Screamfest '07, one of this summer's hottest concert series, hit an all time high last night at Madison Square Garden in New York City, as the tour's stars made music history with several over-the-top performances from some of today's musical giants. Screamfest '07 has successfully proven to be a much needed injection of pure energy and enthusiasm among music fans.

The New York City show made music history last night, as very special and surprise guests took the stage throughout the evening. New comers Maleek and Yung Berg kicked off the night's festivities. The magic started when P. Diddy made a stellar cameo during Yung Joc's performance of "It's Goin' Down." During Ciara's second set, the songstress brought out 50 Cent for their song "Can't Leave Him Alone." The night's pinnacle performance was during T.I.'s second set and the last set of the evening. The King of the South solidified his throne and proved he was King of New York by bringing out Jay Z, Kanye West, 50 Cent, P. Diddy, Wyclef Jean, and Swizz Beatz.

The tour is now in its sixth installment in the critically acclaimed SCREAM TOUR concert series that has, in the past, featured everyone from Ne-Yo to Bow Wow, Chris Brown to Omarion. The SCREAM TOUR has built a reputation for bringing together the best of the best in the worlds of rap and R&B to rock the house "LIVE" for one unforgettable night for thousands of urban youth across the country.
