He’s all grown up now, and he’s a little stressed out.After a Thursday night concert, Bow Wow was rushed to a local hospital. His label says he was suffering from “stress and exhaustion”. He’s been on tour with Chris Brown, Sean Kingston, and Soulja Boy.

The rest of the acts were headed to Chicago, but Bow Wow wasn’t planning to hit the stage with them Friday night. His rep says he’s making plans to come back to Chicago soon.

Chris Brown Still Tops Chart

Chris Brown’s Kiss Kiss hit has claimed a third week at the top of the singles chart. The track held off competition from Alicia Keys’ No One, which jumped up a spot to number two on the new chart. I Like His Song Wall to Wall as well. What’s excited me is that I always love it when there are fresh new stars that top the charts rather than having the likes of Justin Timberlake, 50 Cent, Jay-Z and Kanye West dominate the charts. It argues well for the music industry to have new stars on the scene like Soulja Boy and Sean Kingston. Timbaland’s Apologize slides to three, while Soulja Boy’s Crank That (Soulja Boy) refuses to slip out of the top five - it holds steady at four. Three week’s at the top is like it has to be great music and people are buying the CDs a lot give the number the thrust to remain on top of the singles chart.

Sean Kingston’s ‘Beautiful’ Summer

Sean Kingston’s summer hit Beautiful Girls continues to set the pace at the top of the U.S. charts, claiming a fourth week at number one. The Stand By Me revamp tops the new Billboard Hot 100, while Fergie, Timbaland and Plain White T’s stay fixed to numbers two, three and four. Great to have a your song at number one for four consecutive weeks top the charts. But what I’d like to know that with there being so many American Idol winners like Jordin Sparks and Kelly Clarkson why don’t we see them on the top of the charts, are they mere performers on the stage and can never convert their stunning wins in the TV show into major break-threw in album sales and create charting topping numbers. Looks like they can sing previous songs and sound good in the studios but can’t sing new songs until they have been sung by a Britney Spears or Gwen or other leading music artist. Poor that new talent is not achieving the heights and fulfilling the promise they earlier showed.
