Plies Sells 1 Million Ringtones with "Shawty"
 Big Gates/Slip-N-Slide/Atlantic recording artist Plies has reached platinum status as his chart-topping ringtone for his smash single, "Shawty (Feat. T-Pain)," has sold over one million ringtones to date, according to Billboard's "Hot RingMasters" chart. The ringtone has been at the top of the chart for the past several weeks. What's more, the Florida-based rapper currently has seven songs from his debut album, "THE REAL TESTAMENT," on the "Hot RingMasters" chart. Plies has also announced the official launch of BidLong.com, an online community blog that expresses the rapper's concerns regarding the prison system in this country. The site not only features updates from Plies himself, but it will also be a forum for fans to express their own feelings about incarceration and personal stories. Plies recently released a viral music video for his song "100 Years," in which he addresses the injustices that people are being faced with in courtrooms on a daily basis; from inadequate legal council and excessive sentencing, to crooked law enforcement officials. In the wake of the Jena 6 case in Louisiana, the timing of this "call to action" could not be timelier. "I feel like the song is well needed," says Plies of "100 Years. There hasn't been a record that I can remember over the course of the last 10 years that has touched on the system like this song." Plies can currently be seen on the November cover of XXL Magazine, where he is featured as one of 10 "Leaders of the New School." Plies is also notably featured as #5 on MySpace Music's Top Charts today. For more information, visit www.pliesworld.com or www.myspace.com/plies.
