In a video at AOL, there is a clip of Yung Joc rehearsing with Diddy for the BET Awards. So, I went to the BET Awards site and clicked on the "BET on Blast" graphic and they have a video available of the performance. Unfortunately, however, I cannot get the video to load right now. Will have to try back later.

Just watched it. Not bad, don't know that I like it as much as "It's Goin' Down." Joc has two verses and then they switch to Dope Boy Magic for the final verse.
Cassie was in at #6, her peak on the countdown thus far (just her 3rd day on the countdown overall). Julissa also said that you might see her on the red carpet tomorrow for the BET Awards, so watch for that.
The video for "I Know You See It" will be debuting tonight on 106 & Park.

These are a couple weeks old, but Sandra Rose has an album of pictures from the release party. Joc, Diddy, Block, Cheri Dennis, Patrick from B5 and others were there.

From AllHipHop.com:
Musicically, fans will be able to hear the rapper on upcoming remixes with Cassie, Cherish and Cheri Dennis as well as new singles from Trey Songs and Marques Houston. ...
Not one to leave a stone unturned, Joc addressed rumblings of a beef between him, Jeezy and D4L after the release of his single 'A Couple Grand,' saying there was no such issue when he did the song.
"No, I'm not dissing D4L and no I'm not dissing Jeezy. Just to let it be out there. You want to let it be known. I'm not dissin not a one of them n*****. I f**** with them n*****. Matter of fact. I just did the 'I'm Da Man' remix with Shawty Lo and Rick Ross."
I would guess that the remix with Cheri Dennis is "I Love You," the one with Cherish is "Do It To It" and the song with Marques Houston is "Like This." Not sure what the Cassie and Trey Songz ones would be. Is it possible that Joc is on the Bad Boy Remix of Me & U?

'It's Goin' Down' is also enjoying explosive success in the ringtone world. Throughout June, Yung Joc is being heavily featured across all major carriers including Cingular, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon, and Virgin Mobile USA. In addition, Sprint has two exclusive non-album full-tracks available for download through the Sprint Music Store.
No word on what they are called. E-mail me if you have Sprint. Thanks.

MTV is reporting:
Opening at #3 is rapper Yung Joc's inaugural LP New Joc City, which put up first-week sales of more than 148,000, besting Ice Cube's latest, Laugh Now, Cry Later, by nearly 4,000 copies. Cube controls the #4 spot, followed at #5 by the soundtrack to the Disney Channel original movie "High School Musical," with close to 87,000 scans. The Red Hot Chili Peppers' Stadium Arcadium is at #6 with 86,000 units sold.
I believe that this is a pretty good showing. Congrats.
I've had a little time to listen to New Joc City now, so I thought I'd post up some quick thoughts. To keep it simple, I would say that a lot of the album just isn't my type of music or the type of music I would normally listen to. Nonetheless, there are some tracks in there that I like that have made it into my playlist. Those are New Joc City (Intro), It's Goin' Down, Do Ya Bad, I Know You See It and 1st Time. It's Goin' Down is my favorite at this point, I'd say.
So, what about you? What are your favorite tracks?
