Mariah Carey 'Angesl Advocate' Album Tracklisting!

According to where I uncovered this information, the picture to your left is not the actual album cover for 'Angels Advocate' but the tour book cover. For the last few months we have heard all these stories about a remix album for Mariah's recent album, 'Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel'. For the most part these stories have been true. The only real thing that was off was the rumored guests set to appear. But below you will see that this album is so star studded; it looks more like a soundtrack than a Mariah Carey album.

You can expect 'Angels Advocate' in stores on February 23. The album is led by the singles, 'Angels Cry' featuring Ne-Yo and 'Up Out My Face' featuring Nicki Minaj. Both singles have videos that have already been shot. Pictures from both sets have appeared online. Below you can check out the star studded tracklisting.

Trey Songz Joins Jay-Z On Tour!

First he lands two songs in the top five of the R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart this week ("I Invented Sex" at No. 2 and "Say Aah" at No 3). Now, R&B crooner Trey Songz has been added to Jay-Z's "Blueprint 3" tour, an Atlantic Records representative confirms.

Joining Young Jeezy, who is also a supporting act, Songz will open the second leg of the stateside trek starting Feb. 20 at the Bank Atlantic Center in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Songz is currently scheduled to perform all 23 dates, wrapping up March 27 at the Pearl Concert Theater in Las Vegas.

Songz is nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Contemporary R&B Album for his latest set, "Ready;" the album has sold 438,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen Soundscan.

Damon Dash Speaks On Jay-Z Fallout!

Roc-A-Fella Records co-founder Damon "Dame" Dash recently discussed his falling out with Jay-Z and explained why rap marketing pioneer Steve Stoute played a role in their estranged relationship.

According to Dash, tensions began to rise with Jay during their run with Rocawear Clothing.

"It was me and Jay and the two Russians voting on every decision, and I controlled the vote, because I always had Jay's vote." The two Russians were Alex Bize and Norton Cher, old-school clothing slingers from Manhattan's garment district who ran the day-to-day operations. "But one day," Dash says, "they brought me to a hotel." He takes his time with the story, replays it daintily. It's clear that reliving the scene is as painful as it is ebulliently cathartic. "I said, 'Why are we meeting at a hotel?' and it was because they didn't want anyone to hear me yelling. That was the day they told me they didn't want [celebrity photographer] Mario Testino to shoot the ads." Instead, they were going with someone cheaper, and they were going in a different direction altogether. "Here the Russians were telling me how to cater to my people! I wanted [Rocawear]
to be sold at Bergdorf Goodman's, not Dr. Jay's!" says Dash. "In the end, Steve Stoute was making money off them. Jay stopped listening to me and started listening to him." Shortly thereafter, Jay-Z made their separation formal when he bought out Dash's stake in Rocawear for $30 million. (Esquire)

Former Roc-A-Fella artist Beanie Sigel recently accused Dash and Jay of shady business practices with Rocawear and his own clothing line, State Property.

"The clothing line that I had, I had 20 percent of State Property clothing, it's me, Jay, Dame [Dash] and the two other Russians that had the Rocawear owned State Property because I gave them an idea, pitched it to Dame at the time -- [Dame] was taking all the money from Rocawear and putting it into all his little companies, he did the same thing to State Property."
