As
we reported yesterday,
The Boombox hosted today's premiere of the latest video from Day26's second album, "Forever in a Day." Check it out below:
This is better than I was expecting (given that the video premiere was announced days before it was actually happening). It's a pretty cool video. Despite the note included along with the video on The Boombox, I was told by a source at the label that
"Stadium Music" is not their second single. From what I understand, it's primarily a video for the internet. So, definitely take it for what it is: a bonus video between their first and second singles.
Indeed,
Qwanell "Que" Mosley of Day26 announced earlier this month that the second single would be "Your Heels.". Two days later, the
group's MySpace featured a poll asking fans to vote on the second single. "Stadium Music" was not included on this list, while "Your Heels" was.
As of now, the results of the poll place "So Good" in the lead with 33%. "Your Heels" is second with 29%, followed by "Girlfriend" (16%), "Shawty Wats Up" (14%) and "Then There's You" (8%).
A bulletin from
Day26's MySpace announced that the new video for their song, "Stadium Music," will be premiered on AOL's
The Boombox on May 29 at 12:00 PM. They don't include a time zone, but I'd guess Eastern.
The all of a sudden release of this leads me to believe it's not what you might expect as a normal music video. Perhaps it is performance footage or a very low budget project. It is not their second single.
According to a bulletin from
their MySpace, Day26 will be appearing at FYE in Dublin, Ohio on May 23 at 2 PM. The store is located at 5043 Tuttle Crossing Boulevard.
Day26 is featured on a new track from Saint Louis rapper Murphy Lee. Check it out below.
The nominations for the BET Awards 2009 have been announced and Day26 has earned a nomination in the Best Group category. The show will air at 8 PM ET on June 28 on BET.
On Sunday,
Qwanell "Que" Mosley of Day26 announced on that "Your Heels" would be the second single from the group's latest album, "Forever in a Day."
However, a poll has now popped up on their MySpace
asking fans to vote for their second single. I would tend to believe it has already been picked, but perhaps not.
At any rate, there are five choices on the poll. They are:
"Girlfriend"
"Shawty Wats Up"
"So Good"
"Then There's You"
"Your Heels"
Out of these, I probably lean towards "Shawty Wats Up" right now, as long as T-Pain will do the video. At the time of writing, they have received 473 votes. "So Good" is in the lead with 32%, but "Your Heels" closely follows at 30%. "Girlfriend" (16%), "Shawty Wats Up" (15%) and "Then There's You" (8%) round out the bottom of the list.
At the beginning of the video below below, from Brian Angel of Day26, you can hear a snippet from a song called "I Hustle." It's by Cash in Associates, an act he's signed to his Ambassador Way Entertainment label, and he's featured on it.
On
his Twitter, Qwanell "Que" Mosley announced that "Your Heels" would be the second single from Day26's "Forever in a Day."
The album was released on April 14. The first single, "Imma Put It On Her" charted as high as 79 on The Billboard Hot 100, matching the peak of "Got Me Going," the first single from the group's first album.
Here's the full tweet:

According to
their MySpace, Day26 will be performing with Bow Wow at the Apollo Theater in New York, NY. You can
pick up tickets at Ticketmaster.
Yung Joc's Twitter offered a
download link for a version of Day26's "Imma Put It On Her" that is the same as the album version, except that Joc's verse is different.
According to the
Bad Boy Publishing Twitter, the video for Day26's "Imma Put It On Her" (featuring Diddy and Yung Joc) hit #1 on the countdown on BET's 106 & Park.
The latest video blog from Brian Angel of Day26, embedded below, features a song from Cam Cali, an artist signed to Angel's Ambassador Way Entertainment. The song is called "W8" and it features Robert Curry, Angel's bandmate in Day26.
