Street Dreams is the second studio album by American rapper Fabolous. The album was released on March 4, 2003, by Desert Storm Records and Elektra Records. It was received moderately from a critical standpoint and was a minor commercial success. It reached #3 on the Billboard 200 with 185,000 copies sold in its first week.
It had four charting singles, but only "Into You", which featured Tamia (and an alternate version, featuring Ashanti) and "Can't Let You Go" were major successes. Produced by Just Blaze and guest vocals from Lil' Mo and Mike Shorey, "Can't Let You Go" reached number one on the Rhythmic Top 40, and number four on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. "Into You" with the help of Ashanti/Tamia also reached number four on the Billboard Hot 100. The remix of "Trade It All", which featured P. Diddy and Jagged Edge reached number twenty on the Billboard Hot 100.
It sold over 1.3 million copies as reported by Billboard, but it was originally certified platinum by Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on September 22, 2003, because of selling over one million copies by that time on Billboard.
