RBD are taking on the English-speaking world and Bow Wow is dropping his fifth album. Do these two industry veterans have what it takes to reinvent themselves? Take a look!

RBD - Rebels

RBD gained fame in Latin America after being popularized on the Mexican TV Show, Rebelde. While the group is hugely successful in the Spanish and Portuguese markets, Rebels is their first English language album. With an upbeat, hip-hop rhythm, RBD's music is catchy but certainly not revolutionary. Pick one of RBD's Spanish albums if you want to hear what they sounded like before they got lost in translation.

RBD - Rebels Fun Facts

This is RBD's first English-language album, but the group has already released both Spanish and Portuguese language albums.

The group's logo on the album cover was changed from white to pink on the day of its release.

RBD released a Spanish album called Celestial just a month before Rebels was released.

Bow Wow - The Price of Fame

Still a teenager (at least until March of 2007) but already an old pro in the music industry, Bow Wow has dropped his fifth album. The album is average at best and no amount of help from Chris Brown, Jermaine Dupri, Lil Scrappy and R. Kelly can save it. With so much talent coming up in the hip-hop world, Bow Wow's rap-by-numbers style isn't going to cut it.

Bow Wow - The Price of Fame Fun Facts

Nitti was a producer on The Price of Fame. He has also produced for Yung Joc and Young Capone.

The album debuted at number six on the Billboard 200 with an estimated 262,000 copies sold, which made it Bow Wow's third best selling album (or third worst, depending on how you look at it).

The first single from the album was "Shortie Like Mine" featuring Chris Brown and Jermaine Dupri.
