The second single off of "Hustlenomics" has been decided. It's "Bottle Poppin" featuring Gorilla Zoe. As I write, the
help Joc pick his next single poll on
his MySpace stands as such:
"Bottle Poppin" - 41%
"Hell Yeah" - 35%
"Play Your Cards" - 24%
You can listen to a snippet of this from
his MySpace.
From the
press release put out today:
In addition to its CD and digital release, "HUSTLENOMICS" will mark Bad Boy Records' first-ever release in the new MVI format. An MVI is a DVD that contains the full album, portable music files, video content, and interactive features. The PC/MAC-compatible package will include a bonus CD, a never-before-seen video interview with Joc, exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, a making-the-video special for "Coffee Shop," digital extras (such as screen savers, buddy icons, and wallpapers), U-Myx and UrTone (which allow fans to create their own custom remix and ringtone of "Coffee Shop"), plus much more.

There is a poll on
Yung Joc's MySpace where you can vote for what you'd like to see as his next single. Here are your choices:
"Bottle Poppin" featuring Gorilla Zoe (listen to a snippet on his MySpace)
"Hell Yeah" featuring Diddy (snippet on his MySpace)
"Play Your Cards" (you can listen to the full track in our audio player)
I haven't heard the full version of "Hell Yeah", only the one on his MySpace which cuts off before Diddy's verse, presumably. From what I've heard, all 3 of the tracks strike me as OK tracks. Joc's songs tend to grow on me. I don't like them that much at first, but then as time goes by, I like them more. It's strange. Right now, I'll give the vote to "Hell Yeah", hoping that Diddy delivers. After that, I'll go with "Bottle Poppin".
As I write, "Bottle Poppin" has the lead at 43%, followed by "Hell Yeah" at 34% and "Play Your Cards" at 23%.
His MySpace has a couple of new snippets:
"Hell Yeah" by featuring Diddy (no, Diddy isn't featured in the snippet... that probably means that Diddy has a verse, rather than just ad libs)
"Bottle Poppin" featuring Gorilla Zoe
