YUNG JOC IS #1 EVERYWHERE

05.25.06

Yung Joc's 'It's Goin' Down' is outta here! He's had over 9000 spins on the radio. He's on tour with T.I. and Bow Wow, and Tom Cruise even caught the Yung Joc buzz while promoting Mission Impossible 3 on BET's 106th and Park. This week the Block Entertainment/Bad Boy South artist charted #1 on Billboard?s Hot R&B/Hip-hop Songs. 'I feel like perseverance is paying off,' Joc commented when he heard the news. 'By me putting God at the head of my life I think it will give a lot of other cats the chance to see that if they do the same they can receive many of the same blessings.'

Blessings have also come via the mix-cd and ringtone world. Joc has already sold over 200,000 ringtones through Sprint and has two heavily promoted exclusive tracks in Sprint Music Store. Cingular placed the song in its top picks as did Verizon place it in their 'What's Hot' section. The song is also the featured artist on the Virgin Mobile web store and The SOURCE Mobile. It is currently the #1 selling ringtone on Jamster, and is one of T-Mobile store's Top 25 ringtones. 3GUpload blasted Joc's album cover to 3 million subscribers plus and he just performed on Yahoo, which will be broadcasted to over 20 million subscribers. 'My team is a hellified team,' Joc comments. 'From Block Ent to Bad Boy to Atlantic to Special Ops. Ain?t no other like it. They on the job. And if you think I?m lying, call Block.'

As ringtones soar through the roof, Joc prepares for his June 6th release of, NEW JOC CITY, by collaborating with DJ Drama for the 'Welcome to My Block' Gangsta Grillz mix-cd. Stay tuned for more Yung Joc as he preps to drop his self-produced second single 'I Know You See It' where he is also directing the song's video.
