Friday 06.01:
Fabolous is in the house with a 1st Look at his new video, "Make Me Better," which happens to feature Ne-Yo, so it's like a two-fer. And... you voted for it on TRL. You heard it all season long on Idol. Now you can hear Daughtry perform "Home" and his breakthrough hit "It's Not Over" live. Oh. And who's here to hang out and wrap up Spankin' New Music Week? Gym Class Heroes (insert freak-out here). Oh yes, it's gonna be that good.
