes says, "I don't do that anymore ... That was me years ago ... I just don't do that in my life anymore." However, in an official statement, Stokes denied the accusations, adding, "I have recently stopped financially supporting both individuals along with assisting them with their criminal and legal matters, which leads me to believe they are resentful and looking to benefit financially from this."

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.'

Artist: Bow Wow and Omarion
Song: 'Girlfriend'
Why You Should Listen: With millions of girls wishing they could have the title, the pair boast about their girlfriend in the new single off their album, 'Face Off.'

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.
