The summer’s hottest hip-hop concert ticket is here – as two of Def Jam’s biggest stars, Atlanta’s multi-platinum Young Jeezy and 21 year-old Chicago sensation Jeremih, join with New Orleans’ own Lil Wayne for the “Young Money” tour, opening in Scranton, PA on July 27th. The month-long 21-city North American package tour, also featuring Drake, Soulja Boy and other guests tba, will wrap up in Dallas on August 23rd.

Jeremih, whose self-titled album debuted at #6 on the Billboard Top 200 chart and #1 on the R&B chart, exploded into music history this spring with “Birthday Sex,” the most played song on MySpace for 6 weeks in a row. With over 95 million MySpace plays to date, “Birthday Sex” rose to #1 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, #4 on the Hot 100, and #5 on the Hot Digital Songs chart (the single is approaching platinum), and boasts more than 100 million total audience at radio.

Young Jeezy released his most recent album, The Recession, in September 2008 – his second consecutive #1 Sound­scan debut on the Billboard 200 albums chart (after 2006’s The Inspiration). The Recession, which also went straight to #1 at iTunes, spun off a string of hit singles starting with “Put On” featuring Kanye West, #1 Rap and #1 R&B, and a #12 pop hit as well. The Grammy-nominated song was the second-highest charting Hot 100 hit of Jeezy’s career, and was also nominated for the People’s Champ Award at the BET Hip Hop Awards in October 2008. Jeezy’s next album is set to drop in Fall 2009.
