Rapper-actor Bow Wow has landed a new job on BET. The "Like You" hit-maker was unveiled as one of four new hosts of hit weekday program "106 & Park" on Monday following the departure of longtime presenters Rocsi Diaz and Terrence J.

An excited Bow Wow tells AllHipHop.com, "I'm all about branding myself not just in music, but on TV and in movies. ... Get ready for a whole new world."

The young hip-hop star has been given a big vote of confidence from his record label boss, Bryan "Birdman" Williams.

The Cash Money Records mogul tells AllHipHop.com, "Bow has this in the bag! In addition to being a great rapper, he is a natural personality with great star power and style. ... I couldn't be more proud."

Bow Wow, 25, is joined on the new-look "106 & Park" by TV personalities Miss Mykie, Paigion and Shorty Da Prince.
