Ying Yangs to Drop New Album This Summer

YING YANG TWINS #1 INDIE ARTIST ON MYSPACE, UNLEASH VIDEO FOR THEIR NEW SINGLE "DROP" & ANNOUNCE SUMMER ALBUM RELEASE
Multi-platinum selling artist, the Ying Yang Twins, announce a late Summer release for their forthcoming full length entitled "Ying Yang for President," due out on TVT Records late this summer. The albums first single "Drop" leaked on Myspace and has been played an amazing 31 million times. The ATL duo is the #1 Indie artist on Myspace. "Drop" is produced by Isaac "Ike Dirty" Hayes III (son of R&B legend Isaac Hayes) - the electro club-banger that is setting dance floors on fire. The video was filmed in their hometown with Kaine and D Roc holding down a huge party atmosphere throughout the clip - an indication of the energy to expect from the Ying Yang camp in 2008. It was directed by up and comer Morocco, who had directed hot clips for Twista and Dude N' Nem. The video premiered on Yahoo! last Friday.

The Atlanta duo burst on to the scene with their sexy and quirky club hit "Whistle While You Twerk" in 2000 followed by their first major radio hit "Say Yi Yi" in 2001. After signing to TVT Records, the group released a string of hits that put the group and Southern Hip-Hop on top of the charts. They included "Wait (The Whisper Song)," "Salt Shaker" and "Get Low" with label mate Lil Jon, "Badd" with Jim Jones, "Ms. New Booty" with Bubba Sparks, "Shake" with Pitbull, and "Dangerous" with Wyclef. Their 2003 album U.S.A (United State Of Atlanta) is a an absolute classic pushing the boundaries of hip-hop to include house, soul, electro-dance and the duo's trademark Yin(g) and Yang personas.

Having sold nearly 4 Million albums over the span of their short career, the Ying Yang Twins have already achieved international superstardom – more recently by taking part in the first ever major hip-hop event in Tapei in 2007.
