(5/29/03, 4 p.m. ET) -- Sometimes you just can't get enough of a good thing. And that may be the case for rapper Fabolous who recently released the new single, "Into You," with Tamia. The original version of the song that appears on Fabolous' Street Dreams features Ashanti.
Meanwhile, the first single from Street Dreams, "Can't Let You Go" featuring Lil' Mo and Mike Shorey, is currently Number Two on the urban Radio & Records National Airplay chart.
Street Dreams has sold more 665,000 copies since its release in March.
In related news, Fabolous will be opening for 50 Cent and Jay-Z on several dates during the Roc The Mic tour this summer.
Tamia is also enjoying success with her single "Officially Missing You" which is Number 19 on the urban AC Radio & Records National Airplay chart. The song was produced by former Murder Inc. Records in-house producer 7 Aurelius.
The pair soon got to work and Tamia ended up recording a song that was very dear to Aurelius. "The record that I did with him, 'Officially Missing You,' he's had it for a long time," Tamia said. "And he told me he was waiting to give it to the right person. He wrote it when he was homeless in Los Angeles. So it's like a very personal record to him. It was kinda like handing over his baby."
Tamia will release her new album, Still, on July 15. The set was produced by Mario Winans, Babyface, 7 Aurelius, Jermaine Dupri, R. Kelly, Linda Perry, and Shep Crawford.
